Karl, I happen to be NG7M... I guess I'm suppose to be clairvoyant and
figure out your problem for you. After all of the major useless crap
that you have posted on this list, I'm amazed that I'm even going to try
and be helpful... but here it goes anyway...
>From what I can gather, you are getting a node broadcast from the vhf
port at W5GB-8, I have an axip link with W5GB (128.123.7.33 this link is
working fine at the moment) and I'm broadcasting my nodes to this link.
So W5GB is going to have a list of nodes that route through NG7M-8 (my
first attached netrom port). W5GB is going to broadcast to the ports
that have been configured for netrom node broadcasts (at W5GB)... I
suspect that his vhf port is setup to broadcast the nodes... hence, you
are going to get nodes that route to NG7M-8. The route to NG7M-8 goes
through W5GB (NG7M-8 is a neighbor of W5GB). Try the (r)oute and
(n)odes * commands when you are logged in on your Linux Node and or the
W5GB Linux Node, it's amazing what you might learn.
What you need to do is... follow the path of nodes and see where things
stop working (if you feel that there is some catastrophic problem with
my netrom routing at NG7M-8). Also, you might try monitoring the
frequency of your radio port and see what happens when you try to
connect to one of the nodes that routes to NG7M-8.... maybe you should
get a hold of the sysop at W5GB and have him monitor the axip link,
there are several different things you could try that would shed some
light on the problem.
If you feel there is still a problem with the axip link between NG7M-8
and W5GB, get a hold of the sysop at W5GB and have him work out the
problem with ME. I haven't had complaints from the other sysops that I
have axip links with. (14 other axip links BTW...)
One last thing... please don't post your replies regarding this to the
whole list... reply direct to me. I know this is almost impossible for
you to do, but there is no need to continue irritating the rest of the
list with this.
mg NG7M
