[NOAAPORT #HTM-284378]: NOAAPort UDP Bad Length

Hi Justin,

re:

We are using something close, but slightly different:

#
# Enable DVBS reception
#
net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter = 2

#
# DVBS multicast fragment reassembly 
#
net.ipv4.ipfrag_max_dist = 0

re:

OK.

re:

Nothing that I can see.

Questions:

- are you using the Novra S300N receiver?

- if yes, what version of the firmware are you running?

- again if yes, what does your Novra report for:

  Uncorrectable Rate:
  Packet Error Rate:

  and

  Carrier to Noise C/N:


Cheers,

Tom
