None of 1.4.x releases worked for me in terms of WiFi hotspot connection to the mount .
I gave up on the WiFi and DIY'ed an EQDir cable which works well.
Currently using 1.4.3 (RPI4) with latest updates. All is well.

No, actually, it didn't work.
It's odd... After a fresh flash and setup, wifi hotspot would work.
Could work for hours or even days but then would become extremely flaky and then unusable..
I tried to troubleshoot but was not successful.
I use an EQDir cable now. One extra cable but it works.

I connected Ekos to the AZ GTi mount successfully, but the goto actions seem irrelevant.
For example, when moving only in altitude, it also moves in azimuth (is it using equatorial mode?).
When connecting with the Android app, it does say Alt mode.
In the meantime I am trying to connect via stellarmate hotspot using the Station Mode in the SynScan Pro app. The connection was successful and I was able to control the mount while on stellarmate hotspot using SynScan. But I am not able to connect Ekos using either the EQMOD or AltAz indi drivers. I have set the IP address to 192.168.4.1 and port to 11880. Please advise.
If you connected AZ-GTI to StellarMate, then AZ-GTi got assigned a different IP address (maybe 10.250.250.2 or something like that, you need to figure out which IP address it was assigned)
