Hello

I am setting up DVSwitch to connect to an AllStar node in my house.  I can connect to it using IAXRPT on the PC, but when I try this with DVSwitch, it goes into a loop connecting and disconnecting. 

A friend looked into this and suggested that I post the following information. Can someone help us with this?

Message follows:

I have an Allstar node (Raspberry Pi 4) running HamVoip. I've done an update, so it's running all of the latest patches.

When I use DVSwitch to connect to my node (519980), the following error shows up in the Asterisk CLI log level 4. Note that if I have "autoload node" set to ON, the message repeats itself over and over until there is a crash.

Running DVSwitch 1.57 (130).

          Starting Asterisk client. Please type: exit<ENTER>
           when done and you will return to the admin menu.

Here are the files.

BTW, the nodes we are working with are 519980 and 519981.

Here are iax.conf and extensions.conf

Thanks for your help.

If you're phone is connected to your home router's wireless then you are attempting to connect to IAX on your local network  (LAN). Assuming that you have your ports forwarded properly, IAX is listening on the wide Area network (WAN). 

Solution: Simply disconnect your phone from the local wireless network and use the cell phone network (WAN) to connect to IAX.

This situation is similar to one that Echolink users who have Echolink setup on their PC's with ports forwarded and then try to use the phone app to connect. Echolink has provisions for using a proxy server but I don't know of any proxy servers for IAX.
