I am new to Arduino and the code used, so I don't know much about the backend, but if you look at his line of code:
If the server was constantly disconnecting after each loop, you would see multiple lines from Serial saying "Server is at "
Are you seeing multiple lines output or just 1 time?
as far as I can tell it might not disconnect after every "scan" (though perhaps what you mean by "scan" could be clarified).
But the block "if (c == '\n' && currentLineIsBlank) {" has a "break;" in it that will exit the while() loop and send one to the "client.stop();" a bit further down.
on the other hand, if "(c == '\n' && currentLineIsBlank)" is false, you will stay in the while loop and stay connected, but nothing very interesting happens, if something does happen then the while loop is exited and program will disconnect.
I really don't understand what the program in intended to do, but I suspect that for;
"how can I change the coding to just have it connect and stay on until the device is powered off?"
just removing that "break;" might do it?
