Anyone have a simplex, 2 mtr freq that they're using for 9600b? > Suggestions will be appreciated. I'm looking for a clear spot in the > 145.50 - 145.80 range. We're using 145.67 for 1200b TCP/IP. While we're on the subject...we are having a discussion in our area (central Tennessee USA) about the merits of putting 9600 b/s user ports on the 2-m band vs. the 3/4-m band. I'd like to hear from others who are currently running 9600 b/s user access ports as to what band is used, why, and what problems, if any, are encountered. [The basic arguments seem to be: for -- reduces cost, people already have a radio; against -- difficult or not possible to find a frequency.] Our topography (hilly) also causes major problems with hidden transmitters. I'd also like to know if anybody is running a full-duplex regenerating digital repeater and how that is working out.

Allbery" Subject: More Wampes & Ethernet To: jgrau@rigel.etse.urv.es In your message of Tue, 18 Jan 1994 11:46:20 +0700, you write: +--------------- | How to configure the WAMPES program to reconize the ethernet card? | | May be with the command "start tcpgate ..." as say Brandon S. Allbery. | Yes i have de aix tcp/ip run. | | Or using AIX device drivers ... where can i get it? | | Or may WAMPES can not be a gateway to internet-packet radio (listening | ethernet card & packet radio). +--------------- You will need to either (a) use the tcpgate server to gateway between native and WAMPES TCP/IP, or (b) get a special device driver for AIX which makes the Ethernet card available to WAMPES directly. Note that if you do (b) you will lose kernel networking. Since I don['t think the driver for (b) exists, you would have to write it yourself... Or, depending on whether AIX supports it, (c) set up a SLIP link over a pty between WAMPES and AIX. I and several others are doing this with JNOS under Linux, and I think a few people are doing the same with WAMPES. But some *ixes don't like to run SLIP over a pty. ++Brandon -- Brandon S.

Angus" Subject: New 3COM cards To: tcp-group@ucsd.edu I know, another FAQ, but I need to know where to get the packet driver for the 3com 3C509 (Etherlink III) card. The local sources here only include the 3com 3C501/503/579 cards. Along with my hard drive crash, I lost the drivers I had, and information on where to get everything. (Note: I have a tape drive now.

I figure anything that large is non-maintainable, and worthy of breaking it down into modules which compile fast. That module is WAY too large now. I tried shutting all the mbox stuff off except MAILBOX and even that wouldn't compile.
