Subject: New repeater linking issue


I've been running three repeaters here for years using the arm-allstar
code and all have been working fine until a recent network upgrade
necessitated by a failed router. This router is not maintained by me.

Here is the situation:

Two of the repeaters can share the same local address space and I have
linking information called out in the bottom of the rpt.conf files - those
two repeaters are linking just fine. They have static IP addresses that
can be pinged from here outside the network. Putty works fine to them.

The third is outside the local network and attempting to connect to one of
the external nodes is not working.

All three repeaters are showing up in green on the Allstar node list.

Nothing shows linked on the bubble charts.

I figured it was a port issue but, to my surprise, Zoiper connections 
work. Echolink works.

Again, all was working before the network change. Any coaching on what to 
do? BTW nodes 43115 and 43117 are the ones behind this network.
