WebSocket suppressing (a lot of) the status update messages #482

Hi there, first of all thanks for this great software.

I am trying to create scripts for my thesis, which base on your WebSockets to keep sniffing the datasource wifi for communication of some of my probes.

Unfortunately I have issues with your WebSockets. While I am able to watch the desired device with your Web UI, I often don't get messages of those devices over the WebSocket, I use.

The strange thing for me: Some devices are often updated. Sometimes even in the requested rate. Some devices are rarely pushing message and some devices are not sending messages of devices at all.

All devices are pinging continuously the router, so it's guaranteed that they generate traffic on the WIFI Channel, I observe. That also what I see in your WebUI. But the WebSocket doesn't.

While I was investing days in my scripts to be approved. I see now, that even uwsc isn't more verbose than my approach.

Attached please find a screenshot of the WebUI and the uwsc output, I just watched for minutes.

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards
