Re: [44net] Using NPR Modem on AMPRNET

hi, yes, i use a pair here for an occasional link from 44.155.16.58 (the shack, folded dipole) to 44.155.16.60 (the car, roof mounted 1/4wave). barefoot, without external amp it works for a couple of miles well enough to send email, use a text based browser, ssh, etc. unless carelessly exposing the config page: i don't see an attack surface, so i have no qualms hooking it up to 44. the mandatory use of the internal dhcp seems a bit quirky at first, but works reliably. the latest firmware is a must, or the ethernet will insist on 10mhz-fd only and will not talk to an auto negotiated 100mhz interface. latency isn't the hottest, but still way better than ax25 semiduplex. i haven't observed packetloss -provided there is a good rf signal both ways. happy to help further, 73 de stefan, ei4ku On Wed, 17 Feb 2021, R P via 44Net wrote:
