Hello Thador,
I understand that SPC is not able to communicate effectively to your device because of the Apple IP address. This can be due to the "Private IP address" being enabled.
Please turn off your private IP address on your iOS device.
To turn off the Private IP address please follow the directions listed below:
Open "Settings"
"Wi-Fi"
Select the "i" icon next to your connected network
Toggle off "Private Wi-Fi Address"
Best,
Kevin
