<div>Hi All, I want to pass d-rats through my hotspot, I have configured the
network, the Hotspot software is on a different PC to D-Rats.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Here’s my dilemma, when I send the message the HT radio (monitoring the
hotspot) receives a TX Blip similar to if I were hard wired to the radio as a
port, so I know it’s going somewhere. I have another radio (mobile) connected to
the same Gateway via a different node, this also gets the TX Blip but no text
appears, same in the reverse. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Neither station can ping the other.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>My hotspot uses DPRS and this works fine, I see my node and mobile stations
on <a href="http://aprs.fi">aprs.fi</a> , in D-rats the network address is correct (an internal network IP),
the port 20003 is correct.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>If I place the Mobile radio on the simplex frequency of the node (the same
as the HT) the message pops up when sent. But I guess this is then direct not
through the gateway or hotspot software.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>When my hotspot sends my periodic station position to <a href="http://Aprs.fi">Aprs.fi</a> the map
feature shows it up in D-Rats mapping and my hotspot shows up in the stations
list to the right of the chat window.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>What am I doing wrong, it’s baffling me?</div>
