It depends on your needs. UDP is usually faster and has a lower latency, but you have no guarantee a packet you send will even be received. If you need something safer and need all your data to be transmitted, and retransmitted if necessary, then you should use TCP.

To know what the problem is, you need to analyse the traffic with a sniffer such as Wireshark and see what's wrong.
