iaxRpt disconnects after 45 seconds

rpt.conf

;lnkactenable = 0 ; Set to 1 to enable the link activity timer. Applicable to standard nodes only.

;lnkacttime = 1800 ; Link activity timer time in seconds.

;lnkacttimerwarn = 30seconds ; Message to play when the link activity timer has 30 seconds left.

Are you using hamvoip software ?
the recent update in Dec-Jan has some problems, I have the cures but just want to know if you are using hamvoip or AllStarLink

I guess I need to look over this forum closer, i just replied to a year old message

The last few messages are current. As I mentioned I am using ASL and at least one of the nodes I get disconnected from runs hamvoip.Thx.

The problem with node 49562 is that it’s setup as a “remote base” in the allstarlink portal. Here is the nodelist info:

49562=radio@74.132.115.111:4549/49562,74.132.115.111,y

The original remote base mode isn’t supported in HamVoIP, since no IAX2 link messages get sent when enabled as a “remote base.” HamVoIP requires link message (aka: heartbeats) at least every 45 seconds.

The simple solution is to just turn off the “remote base” mode by setting: “Is node a remote base station” to “No” in the allstarlink.org, “Node settings” section list.

Thank you David I will pass this info along and see if it helps resolve the issue!

I am having the same issue w/ 49562. I have forwarded the “remote base” setting comment to one of the local administrators associated with this node. Thanks for the good info!

The “remote base” setting on 49562 has been changed. Thank you AE5ME for doing so!

David your expert advice solved the problem! I tested 49562 after they toggled their remote base setting and I was not disconnected. I hope this thread will help others in the future.
Thanks again!
