After a week or so of testing I now realize that the issue is just with the android RUI app. If I stick with a laptop and Chrome there are no issues, but if I use the android app on my tablet, once the tablet goes to sleep, I can no longer access Rune with either tablet or Chrome unless I power the Pi3 off and on. I get the little green man in the top right and no connection. This is already the subject of another thread....
android-remote-control-app-stopped-working-t3578-10.html.... so I will now post to that one instead.
