MyPlace/MyAir support for IoT VLAN

Image
I've upgraded my home network to use separate VLANs for security, specifically keeping IoT devices and guests off my main network. One device that did not "just work" is the air conditioning controller tablet from Advantage Air .  While the controller device was functional, I could not get the mobile app MyPlace to connect from the source (secure) VLAN to the IoT VLAN. To figure this out I had to do some Wireshark analysis.  Not only did I figure out how to get MyPlace to work across VLANs, but I also discovered how to improve the app connection reliability.
