Bryan, Not being the one who gives the best instructions but since no one else has jumped in … Many do what you mentioned when using a mobile node while traveling. Remembering (you can normally connect outbound without port forward) from a wifi location. Place an Allstar server at home. Install 2 nodes on it, with one node being set up as a HUB. Do the port forward on it Make its audio driver (RXchannel use the pseudo driver) It becomes an Allstar Repeater or conference connection point.What ever you want to call it. When portable connect (dial) your portable node outbound to that Hub \*73XXXXX If you make the second node on the same home server. (Saves Hardware) Set that Node to use the USB driver and interface it to your Repeater/Radio or whatever you intend to talk to and from locally. Connect the second node ( \*73XXXXX) to the HUB. You can then have a full time link from your current portable location to your home HUB. You will hear any of the second nodes traffic it receives. Plus any other station’s traffic that connects to your Hub. Should you want to connect to another node somewhere else in the world you can always dial it from your mobile/portable node. You can either hang up the connection to the HUB to prevent the home node from having to listen to your other connection or join them all together if you leave the HUB connected. Saves all the Monkey motion with DynDNS by using your own HUB as the central connection point. Being able to have multiple connections is one of the things that makes Allstar so great. Is that something like what you were looking for?
