How to sneak? Aka the Chameleon suit sucks.

So I built a runner designed to sneak in and out, special ops type. With Con specialized in disguise, he can walk into a corp wearing a suit and look in place. But I also bought him a Chameleon suit for invisible sneaking. The problem is it doesn't seem to work.

The Suit gives an edge to all sneak rolls. Wireless gives 2 DV extra.

Apparently the suit doesn't make you invisible to the naked eye. And it seem to do anything to thermovision or ultrasound. So a drone with either of those sensors will just automatically spot you in the suit no stealth roll so the suit does nothing cause no roll no edge. And even fully covered up with a full body suit a drone with thermographics can relay enough data to Knight Errant or whoever automatically raise your heat.

The people at my table said get rheumatium coating on actual armor to be invisible, which is a pain and isn't stealthy. Actual social clothes tend not to have enough capacity to spend six to put the coating in.

And even with it's invisibility which requires moving very slowly. Not always the best thing, especially if you are hopped up on Jazz or something.

And again thermo auto spot it seems no stealth roll to avoid it. So every troll standing guard is a major issue. To say nothing about the issues of trying to sneak past ultrasound.

So how do you be a ninja? How do you stop getting spotted by every drone and troll? And is there anything that can be done with a chameleon suit, which is supposed to be the dedicated stealth gear, other than throw it in the trash?

Thanks in advance.
