I never had a lot of success using Stellarium, admittedly this was with cords and into a laptop. I moved to Synscan on my Samsung phone with a wifi dongle and connect it to SkySafari on my Samsung tablet, and the issues have greatly reduced. There may be a setting in the phone which attempts to connect with other nearby wifi signals, causing you to drop out. Sometimes it still disconnects for no apparent reason, although I recently discovered that microwave ovens can disrupt a wifi signal - maybe if someone is using the microwave nearby it's stuffing you up? Bit of a long-shot, sorry. I would also add that I never got Synscan Pro and SkySafari to work properly on the same device.
