# package import statement

@baahu_chanduwad Dont know if you have resolved this...just in case,
SmartConnect.py tries to connect to api.ipfy.org to get the the client PublicAPI...there is no url named api.ipfy.org...IT SHOULD BE api64.ipfy.org

Hi @baahu_chanduwad

Kindly pull the recent SDK version and re-install required packages. Please let us know if the issue still occurs.

@Moderator_2 I don't understand what you mean here, I have a stable connection. what am I supposed to re-install?

Hi @baahu_chanduwad

Apologies for the delayed response.
As verified from our end, the issue seems to be occurring when the internet is unstable to retrieve the local IP Address.
Kindly re-install and verify with stable network connection and let us know if the issue still occurs
