Hi Colby,
Yes and I just did an apt update. here is the ifcofig -a.

Is your Pi able to access the internet, like you can do an apt update and it syncs its package cache with the raspberry pi repo and you can apt install packages that are downloaded over the internet? Show me the output of ifconfig -a

Hi Colby,

I took photos of my set up and configuration on the repeater (RP2C controller manual). I will send you the qn.cfg file.

No problems, we¡¯ll work through it.? The trick to the whole set up is the static IP on the 2nd NIC that is plugged into the ICOM repeater controller. It will have to be configured manually and be set to 172.16.0.20.? You will first need to identify how your system is labelling the device. My guess is eth1. Once you¡¯ve determined that, a static IP address can be set for that adapter (to 172.16.0.20, netmask 255.255.255.0, no gateway).? This ethernet connection should be connected directly to the repeater.? The internet serving router should be on the 10.0.0.1 network, and your primary ethernet interface (eth0) can be left to grab an IP via DHCP from the router.? This should be enough to get QnetGateway working in its default configuration.

?

If you can get a working internet connection on the Pi, and open up an SSH port and provide a user and password that I can gain root level access with, I can log in and verify the configuration (or make it for you if you like) and ensure that communication between the PI and the repeater is working, and that QnetGateway is configured correctly to get it on the air. It¡¯s a bit much for someone who hasn¡¯t done it before, and it took me a bit to figure it out.

Hi Colby,

I am sorry if was not clear, this is my first time to set up an icom repeater (ID-RP4000V) with the controller (ID-RP2C).? I appreciate all the help I can get, I might be a little slow in learning, please bear with me. Before I go any further, please? let me know if my set up will work.

Using Raspberry Pi 3 and the second NIC was connected to the USB, TP-Link. ID-RP2C 10 Base T connected to the PI 3 ethernet connection and my router/modem connected to TP-link. Will this work, if not them I will get another computer and start again.

I¡¯m a bit confused myself. Is this on a Pi? Have you changed the repeater¡¯s IP to an address on the same block your router and system are configured for?


With QnetGateway, to link to a reflector, you must put XRF072AL in the UR field. It¡¯s a bit different than the conventional ICOM stack.

?

The IPs are configured in the qn.cfg file, you have to tell it what IP your repeater is on and what IP the gateway should be listening on.

?

Show me the output of your /usr/local/etc/qn.cfg file, the output of journalctl -u qngateway, and tell me what IP your repeater is currently assigned, as well as your router, and the system you are running QnetGateway on. (The local IP addresses, i.e. 10.x.x.x, 192.168.x.x, 172.x.x.x, etc)

Hi Colby,

Thank you very much. I did what you provided and did not see any error but it would not link to where I configured to XRF072 A (Set up BXRF072A). I am a little bit confuse in setting up the IP addresses and need assistance. I am using and assigned a fixed IP address to the Gateway and assigned it on my modem/router, the same set up I did on the XLX server. I appreciate if you could assist me in setting up our Gateway link to icom repeater. Thank you.

Questions:

1. QnetGateway/qn.icom.cfg: Do I need to change any IP addresses on the qnet Gateway Configuration?

2. Icom ID-RP2C controller: following the ID-RP2C manual, setting is currently Gateway IP address: 172.16.0.20 and port is 2000; Communication Settings IP address: 172.16.0.1, Port 20319, Subnet 255.255.255.0, Def Gateway 0.0.0.0. Do I need to change any setting on the controller?

3. Where do I enter the static IP address (purchased five fixed IP address from AT&T)?
