Re: Netrom Node updates
You're looking for MINQUAL. If you set this too low you may advertise nodes that others cant reach. This may help you get a better overall idea of how netrom works:

Re: Netrom Node updates
If you set QUALITY on a KISS port config, and don't set NODESINTERVAL to zero you will send NODES broadcasts. But I think you are saying that you are not receiving NODES messages. You don't have to do
