I just checked my mount has the most recent driver so its definitely the wifi connection is causing all my problems. I will switch to usb and hopefully that will work. I also wanted to ask if you used any other program to connect to ekos like eqmod or something like that?

You mean the firmware of the mount and not the indi driver right? Also have you tried the wireless connection as well or only via usb?

I have a very light payload atm only around 2.2kg incl the dovetail bar so that shouldnt be the problem. I do think it is the poor connection between the mount and my laptop.

Well i just ran the setup wizard in ekos to connect my mount and chose the star adventurer gti option and wifi connection. Perhaps i need a dedicated driver for it like eqmod you think?

i havent tried that yet but im going to when the weather allows it. as far as my guiding stats/ settings are fine you think? 2500ms pulse length seems a bit too much or?

hi there im using a star adventurer Gti over wifi connection and i keep getting an error message which also affects my guiding i reckon… i was just wondering if anyone had this same error message: [WARNING] dispatch_command): serial port read failed for 200ms (1 retries), verify mount link.
Also my guiding is around 13 arcmins which is terrible even after a proper polar aligment ( 2arcsec total error) [attachment=17199]IMG_4582.jpeg[/attachment
