Re: Incorrect time and date

Raspberry Pi's do not have a native, onboard clock (RTC) that maintains the time/date between power outages. It "fakes" the clock by saving the current time/date values when powered off and restoring them when you come back up. It's the job of the operating system (not Pi-Star) to resync t...

Re: PiStar HotSpot question

No. Just reconfigure your existing HS to use DMRGateway. This gateway incorporates, can interconnect multiple networks, including Brandmeister and TGIF. There's lot of docs out there showing how this is done. Here's one example <https://brara.org/BLOG/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/configure-a-pi-star-h...

Re: PiStar HotSpot question

Brandmeister is world-wide; you can connect to any Talk Group in the US or UK or elsewhere, all from one hotspot.

Re: Pi-Star dashboard is not "Listening"

If the dashboard is blank (the TRx line in the "Radio Info" panel is blank), then you are not connecting to the attached MMDVM board. Go to the Configuration panel, then to Expert, then to SSH. Enter the command "sudo pistar-findmodem". What do you get? If it comes back with a va...

Re: pi-star and ipv6

There is no regression here: Buster (and Bullseye) versions of Pi-Star support IPV6! https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/538478/enable-ipv6-on-debian-10-if-there-is-no-proc-sys-net-ipv6-folder Run these commands: sudo modprobe configs; zcat /proc/config.gz | grep CONFIG_IPV6= sudo modprobe -c |...

Re: ID number and not the call on the display DMR porto

Yes, that would be normal. HT's shipped from the factories would not normally have much filled in the base codeplug. And Codeplugs downloaded from websites or given to you by a friend usually have out-dated contact lists. With 50+ new id's being added each day, expect to be updating your codeplug's ...

Re: pi-star and ipv6

Buster does support IPV6. The message "does not support IPV6" could mean that your ISP does not support it. I'd confirm that first, then dig deeper into your system: I suspect you're missing something in your configs. Search the logs for messages related to IPV6, DHCDCP, SYSCTL, etc. and s...

Re: pi-star and ipv6

Have you tried using "sudo" before your editting commands? e.g. "sudo nano /etc/sysctl.conf".

Re: orange pi mmdvm

There are no MMDVM hats for Orange Pi (26 pinouts) that I'm aware of. But RPi's are back in the channels at reasonable prices: an 8gb Pi4-B at $55; other sizes should be out soon, appropriately priced. Unobtaninium is not a viable excuse any more.
