Greetings Allstar, problem connecting to nodes. my info: node: 54631 call: KN6GSG equipment: SHARI PI4U into Pi4 to wifi/ AT&T ARRIS modem/router NVG510; on Windows 8.1 PC using iaxRpt and Anytone 878 hand held radio. And I set COS to light up. Only way I am able to connect to nodes is to CALL my node 54631 on iaxRpt and then use iaxRpt keypad to input \*3node-number I want to connect to. When I look at my connections on AllStarLink Keyed Nodes/Connected Nodes: it shows that I connected to my call sigh ? “54631 Bubble KN6GSG 446.500 192.8 Moss Beach, CA 40 secs ago 2001 27225 KN6GSG 27339” I can transmit and receive thru the PC but only receive on the HT; both TX & RX have same CTCSS code. Allstar reports the time on the hour; and reports my IP address and call sign. I can get the time with \*81 using the iaxRpt keypad. When I try to connect by selecting and calling a stored node in iaxRpt - it reports: Call Attempt Failed (see below) “Connected to Asterisk 1.4.23-pre.hamvoip-V1.6.2-10 app\_rpt-0.327-06/01/2020 currently running on alarmpi (pid = 329) Verbosity is at least 3 – Event on node 54631 doing rpt command cop,62,GPIO4:0 for condition c|f|RPT\_RXKEYED – Hungup ‘DAHDI/pseudo-1538232153’ [May 5 00:42:36] NOTICE[339]: chan\_iax2.c:9614 socket\_process: Rejected connect attempt from 192.168.1.181, request ‘2560@radio-iaxrpt’ does not exist”… 192.168.1.181 is my PC.

Why is 2560 (WIN System) involved in connecting to your own node? Do you have the caller ID or something strange set for that IAXrpt connection. ---

Because I was trying to connect to insomniac and I could not directly connect. That is why I ask for help on what I might have wrong in setups. Thanks, KN6GSG ---

Could you share some additional… Your iaxrpt set-up in iax.conf (erase user/passwords) And do you also have a private node connected to your main node while you are attempting these connections ? ---

You can’t use IAXrpt to connect directly to anything except systems that have given you a login. That’s typically only your own node. You must connect to you own node first and then connect to 2560 with the TT pad. BTW, I think WIN System has restrictions on connections from Desktops. But double check me on that. ---

Thank you Mike for looking at this. Full iax.conf below. RE: private node connected to main node … I am not sure what I have? I thought I initially setup a private node but not sure of “private node” vs “main node”??

1st, as @Tim_Sawyer says, you need to be sure you are using it as intended. You connect to ‘your’ local machine and command ‘your’ node to do actions. So, this: 105: [iaxrpt] 106: user=iaxrpt 107: type=user 108: context=radio-iaxrpt 109: auth=md5 110: ; add a password of your selection for secret 111: secret=xxxxxxxxx; PASSWORD 112: host=dynamic 113: disallow=all 114: allow=ulaw 115: allow=gsm 116: transfer=no all seems correct. So, once you connect to your node, you should command it to connect to other node. like \*329999 would connect in TX to node 29999 Why not try my example, it is my node and will not bother anything and see what it says. ---

No msg. You must have some of the options set in your program that I am not really all that familiar with. Can’t say which one may have caused that. I seen your connect and your system did hang and time me out after a while. I gave you the boot shorty after. So… did it display as needed and did you understand what you seen ? ---

Not sure what I am supposed to see and do not understand what is on my iaxrpt screen. Sorry for timing you out - how does one prevent that?

No your fine but I am going to bed very soon. Early day fri. I’m going to guess from not knowing any better, that you have a simplex radio attached to the node. And the COS (rx) is going active and you are not hearing it. Or you just are getting a false active on your radio port rx. That is what causes the time-out. So, until you find and fix that, I would not connect to public nodes. You can use 48234 for testing for now. It is listening only to DMR 3100 nationwide. So you cant hurt anything. Trying to set something else up for ya… I let ya know if I fix it before bed. Keep a eye on your rx cos ---

Hi Mike, So I fooled around with the usb settings and can now connect to nodes and issue commands with the HT while the PC iaxRpt is off and not connected. Will have to test it real-time tonight on the WINsystem tech net at 6:30PST. Thank you again for your help!! Barry ---

Sure, hope it helps. BTW I was able to ask a question on the WinSystem Friday Tech net about Global Text message - answer was to disregard - they are automated notes.

Mike, I am not quite sure what you referring to? My previous message was referring to the emailed settings list of “REALTIME RX TELEMETRY DISPLAY”- that did not line up in as seen on the HDMI monitor. My node using IAXRPT connects just fine using the PC. My Anytone HT radio connects and works just fine now, too - without the PC on. Using just the HT- I can connect and disconnect using the DTMF keys with the \* codes. ---
