In the nrports file, I recommend to name it say "netrom" or "netrom0". Anything will do really. > /etc/ax25/nrbroadcast contains: > ax0 5 192 100 1 This is your problem.. this needs to point to the AX25 interface name and NOT the device name. This will be something like "vhfdrop" or whatever as defined in your /etc/ax25/axports file. Btw, unless your machine is going to be a high level netrom node, I don't recommend you send out Netrom beacons to have stations route traffic THROUGH you. As such, change the last parameter (called verbose) to 0. > and /etc/ax25/axports contains: > ax0 FH2LOR-1 115200 254 1 AX.25 over LoRa Don't use a name like "ax0" as this device name will be used and shown in the output of "ifconfig -a". In the axports file, I recommend to name it say "vhfdrop" or "d710". Anything will do really. --David KI6ZHD
