I know you can connect to an AllStar node without opening the firewall. Echolink and IRLP I have on idea.<br>
<br>
I travel a lot and found that most of the time hotel WiFi is bad. I have
 used a SprintPCS USB Internet card. Works great. I&#39;m think of using a 
Virgin Mobile (Pay as you go) USB Internet card. VM is Sprint. So the 
idea is that you can turn it on when you want. $40 a month for unlimited
 Internet.<br>

Hi All,<br>
<br>
This may be an obvious and I am just not &quot;getting it&quot; but here it goes.<br>
<br>
We are setting up an 440 &amp; 902Mhz Emergency communications system with a<br>
repeater node in a suite case sized Pelican box.  In the box is<br>
902/927Mhz Repeater, 12volt Linux PC, WiFi Card + FOB.<br>
<br>
The idea is that we could set this up (as an example) at a hotel near a<br>
wildfire command post.  The local operator would make an always on<br>
outbound connection to a node used as an &quot;inbound hub&quot; via the hotel<br>
&quot;guest wifi&quot; or Ethernet.<br>
<br>
My question is can a node create an outbound connection without any<br>
major firewall modifications?  If not my other option will be to have<br>
linux create a SSL VPN connection to somewhere &quot;outside&quot; and VoIP UDP<br>
openly from there.<br>
<br>
Any thoughts on this?  Other ideas?<br>
<br>
Pete/WI6H<br>
