[App_rpt-users] Connection Timer?

[Corey Dean]

The node, static or dhcp, still needs to register with the server.  After it registers it gets added to the list that all the nodes download.  If your node isn't in the list then you can't connect to anything so it is a two step process.

How do I find out if it's re-registered?

Hard to tell. The ISP pipe is at the repeater site. Repeater site is 2 hour
drive one way.
