Blynk NodeJS app disconnect loop

Hi All,

I’ve been using Blynk with my Particle hardware for a year or so now and have had no issues with it. I’m now trying to run Blynk on a Pi (Pi Zero W) via NodeJS.

I’ve followed the installation guide @ http://help.blynk.cc/how-to-connect-different-hardware-with-blynk/raspberry-pi/how-to-install-nodejs-library-on-linux and everything seemed to be going fine until I try and start either the sample client app (blynk-client) with my auth token, or a fresh node app containing just the sample code provided on the page and my auth token.

When I try to start either the sample or my own app, it get the following output to the console

OnOff mode

Connecting to: blynk-cloud.com 8441

Disconnect blynk
Connecting to: blynk-cloud.com 8441

The message to repeats until I stop the running application, and the Blynk app on my phone reports the device as offline.

Any advice?

Thanks,
John
