Iotawatt frequently disconnects and is not able to connect again.
I see this in the logs where it gets assigned a 169.254 IP address.
After the next restart it still doesnt find it.
This was the state from July 14. until today when we discovered it.
Restarted the rasberryPI and then Iotawatt was able to connect again and the right IP is shown in the logs. All the data are persisted and they are now added to influxdb.
What could be the cause of this state?
The iotawatt is very close to the router and it is in a plastic cabinet.
