Which modem is he using? VM used to supply a cable modem and a DIR615 (which could be flashed with DD-WRT) but now they supply a combined Netgear modem/router. AAUI, this can be configured as a modem for use with the customer's own router. Nick.

Most of these el-cheapo routers will quite happily forward UDP and TCP but don't have any rules to forward a protocol. Sometimes the DMZ works, other times it doesn't. I've seen many people report this on the IPv6 tunnel broker forums where they are trying to forward Protocol 41 and the host is behind a NAT. I'd suggest he gets something that supports DD-WRT. I've just seen John Wiseman's post from earlier today that he has this working on VM - it just needs a couple of firewall rules adding to DD-WRT which has to be done over a telnet connection. Unfortunately they won't persist between reboots so it may need a script to automate it. Something like: iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth1 -p 4 -j DNAT --to 192.168.1.2 iptables -t filter -A FORWARD -i eth1 -p 4 -d 10.0.1.2 -j ACCEPT the check your firewall rules with iptables -t nat -L; iptables -t filter -L Assuming eth1 is your public ip interface and 192.168.1.2 is the ip address of your host running rip44d, this would forward any incoming protocol 4 packets to 10.0.1.2.

Nick, You can make these changes persist across reboots in DD-WRT by using the Adminstration/Commands/Save Firewall feature. I have iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p 4 -d 82.18.43.225 -j DNAT --to 192.168.1.31 iptables -t filter -I FORWARD -p 4 -d 192.168.1.31 -j ACCEPT I had problems with -i eth1, maybe because I was using the wrong interface. (Should it be the bridge?) Specifying an address means I'll have to change it when my external address changes, but on Virgin Media this very rarely happens. I have separate cable modem and router, but I've been on Diamond/NTL/Virgin for a very long time - maybe their current offering isn't so flexible. 73, John G8BPQ -----Original Message----- From: 44net-bounces+john.wiseman=cantab.net(a)hamradio.ucsd.edu [mailto:44net-bounces+john.wiseman=cantab.net@hamradio.ucsd.edu] On Behalf Of Nick G4IRX Sent: 09 January 2014 09:14 To: 44net(a)hamradio.ucsd.edu Subject: Re: [44net] known good routers that pass rip/44-net friendly in uk?

I've just completed the pi-tnc and fired it up with my pi using jnos. It worked first time, but txd is way too short as I'm going through a mountain top digital repeater. Everything is configured for a kissmode tnc for use with jnos. I'm miffed about how to get out of the software preset so I can use R6 to set txd. After reading the instruction book for the tnc-pi, I'm still confused as to what to use. Thanks, jerome - ve7ass

you use the pitnc_setparams utility..... http://www.tnc-x.com/params.zip on my older 256m without the mounting holes the syntax for txdelay is: pitnc_setparams 0 0 1 40 newer board uses different address: pitnc_setparams 0 1 1 40 to use the potentiometer, set txdelay to 0... I've found that I've had to power down and re-power the pi to accept any changes to txd...that's not in the manual, hi hi! On 14-01-09 06:30 PM, Bill Vodall wrote:

OK John... got it all working correctly now. Thanks for your help! j On 14-01-09 02:50 PM, ve1jot wrote:

There may one day be a 300 baud version of the TNC-PI. I've even bought the chips to experiment with, but as usual time is the enemy! I'm also working on ideas for a 9600 baud version. 73, John G8BPQ -----Original Message----- From: 44net-bounces+john.wiseman=cantab.net(a)hamradio.ucsd.edu [mailto:44net-bounces+john.wiseman=cantab.net@hamradio.ucsd.edu] On Behalf Of ve1jot Sent: 10 January 2014 06:53 To: 44net(a)hamradio.ucsd.edu Subject: Re: [44net] set txd on Pi-tnc running jnos?

Hi Bill... Nope... the jnos param statement seems to be ignored; I tried changing it in autoexec.nos. The repeater is on 145.07/67 rx/tx it's at almost 3000 feet facing south on Mt.Seymoure in North Vancouver. I'm sure it can be heard for a few hundred miles towards the south. It's been up for ages.
