[arm-allstar] Node to node connexion problem

[Chris Souleles]

I don't know if it is the same phenomenon but I have 2 RPI3 nodes that I keep always connected over the internet both running the latest release of HAMVOIP and occasionally one side can hear and the other can't and I disconnect and reconnect and all is well again.  I have never figured out why this happens, but I live with it.  Chris - W6CS - 73.

Hi Roger,

The issue you're encountering has been called the ANNOYING "one way audio" 
bug. 

This is a known problem that has been in the code for a long time and
seems to impact all AllStar releases at least since version 0.325, which
is several year old.  I'm actively looking for the cause of and fix for
this issue.

Some users see this issue fairly frequently, others never or almost never.  
On my network, I fall into the almost never category--which doesn't help
me find a solution very quickly.

On a positive note, I think I've identified most of the chain of events 
that have to occur to trigger this problem.

I'll have a fix for this as soon as possible.

73, David KB4FXC

Recently we observed a strange behavior:We have many locations where 
a repeater (allstar node) is connected to a transceiver (local node).The 
repeater is normally connected to the network via the RF link (We use the 
Internet only as a backup)Once in a while, users complain they do not ear 
anything from the network.I use IaxRpt and observe that there is no 
communications between the two nodes.However, the cli rpt nodes command 
show that the nodes are connected.If I disconnect and reconnect the 
nodes, everything is ok.I tested both ilink 3 and ilink 13, same 
problem. Has anybody noticed that behavior?
