I have a small fleet of Trbo radios linked up with radio management. Server is on a dedicated machine for Motorola stuff, like battery fleet management (for a mix of Trbo and APX).
I have 9 locations, all with VPN on the same network. All the wired PCs (including remote locations) work fine for BMS. My problem is the WiFi for RM. Sometimes it works, then eventually it stops. I’m not entirely sure when it dies, as I send a job and forget it for a few months until another change needs to be made.
Firewall on the server is totally off. I gave up messing with letting individual ports through when I found windows updates were re-securing them. I can ping the server from the SSID the radios are on. I can ping the radios from the server. Server has static IP.
For ease of troubleshooting, I’m focusing on the local network that has one of the wifi APs and the server. No sense bothering with the more complex VPN / remote locations if it doesn’t work locally.
A handful of remote Pcs also have RM suite installed, minus the server part. Radios will instantly program if a job is pending when plugged into USB. So, I know there’s some communications occurring over the network to and from the server, I’m just having an issue with the Wi-Fi side. I’m using default ports in codeplugs and each part of the RM server stuff. In the codeplug, it is directed to the correct IP for the server.
Any ideas?
