[App_rpt-users] What is wrong with my node?

[Jim W7RY]

I have a static IP. 

Only one device on the LAN. The WAN connector on the router goes to the IP’s switch, the LAN connector goes to the node.

Is the ISP service STATIC or DYNAMIC IP assignment? 

In cases other than AllStar, I have seen situations where the IP address changes (due to dynamic/dhcp re-assignment) and the site LAN device(s) continue to ARP CACHE the old IP-to-MAC address pair.

While AllStar uses periodic IAX registrations to keep the ALlStar 'network' aligned, these re-registrations would have zero affect on local ARP CACHE entries (and their timeout), if ARP CACHE is your issue.

You need the commands to display the ARP table on EACH and ALL of the devices on your LAN  path between the node and the internet, as well as on the Linux node host itself.

Linux command,
# arp -v

As a shot in the dark, you may want to confirm that your wireless router's firmware is the most up to date there is.

Cycling the interface can clear the ARP Entries.  you can DOWN the interface, pause, and UP the interface.  Don't DOWN a REMOTE interface you're doing the remote connection through. You need a small script to down, sleep, and up that'll run in the background (&) so when you get disconnected, you can re-connect when the script UPs the interface.

Again, I don't know if this is your issue, but I have seen ARP tables MIS-matches cause these types of issues.

Good luck.

  The node is at a wireless internet provider hub.  I have 1.5 Mb of speed at all times. This has started to happen after I installed the keep connected commands. The node has always had this issue though.

  This is usually an ISP issue.  Happens to me all the time with my crummy cable ISP.  Usually have to restart the cable modem and router to get it playing nice again.  DMZ or not, your router or the remote router could be blocking traffic.  I’ve seen it a 100 times here though your issue could be different, my two cents.

  Why is this happening? See below.....   The internet is working just fine from the site. I logged into the node and the router remotely at the moment. The node repeater is in the DMZ. I can ping google.com so the DNS is working. 



  This node not being able to re-connect or connect is really not cool!



  What is going on here?





  Thanks!
