Connection Unstable: Frequent Session Re-establishment on micro-ROS Agent over Public Network #267
Description
Description:
I am experiencing issues with the stability of my micro-ROS Agent when connecting over Public Network. Specifically, when connecting the ESP32 running micro-ROS to the Agent over a public network, the session frequently re-establishes, often within 1 second of each previous attempt. However, when the connection is made over a local area network (LAN), it remains stable without any issues. Here are the details:
Issue template
- Hardware description: esp32
- RTOS: freeRTOS
- Installation type: micro_ros_setup
- Version or commit hash: humble
- Connection Type: UDP over mobile hotspot (also tested over home WiFi)
Steps to reproduce the issue
docker run -it --rm -v /dev:/dev -v /dev/shm:/dev/shm --privileged --net=host microros/micro-ros-agent:humble udp6 --port 8090 -v6

Additional information
Behavior: The session between the ESP32 micro-ROS client and the micro-ROS Agent is frequently re-established (as seen from the micro-ROS Agent logs), sometimes multiple times per second.
Any help or guidance would be appreciated!
