Thanks mike, Ill try that next.

Hi, I changed over a few months ago from Yaesu FT857 to Icom 7100 set up and all has worked perfectly until the last few days.

Now when I switch on, the radio works normally for anything between 20 seconds and a minute then disconnects.

Radio will reconnect every time when switched on again but disconnect after a very short period.

If control RRC is connected to local network at radio end all works normally.

I am using an Icom 7100 with a pair of RCC 1258 mk2's running version 2.95
RRC'S are both using default settings.

I have conducted a series of speed tests at the radio end and noticed a possible latency issue.
Download speed is around 43Mbs and upload around 6.8Mbs but the upload latency is very erratic,
from between 200ms to 780ms, could possibly be my problem? 
If this is an issue that could be causing the frequent disconnections are there any RRC settings that can be tweaked
that may help resolve this problem?

Thanks for reading my post, I would be most grateful for any advice on this issue

73, Mal

Hi
I have been running my remote station for a number of years with with a Yaesu 857 and RRC1258 ver 2.91, a little unreliable but most of the time it worked.

I've recently changed over to an Icom IC-7100, made all the necessary mods and tested at my home QTH.  All working fine.

Took both units to my remote location, again all working fine on that network.

Tested with control rrc and head unit at home QTH but unable to connect.

ddns status both ends OK,
control rrc shows  Sip status "unknown 1"
last sip error shows "Sip error" when I attempt to connect.

Router at radio end all looks ok, radio rrc ip set up in dmz as with previous setup

When I enter remote router external ip in my home pc browser it takes me directly to the radio rrc but still cant connect via control rrc.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Mike, thanks for your kind offer. Ill get everything set up over the weekend and install Team Viewer on my PC.
I know how difficult fault finding can be without direct access so maybe this is the best way forward.

Thanks both for your replies.
The mic is connected to the RRC control Aux/Mic jack.
The cat 5 patch lead is connected from the radio RRC Aux/ Mic jack to the radio RJ45 jack.
Everything works as it should except for the lack of audio on the TX signal
When the PTT is pressed RX audio is muted control and radio end and the radio transmits a carrier but no audio
If I plug the mic directly into the radio RJ45 everything works including TX audio so the problem is not the microphone.

Hi Mike, thanks for your reply.
I have today removed both strapping pcb's, checked for correct orientation and continuity and all is good.
I have also double checked all the jumpers and can see no issue there either.
Cat 5 cable from radio rrc to radio also been checked and another cable tried but no change.

Hi Mike, thanks for your reply, apart from being wide banded the FT-857 is all standard including the MH31 mic.

The one I have is
 RRC-1258MkIIs v7 FT-857 is a package with hardware and software for the Yaesu FT-857.
The control cables are included and no strapping is needed, only IP-configurations etc.

As you can see from the description it should be more or less plug and play but I will double check the strapping pcb's (1258Y-3 Yaesu) tomorrow.

Hi Mitch, thanks for your reply, the units I have uses a  small, pre wired pcb installed where the straps would normally be fitted. both of these are snugly fitted into the sockets so I think the problem lies elsewhere.  I will however check for continuity between the appropriate pins in case a track is damaged. 73 Mal

Hi everyone, I am currently setting up my remote station with a Yaesu FT857 and have purchased the dedicated RRC1258 mk2 kit including all connection cables and pre installed jumpers.
Everything appears to be working fine except I have no TX audio.  If I connect via LAN or via internet doesn't make any difference, the problem persists. 
 I have gone through all the settings on both units and can see no issues there.
 I have also tried it with the mic plugged directly into the radio instead of the control unit and TX audio then works fine.  I just wondered if anyone is familiar with this problem and could suggest how I might resolve the issue.
