Update: The problem is still there after update to Recalbox 4.1

Mmm I don't think wifi is the cause of the problem, because the disconnection happens only when opening n64 games.
Maybe I'm not using the right words. What I see is that when starting any n64 game, the led that indicates the player number in the control turns off, in the same way as when I turn off recalbox.

Update: Tried my controllers on a clean Retropie 4.2 install (I'm not trying to promote anything) and they work perfectly there using "Gasia only" driver, which is strange because in Recalbox the gasia drivers didn't work for me...
Is there much difference between the gasia drivers of both systems?

Hi everyone, I'm using 2 clone DS3 controls with PS3 driver set to official in recalbox.conf. I don't have problems with them while using emulation through retroarch, but whenever I try to play a n64 game they randomly disconnect (lights turn off) at emulation start OR stop, and need to be re-paired.

When they disconnect at emulation stop (so I'm back in ES) I have to re-pair them pressing PS equivalent button and that make both work again, which is very annoying but is something I can live with. The real problem is when they disconnect at emulation start because, despite both being able to re-pair, emulator doesn't recognize them anymore, so I can't stop emulation and go back to ES.

Recalbox setup:

• Raspberry Pi 3 no overclock
• Recalbox Stable 4.0.2 (can't try unstable now due to infrastructure migration).
• 2 DS3 clone controllers.
• PS3 "official" driver.
• USB bluetooth dongle CSR 4.0 (link)

Apparently, my controllers are not GASIA/SHANWAN, so I tried all PS3 drivers.

PS3 driver test:

• "official": Almost perfect operation except as mentioned above.
• "shanwan": Controllers are recognized and manage to pair, but is impossible to configure them as no button gets recognized, so in practice they are useless.
• "gasia": They just don't work.

Finally, I attach a support file that somebody might find useful.

Sorry for my terrible english! Any help is much appreciated.

Tengo el mismo problema, eso si mis controles no son originales... pudiste solucionarlo?
Saludos.
