    I’ve always had flaky connections but discovered it’s the cable. Usually when connection gets flaky I replace the cable and it works well going forward.

    I did have some connection issues maybe ~7-10 days ago (would fall under the article’s time frame). I’d have to unplug/replug my phone to get it to work. I didn’t think much since I’ve had the problem in the past that ended up being a bad cable. Haven’t had to do that in about 3-4 days now though so can’t really conclude anything.

    On a related note though, Android Auto and Mazda’s rotary dial don’t always work the best. Waze is hit or miss with the controls which is a damn shame. AA itself is a bit cumbersome to navigate. Just one of those I have to get used to I guess.

    Oddly enough in this wave of people having issues mine has actually been working better than ever. Pixel 7 Pro / Honda Civic / AA Wireless. It’s been a month since I had a connection drop.
