When I first received my JD, I contacted EZ-Robot support because when connecting to the example actions, he would violently jerk and twist. The neck servo broke the second time I executed (EZ-Robot quickly shipped out a replacement).
Jeremie provided information about calibrating & fine tuning the servos and although completing the steps did improve performance quite a bit, I am still getting a violent spasm when executing the actions on the 1st exe. only. All additional executions work fine.
My router is only a few weeks old. We have the fastest residential internet Comcast offers, I never have any issues with connectivity on any other device.
I just put together a quick video showing the spasm issue: http://www.screencast.com/t/5vphNsQCC2N0 . Please review to see if you can point out what I am doing wrong. I show my settings and JD reacting to execution.

For example, if you have a "Rest" position created in" Auto Position" and that's the position you want it to go to when you connect to it, put that command control in the "Connection Established Cmd" box. You might also want to try and leave the robot in this position when you disconnect from it.
I hope this helps you out.

@bhouston I'm sorry, but I do not understand. Please give more detail I am very new to EZ-Robot.
Thanks,
In the upper left hand corner of your ARC screen is the 'Connection" window, Click on Cogged wheel icon. On this screen you see "0 - Connection Established Cmd" click on the pen icon. This takes you the "Event EZ-Script Editor page, click on "Cheat Sheet". Find you script for your "Start Position" , click on that and it will put it on the left side of the page, click "Save". Now you should see that command in the box beside "0 - Connection Established Cmd" click Save. Now when ever you connect to your robot I should go to this position.
For more information you can also do a search for "init" or "initialization script" in EZ Script on the Community Forum page, there are a few more examples there.
Let me know if this works for you.
