Hello luuiz,
Thank you for the image and the logs. The gaps you are seeing are not due to internet issues (your Shake is transmitting well on our network) but local issues. These lines (and similar ones) in the logs confirm it:

These may be caused by different reasons, so, I encourage you to check:
- that all the connections between the geophone and the blue Shake board, and between the blue Shake board and the Pi board underneath it, are solid and in good status.
- that your power supply is constantly providing between 5.0V and 5.2V with a 2.5A current.
- if your Shake is outdoors, that the box in which the Shake is appears still waterproof with good insulation from external elements.
If all those checks come out as good, then you may want to observe if the gaps are random, or happen always around a set time of the day, and how frequent they are.
You could also want, as the last resource, to re-burn your microSD card to cancel the chances that they may be caused by corrupted files. If you choose to do so, instructions are posted below:
- Please take the microSD card you have and format it before burning the new Shake OS image
- Make sure, when you format it, that the shown capacity is the maximum (i.e. if the SD card is 32GB like yours, then the capacity should be near or equal to that value). This is to check that no partitions have been involuntarily and erroneously created. They could be the cause of the error we see now
- Take care to format the SD card in a FAT32 File System (or exFAT if the SD card is 64GB or larger)
- Download the new Shake OS image from here: https://gitlab.com/raspberryShake-public/raspShake-SD-img/raw/master/raspishake-release.zip
- And follow the microSD burning instructions from here: raspishake-microSD-card-software-Instructions.txt · master · raspberryShake-public / raspShake-SD-img · GitLab
I followed the numbered list points to burn the files on my SD cards, and I have not used Etcher or similar software.
