CC3000 stability issues?

Hi all,

I am currently exploring the "best" prototyping platform for a little project, I've used the Spark Core already for example and know that the CC3000 seems to have real issues in "chatty" WiFi environments. Nevertheless, I am wondering if there is somethign I could do from an Espruino point of view.

The error I am getting is this:

ERROR: Timeout in CC3000 driver (4103)
ERROR: Connect failed
at line 22 col 13
    req.end();
             ^
in function called from system
Looks like CC3000 has died again. Power cycling...

My code is doing a HTTP post request, then once data has been received, it will schedule the same request again after 5 seconds. Ideally I would like to get a constant server-client connection, WebSockets or so, but I think if simple HTTP requests are a stability issue, I won't go in this area.

Is there a way to

• make it more stable?
  
• or could I at least reset the CC3000 somehow, catch the exception it did throw and start again?
  
  

Thx!
Sven
