I have done a lot of troubleshooting, finally I think that TS app goes to sleep in the background. Once started it works well for few minutes then stops, when you open the app it shows connected. I checked with my brother, he is also facing the same issue on MI android tv box. I tried ADB TV app to keep TS awake, but did not work. Requesting app developers to consider this issue and try to fix it.

I download beta app today, but none of the streaming apps are working. Checked internet speed, upload is 0.50 Mbps, download is about 250 Mbps.

Attached bug report
