Hello Bill,

Yes, Asterisk registers every 50 seconds. You can see that the Refresh rate "60" is shown in iax2 show registered.

Here is what my node shows.

After reading all the post. I don't think this is a OS problem (N4IRS can chime in) but more of network or USB problem. I'm using good old Limey Linux and a 4 port pci card.

Allstar uses UDP. Drop a UDP packet and that will drop out on the repeater.

SSH and SNMP uses TCP. Drop out a TCP packet. It will send a replacement packet. No loss of data but slower.

Are you using both WiFi and Ethernet at the same time? I would try using just one mode to access the internet. How are you connecting to the Internet? i.e. WiFi to a cell hotspot or WiFi to a Mesh Network? What kind of local network?

"Modular connectors and Cat-7 cable for the interface with snap-on chokes at both ends

Pi is connected to the local network via Wifi (We are prepared to move this to Ethernet, but need approval of the host to do so)"

If this is a network problem. I would use the mrt command to test your network to the ASL server. Google Linux MRT and Linux MRT save to a file.

Let us know.

Steve,

I have felt that it was ok. I seem to be able to get to it remotely via SSH at will and I have not noticed any loss of SNMP data.

One more interesting note. I took a look at my simplex multinode (43758 and 43936) here at my QTH and it's doing exactly the same thing. That system is a mini ITX PC based DIAL system. The only things these two systems have in common are: 1.) I was the builder, 2.) they're both using RIM LITE style interfaces, and 3.) they are both behind NAT routers (with the appropriate ports forwarded of course).
