My EZB controller keeps disconnecting after a couple of minutes and issues the message below, any ideas as to the problem?
Comm Err: System.IO.IOException: Unable to read data from the transport connection: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond. ---> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond

Does it make the startup sound when powered on? Does it make a connection sound when ARC connects?
Lastly, try removing some controls and see if one of them is timing out the connection. Or at least pause the controls before connecting. Diagnose the issue with process of elimination
I'm told that the new v4/2 ezb is much faster and this is not an issue (unless it's your system that is slow).
I suggest upgrading your ez-b with EZ-B v4/2 Comm Upgrade
Also, to answer dave's question - i doubt you'll ever be able to flood the data channel on an iotiny or ezb v4.x/2... they're remarkable
ARC has grown sooooooooooooo much with features that the first generation EZ-B has trouble keeping up. Sometimes silliness happens with the first gen ez-b v4. I'm pretty excited for you to experience the ez-b v4.x/2!
I'm going to make a quick video today on how to perform the upgrade. Nothing fancy, but at least it'll demonstrate how to do
