[Dstar] D-Plus Dashboards for VK - some have dissappeared

[Richard Hoskin]

Hi Nick,

 

All WIA VK D-Star repeaters have limited ADSL bandwidth at the repeater
site. The ADSL bandwidth is primarily reserved for repeater DV & DD
communications.

 

When the D-Plus dashboards pages are available, ADSL bandwidth for DV & DD
communications is reduced especially on the uplink, as the connected web
browsers are frequently downloading the D-Plus dashboard pages from the
Gateway server. This causes degradation (R2D2, Jitter & slow voices) on the
DV communications channels when the local repeater becomes busy. The
degradation is especially noticeable for DV-Dongle users.

 

As Most of the information that was on the D-Plus dashboards is available
from other sources such as  <http://www.jfindu.net/dstarlh.aspx?rptr=VK3RWN>
http://www.jfindu.net/dstarlh.aspx?rptr=VK3RWN,
<http://www.dstarusers.org/viewrepeater.php?system=VK2RWN>
http://www.dstarusers.org/viewrepeater.php?system=VK2RWN etc. the lack of a
dashboard is not critical to the dissemination of D-Star information.

 

Cheers

Richard

Hi all, 

 

Has anyone else noticed that some of the have dissappeared?? Does anyone
know why and when they might be back up again? It made a hell of a
difference when they were available. Now it's a guessing game again... 

 

Cheers,
