I am not able to connect the Stratux to this LG Gpad8 under Wi-Fi for some reason.    It shows up under  /.Settings>Wf-Fi>Devices and I will manually click and shows it as connected.  When I launch IFly app and go > Menu >About> >Connected Devices  all it shows it "Not Connected"  

If I go to Setup>  ADS/B  it shows (Waiting)   Clicking on that brings up the data page.  Getting No Heartbeats GPS, Receiving tower - or anything else.  Pressing OPTIONS  Then Reset / Reconnect does nothing. 

Anyone got any ideas?

Did you click Menu - About - Connected Devices - Select Wireless Device - Stratux/FlightBox (or Auto-Detect)?

Yes..  Tried both.  When I switched to Stratux Wi-Fi and it connected, bot a message on home screen (not w/in iFly) -  "Unable to Connect to the Internet".   Aside from that, nothing.

Yes, you are unable to connect to the internet. You're connected to your Stratux, not the internet.

Yes....Thanks you.   I know that.  Question is why is Stratux not being recognized by the iFly app on the LG tablet.   It works just fine on an older iPad and works fine with my 720.   My iPad is an older iPad 2, so it very slow to respond.   I want to use the tablet as a back up to the 720.   This one has me stumped.....  Has there been any update to the Stratus software?   Could it be that the GPS in the Stratux receiver is in conflict with the internal GPS of the tablet?  Or could it be there are just certain tablets the app just isn't compatible with?
