<DIV>it happened again. I checked it about 16 hours of on time and all was well.
now the status shows that the node is not online.</DIV>
<DIV>The beagle bone blue led is flashing but the URI light green is solid
on. I have no linux login when I try to connect using putty. so by my estimate
it occurred in the last 3.5 hours. the on time should be about 19.5 hours if it
was working. The node has no output right now.</DIV>
<DIV>I just rebooted the node about 2pm Eastern time and all is well and it is

<DIV>My daughter did tell me that the internet did get real slow for a few

<DIV>Could this be the cause? and if so what can I do to tell the BBB to retry
the internet connection until it reconnects, and why would this lock up the rf
side of the simplex node? id;s for example should still work.</DIV>

nothing that should go to sleep on the BBB or RPi2 assuming you are using a
wired connection. I do have some questions about what you mean by going to
sleep.<BR><BR>Do you lose connection to the linux prompt or just the local

<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>I have noted a "sleeping node" or node lockup issue
after extended hours of no activity. I try to key up the node when this occurs
and get nothing. the status of the node shows connected and not keyed up. the
timing of these sleeping periods seem random. some people have suggested
starting a cron job to reboot on a regular schedule. rebooting the node does
bring it back 100%</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Calibri>Are there any thoughts or best practices to
share?</FONT></DIV>
