Re: mmdvm's connect ok and after a period of days or hours ignore pi-star.local access

The ASUS routers are wonderful things when everything is cooperating. But with all the bells, whistles, buttons and whirligigs they can be a pain in the ars to troubleshoot when their advanced features get too advanced for some devices to handle. They have been causing headache for folks who use ras...

Re: mmdvm's connect ok and after a period of days or hours ignore pi-star.local access

Do you have Automatic Power Save Delivery (WMM - APSD) enabled or disabled on the Asus Router?

Should be under Wireless->Professional settings.
If enabled, try turning it off.

The factories source code is what is closed source and you have no idea what its doing or what has been secretly installed to log your data. lol. ...

Re: XREFL database

XRF has always been a bigger pain than XLX. It would seem that the registration and tracking still is very much a manual process. Not sure exactly how Andy's process builds the http://www.pistar.uk/downloads/DExtra_Hosts.txt But you are right as of the 27th update I don't see XRF031 there. From the ...

Pi-Star Dashboard License Agreement

Pi-Star Dashboard and Components Authored by Andy need a clear License agreement. So while I am aware the majority of the PI-Star image is made up of linux and many other open source programs.
