    Default VS Platinum & XX-Client

    I there, I have a VS Platinum running with the RQ SSP bin. It is attached to a WRT54GS running XX-Client v2.5.57.273 via a serial cable with no luck getting picture. All I can see in the OpenWRT syste log is:

    Sep 28 19:12:14 OpenWrt user.debug syslog: xx-client: Connected to xxxxxxx.xxx.xx
    Sep 28 19:12:15 OpenWrt user.debug syslog: xx-client: Login successful. [CaID: 1802]
    Sep 28 19:12:15 OpenWrt user.debug syslog: xx-client: Waiting for requests.
    Sep 28 19:13:15 OpenWrt user.debug syslog: xx-client: No server with matching CaID. [0 != 1802]
    Sep 28 19:13:30 OpenWrt user.debug syslog: xx-client: No server with matching CaID. [0 != 1802]


    Any help will be much appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Just curious negritosanto; I have a real close setup as yours (except VS Ultra)
    Syslog same as yours; except CaID:1816; and I don't have your last 2 lines.
    VS works with windows version of Rq-sssp; but can't get going with router
    versions (tried both Rq-SSP & XX-Client)
    If not mistaken null modem cable uses only 3 wires (RX, Tx & Gnd.)
    That makes me suspect comm settings or adapter board not working properly.
    If you have yours running; would love to know what kind of TTL to RS232 adapter
    board you have or any peculiar settings you had to change.
    Any advice much appreciated.

    Hi there Joe... the TTL adapter I'm using is the simplest one using the MAX232 chip (you can see it at hxxp://www.jbprojects.net/articles/wrt54gl_mods/) and the serial cable is the same that I use to program the VS. Goofather has been kind enough to give some pointers but to this day I haven't managed to make the VS work with the router. I've only changed the INI's files with my own server data, serial speed (115200) and SSP protocol (I believe is #3)..Everything else is as stock.... Sorry I wasn't much of a help....

    Thanks for the reply negritosanto. I'm familiar with the JBprojects webpage & comparing the board schematics there
    with the board I got from nkcelectronics; they look very similar. I also noticed on the jbprojects page a way to test
    serial port communications using hyperterminal & the echo command directing it out to /dev/tts/1 when you
    SSH into router.
    So far no luck, which is probably the why the router doesn't work with rqssp / xx-client.
    I haven't given up yet; but I'm getting pretty close.

    you are getting connected
    you have a CaID mismatch which would need to be remapped

    [caid.ini]

    If you need to use CaID remapping simply place a line for each CaID that needs to be remapped.

    Like so -

    1841=1815
    1802=1816

    [xx-client.ini]

    negritosanto; as I was typing my post just a few minutes ago it occurred to me the one thing I did not try.
    I was thinking since I had a null modem adapter (swaps pin 2 & 3) on output, I did not have to worry about
    confusing Tx/Rx. But then a light came on. I swapped Tx/Rx on the input side of max232 presto.
    The whole damn thing works. In other words Tx on router must go to TxIN on max232; Rx on router must go
    to RxOUT on max232. Also, follow the instructions on jb projects page for testing serial port using echo;
    that worked as well.

    The same thing said to me Goofather to do but it didn't work.... But as I said I'm not yet to give up...

    negritosanto,

    Been out of town last few days.
    Yes, working fine with rq-sssp, just have not got around to try xx-client yet.
    My problem was a serial communications issue; not sure about yours.
    That's why I mentioned testing your serial port per instructions on JB Projects page.
    Assuming you have a PC with serial port, that test just takes a few minutes to setup.
    Your serial port has to pass that test or you will never get xx-client or rq-sssp to work.

    means that it couldnt get the decryption codes.. Probably due to the ongoing ECM.. I would wait a while till the servers recuperate.

    It's now "Failed to read network stream."... So, what could it be?
