Please Help
My IC-2820 will not connect remotely. It does work fine on local network. The control is going through a Cradlepoint MBR95 with a Verizon 3g card, and the radio side is using a Linksys WRT160n. On the Radio side, the PWR light is on steady, but there is a flashing amber LED on the AUX/MIC. I read that I should disable SIP/ALG but that doesn't seem to be an option on either of my routers. Could that be the problem?
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Steve

Steve,
Taking a quick look at this, what is quickly obvious is that your control RRC is not set to DHCP = on. In this case, you must either turn it on (recommended for the control side, anyway), or make sure that the fixed internal IP number matches the subnet of the control RRC's router.
If this is not the problem, then I would need to do some more analysis when I have some time, or else someone else can take a look at your listings.
I also need to point out that using 3G to access remotely is often "iffy". Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Seems to be a combination between the 3G network and the router used. I have experienced several cases where it would only work when another router was used.
Also, there are some settings that should be optimized for 3G use. These utilize the bandwidth better and try to compensate for latency problems. Here is a short summary from my side:
These two are important:
- audio quality to 0
- turn continuous RTP on
Play around with these 3 until you are satisfied:
- increase rx jitter buffer to min 10
- increase rx jitter delay to min 12
- audio packet size 20 or 40
Also, make sure that any serial port is turned off if not used, and that any being used are set to the minimum bps necessary to handle the serial communication. For example, use 4800 for CAT on a rig like the TS-480 and not a high speed like 57600, since the higher speed is unnecessary.
I hope this helps.
