Is there anything that would cause me to not be able to use NetMgr? ive started to slowly rebuild the function that is called when the alarm is triggered. it was going fine until i tried to open netlib, thats when it would do a soft rest. Im not doing anything different from how i do it in my main app. Is there something extra i have to do to have access to such managers like NetLib?
