    I have a simple game that uses custom NetworkLobbyManager. When I connect 3 android phones in local network, one client always gets disconnected after some time. It's usually between 30 seconds and 1.5 minute (rarely a few minutes) after the online scene is started.

    What could possibly cause this?

    I've seen people having similar issue with matchmaker because of the bandwidth limit, but I guess this cannot be the case in local multiplayer. I don't have any commands/rpc calls inside the Update(), less than 20 syncvars. I also tried to to keep it occupied so there won't be any longer gap without communication, didn't work. What else should I try?

    If you are on 5.3 or 5.3.1 this is a bug I believe. I am only having this issue on 5.3.x
    5.2.4 doesn't have this issue.

    I'v encountered the same problem when played on my Android phones, but rarely happened on PCs, how could this happen? Does anybody have some solutions?
