I'll try, but generally the devices having the most trouble have the
most unreliable connections, so logging in is often very difficult.

The other thing I'm seeing is that shovel appears to be getting
stuck (but the shovel status shows it's running) on a number
of these devices.  What sort of diagnostics would be useful
here?
