Advanced Deck, Foreflight and Wifi

I purchased the Dynon wifi adapter as part of my avionics package, but had not getting around to plugging it in (that is pretty much all that is required from a physical standpoint).  So needing a motivation, I plugged it in.  The setup is easy... give it an SSID and password, and thats it.

I joined the network from my phone and opened Foreflight.


Well thats cool.

So I did up a basic flightplan on my ipad, connected it to the aircraft wifi, and the option shows up under 'Send to', 'Panel'.



The panel then wants you to confirm that you actually want to load it.


Piece of cake.

When airliners fly over, I get their ADSB feed in the shop.  Now I get it on both my ipad, and Advanced displays.


The only thing that is not working is my aircraft GPS.  There is a foil lining under our tile roof, so there is no GPS connectivity in the shop, so the altitude on foreflight is showing -32000 ft.
