When you’re testing is your Nikon in manual mode? Power save features off? Wifi Off? Maybe try turning every do-dad off.

As an aside I got tired of these issues not being fixed because there is no real support for these freeware products. I just bought an AsiAir for $178. WIthin hours it was up an running - very easy, BUT my Canon T71 would not work, just like it still doesn’t work in Ekos. ZWO had that fixed withing 48 hours in a beta version and new firmware

So here’s the deal. I’m told AsiAir is built on Ekos. My Canon T7i wasn’t support in the last AsiAir build. Now it is. The old ZWO support list that originally showed my T7i was not support also shows your Nikon D5000 as NOT supported which makes me wonder that your and my DSLR problems with Ekos result from - the cameras are not actually supported.

As an aside my Canon with the new AsiAir build now works BUT it still does NOT work in Ekos. I got remote control from my iPad, guiding, imaging, Safari GOTO, and plate solution for $178 bucks tho I had a ZWO guide camera. It was all very easy to setup AND it has Support from the manufacturor.
