Trying to find out which variable to change...have two nodes on a server, one repeater full-duplex, the other a remote base half-duplex (RF link). When I connect them together after a short period of being active I hear "remote timeout" and the system drops. I am then able to kerchunk and everything starts working again. If the remote is connected and idle, there is no timeout. A guess is probably 20-30 minutes before it happens. Here is what I have defined: [repeater] ;lnkactenable=0 ; Set to 1 to enable the link activity timer. Applicable to standard nodes only. ;lnkacttime=1800 ; Link activity timer time in seconds. ;lnkactmacro=*52 ; Function to execute when link activity timer expires. ;lnkacttimerwarn=30seconds ; Message to play when the link activity timer has 30 seconds left. ;remote_inact_timeout=1800 ; Inactivity timer for remote base nodes only (set to 0 to disable). ;remote_timeout=3600 ; Session time out for remote base. (set to 0 to disable) [remote] remote_inact_timeout=0 ; Inactivity timer for remote base nodes only (set to 0 to disable). remote_timeout=0 ; Session time out for remote base. (set to 0 to disable) --other settings like above removed-- Am I reading the docs wrong where the remote has its timeouts set to zero, should I include all options above and set to zero also? For these activity timers, is the local or remote end that applies? Sorry I don't have more info or can readily try changes, my DSL isn't installed at the site yet, so its standalone for a while. I'll be stopping by to make a few changes and want to get this right. Thanks, Tony
