app_rpt svn - The Long version of my insanity - App_rpt-users

17 Oct 2012

      Hi All,

A while ago, I was messing around flashing different firmware images on a Linksys WRT54GL v1.1 access point so I could extend the range a bit. While on that adventure, I noticed a few guys were making hardware modifications to expand their capability. Well, that sounded fun, so I proceeded to add an SD Card socket, 2 Serial Ports and 2 USB ports to that little guy. (Kismet etc. fun... the white hat version of course :-))

After playing around with that for a while, I kept thinking that the WRT54GL might be a candidate for that mobile allstar micro node I’ve been wanting to build. I already had the URIx from DMK and I heard some guys were running Asterisk on these things. The WRT54GL runs on 12vdc, has wireless 802.11b/g and by using my Verizon UML290 on one of the USB ports, it could act as a portable hotspot/unix host. The SD card gives me plenty of room to install Asterisk so being this close already, I decided to give the allstar node a try.

I realize that the WRT54GL is at or slightly below the minimum hardware requirements, but it might be just enough to work as a simplex node so here is where I’m at…..

16 Megs of RAM
Openwrt Backfire 10.03.1, r29592
2 Gig SD Card ext3 mounted as rootfs
2 Serial ports – 1 for console and the other for GPS
2 USB v1.1 ports – Yeah I know….just maybe though
UML290 3g/4g model on 1 USB port - working
URIx on the other USB - recognized as sound card
Separate 1500 mw regulated 5vdc supply for the MAX 233 ttl to Serial and USB ports
Wouxun KG-UV3D - via a URI cable for testing - not tested yet

I have the Openwrt buildroot environment setup on another Linux box (Fedora 16 VM)so I can build images and cross compile packages that will run on the Broadcom Chipset. I have the tonezone module compiled and running already but I am still working to get the zaptel kernel module to compile cleanly and then I can work on app_rpt (The Openwrt Astreisk distro doesn't have it). I noticed that the svn code for ACID Linux (Thanks Alan for pointing me in that direction) is optimized for uClibc and so is Openwrt. I’ll see if I can add that as a custom feed and compile it under the buildroot. I’m pretty rusty at this, but it is starting to slowly come back.

I know this sounds insane, but I’m having a whole lot of fun with my insanity 

Any pointers will be greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks,
Rich – KJ6NMY

If anyone is using a Zxeyl  DSL modem   don't use the routing
functions.. Bridge it  and use a different router..   I had the same
problem and swapped several modems out from the DSL company and still same out come.  Once i bridged the modem and put a router in line it works  24/7  with no problem..

Had to reboot to get it to connect which I have to do frequently.
All of you ?I haven't rebooted my node for 2 years? folks care to weigh in as to why I have to reboot to get it to connect?

Hi All,
First, I'd like to apologize in advance for being a nooby here, but I 
guess we all start out that way :-)
My question is...where can I find the latest version of app_rpt from svn?
The link on the "Manual Configure Support Page" is not working and I'm 
not finding much via web searches.
I need to cross compile it to run on an embedded system project I am 
working on.
Thanks,
Rich - KJ6NMY

Hi,
Because my first RTCM works perfect with our local Fm Repeater i would 
like to connect a Motorola Tetra mobile with the second RTCM.
The problem is: there is no COR Signal and also there is no 
discriminator noise (only ready to go audio) to adjust the Squelch. Is 
there a solution to bring them together?
The SQL is not adjustable - JP1 ON or OFF gives no solution.
Thank you
Kurt

OK I now have it working for me.
The bindport in IAX.conf needed to be changed to 4570 and then server 
info on the Allstar portal also needed to be changed.
Thanks to Brian for the missing piece of info. The last time I had to 
do this was when there was no portal config.
Jon VA3RQ
...
have you changed the port you use AT the portal?  ie the server 
configuration, network configuration tab?
if you have a node that needs to be on a different port, the 
underlying server needs to be moved both at the end, as well as at 
the mother ship.
had the same problem until i had everything lined up.

It all works fine, others can connect, and webtransceiver works fine.
