I thought I'd post an update:
Changing my the 5GHz network to my 2.4GHz network seems to have fixed the issue of my Element X dropping offline...thanks for the suggestion.
The issue of the NAS folders disappearing from the iPad app when exiting/re-launching the app is still there. I have to remove and re-add my device to the app to get the folder locations to appear again. This problem doesn't occur with the iPhone app.
