KiwiSDR with Netgear Nighthawk MR1100 mobile router

in Configuration and Operation

Hello all,

I need some help please in setting up my Kiwi SDR on the router.

I have had the Kiwi SDR working fine on my home network for some time.

I am now wanting to run it remotely at a property hundreds off km from here at a very quiet location.

I can connect my pc OK though the ethernet port to the router.

I do not understand why the Kiwi SDR is on working through the router.

Kind Regards

Stuart

    do you have port forwarding set up on the router?

    Hi no not too sure how to do that and what to set it too.

    assuming your Kiwi is on port 8073, you need to set a route for that port in your router from the WAN to whatever local IP# your router assigns to the kiwi. I'll see if I can find the manual for your router and get more info.

    You could also try setting (admin/network tab) the "Auto add NAT rule on firewall / router?" switch. If it works you'll get a message in green at the top of the page a moment after making the change. This is somewhat easier than configuring a manual NAT/forwarding entry on your router.

    However this only works if UPnP (universal plug-and-play) is already enabled on your router. If not, then you have to enable the UPnP setting on your router.
