| Re: [paho-dev] Troubleshooting persistent connection issues with Paho and Android |
Hi Tucker,
I can't comment on the Java side of things, but have you seen the
problems with delayed and duplicated messages using a different
client? Do you see duplicate QoS 2 messages using mosquitto_sub for
example?
Cheers,
Roger
