Connect 3rd Device using GameKit

I am using GameKit on a basic level right now. I am able to connect two devices and send messages between them.

I have 3 devices, we'll call them device A, B and C.

I am able to connect A to B, A to C, and B to C, as individual setups.

If I connect A to B, then attempt to connect B to C, Device C will show that Device B is available, but device B continues to spin and say "Looking for available iPod, iPhones..."

In peerPickerController:sessionForConnectionType: , when I am attempting to connect B to C, I am trying to have device B reuse its same GKSession that it is using in its connection to A... because if I create a new session on device B, it is able to connect to Device C but drops the connection to device A.

Here is the sessionForConnectionType :

 -(GKSession*)peerPickerController:(GKPeerPickerController *)picker sessionForConnectionType:(GKPeerPickerConnectionType)type {

   // session is a synthesized GKSession
        if (session == nil) {
            session = [[GKSession alloc] initWithSessionID:nil  displayName:@"" sessionMode:GKSessionModePeer];
            session.delegate = self;        
        } 


        return session;
    }

I ended up going with a Server / Client setup, which is easier to manage. This way, there is only one Server PeerID, as opposed to a Server PeerID for every connection. I wasn't able to find many good examples, so I've included the basic GameKit Server / Client code here.

// if the device in an ipad, treat it as a host / server
if ([[[UIDevice currentDevice] model] isEqualToString:@"iPad"]) {
        isHost = YES;
    } else {
        isHost = NO;
    }

// monitor if this device is connected to another device
    isConnected = NO;
}
