[Live-devel] Problems on iPhone when on cell network

Hi, I've had Live555 working on a iPhone as a RTSP client for some time.
I have noticed that sometimes on some iPhone's when they are on the cell 
network I can not connect to the server. When this happens I've always 
been able to shutdown my app, launch mail or safari to kick the 
connection into gear and then switch back to my app and things work fine.
Since my code is just demo prototype stuff I've never really 
investigated what is going on when it can't connect but perhaps this is 
a clue.

Have you ever had this problem on a client trying to connect to an RTSP server?  Your post made me realize that I did not explicitly state that I am trying to make my iPhone be a client accessing a remote RTSP server.  The server works fine and is not under my control, but I am getting the errors for client code running on my iPhone.  Any ideas?
