Is SkyDemon Offline with PAW

[mdp54]

I have just received my PAW Classic and am testing and learning, all good so far, however.

Once the PAW is switched on and my tablet is set to the PilotAware Wi-Fi signal does that mean that I can only use SkyDemon in offline mode?

I have tried to access Pooley's plates but it says I'm currently offline although I have a 4G phone & data signal.

I'm guessing this is a phone/tablet issue but does anyone know of a workaround?
Many thanks

That does not sound right 
If you have a cellular ipad, you should still get 3/4g access with Pilotaware connected

Can You confirm the version of PilotAware you are running, early versions did have an issue, but since 20170721, this should be fine

Do you still have the 3g 4g symbol in top left corner with Pilotaware connected?

Thx

Lee thanks for your reply.

My PAW version number is 20170721

As I connect to the PAW Wi-Fi I get a warning that comes up saying "Internet may not be available" which it isn't, a check on both my phone and tablet network sim status show that when connected to PAW WiFi that the 'Mobile Network State' is shown as disconnected. If I then turn Wi-Fi off the mobile network status changes to 'Connected'. The 4g symbol appears and disappears consistent with the mobile network state.

Thanks for your time,

Hi Mike,

OK, so this seems android specific.
On IOS, it detects that the PAW is not a router, so continues to use its 3G/4G interface for outgoing traffic.
I presume that there must be a way for Android to detect this too ?

thx
