I've had difficulty downloading database updates since starting to use Cameralert (iPhone 4) a couple of months ago.

I fire up Cameralert. It tells me (quite rightly) that I'm not using the latest version of the DB. So I go to Manage Cameras and can see the Server and Device database versions.

Clearly, there is a connection to PGPSW. But, 9 times out of 10, when I go for 'Download Database', there's a long pause and then I get 'No connection to the server. Please try again later.'.

Why does that happen? I should add that I generally use wi-fi rather than 3G/GPRS.

have you tried it with wifi off? the database is about 250kb so not going to cut into mobile data allowance too much. if it works over mobile data then it could be an issue with the ISP blocking something?
