Just tried to play against a bot on [chess.com](http://chess.com) using only the board. It connected fine but after a few moves the bot stopped moving and I could do nothing else but to resign as there is no other option on the screen. Same thing happened again after turning the board on an off and starting a new game. Any ideas what is causing this?

Thanks for sharing the game - we can review the logs and troubleshoot.

Guess it’s similar to this thread: [Chess.com ( Isabel bot ) freezes in endgame position](https://community.playchessup.com/t/chess-com-isabel-bot-freezes-in-endgame-position/3250)

Just had the same thing happen to me - playing a [chess.com](http://chess.com) bot, into the endgame, I made a move and the bot didn’t make a further move so we’re in a stalemate (not a chess stalemate) - resignation is the only option apart from switching off.
I play probably 4-5 games vs bot each day, this is the first time it’s happened to me in probably 6w

Today I played the built in bot, (Stockfish 1500) and it also stopped moving (happend in two games )…is this the same issue as with the [chess.com](http://chess.com) bots? A bit anoying that this is not fixed yet.

Is the WiFi connection weak in that location by chance?
