APRS_IS Disconnects

[Tom Schaefer]

Anyone else seeing disconnects from APRS-IS. 

Here is my log:

I can do a tcpdump on port 14580 if that would help.

It stays connected for a 30 seconds or so.

I have Reconnect upon Network failure but this must not be considered a failure to keep it from ping-ponging.

It appears to work now so that could be an issue with a specific server returned by rotate.aprs2.net

PS I am still not sure why it did not try to reconnect.

Seems the optimal thing would be to let the user specify their own call and SSID, but the pass is -1 until validated.

Servers will automatically disconnect a user if another connection is established from the same user.  Since the non-verified client is using NOCALL for everyone, if two non-verified clients happen to connect to the same server, they will ping-pong each other off the server.

For everything, there is a reason.

For most APRS Internet servers you must have a callsign and validation code, I think that is the problem.
