[WT-support] Network problem, explosion of duplicates

[Juha Rantanen]

I guess the first try didn't come through to the list.

Bob,

No it can't. I saw the double QSO identifier, network will be disabled“
error as well at OH5SM when I added third pc to network to be able to start
sending real time score two thirds into the contest. When I added the pc
the qso sync started normally but after about 2000 qsos I got the error
message on the mult station pc and the added pc stopped syncing with 500 or
so qsos less than the real qso total. None of the three used pc's have wifi
cards nor they run Win7. All were running xp and 4.10. Only way to get rid
of the error message was to remove the new contest folder from the added pc
and create a new contest. Second try worked as supposed.

After off list discussion, it appears it can be caused by having *both* WiFi
and wired Ethernet active on a computer at the same time.

Just set the hardware WiFi switch to OFF, or unplug the Ethernet cable, and
the problem should go away as now you will have only one connection to the
LAN per PC, instead of two.

Hmmm.

Can't it be something so simple as a L2 switching loop in your IP network
Tonno ?

This is a good question. I have started to think myself that this might be
maybe a way to find the conflict.

The stations were configured as such:

STN1 – RUN
STN2 – RUN+
STN3 – RUN+
STN4 – RUN+
STN5 – MULT

So STN1 was running and STN2 was helping him to listen to RUN frequency
with another RX antenna and could also log QSOs. And interlocked STN3 and
STN4 were doing S&P on the run band.

It is of course possible to have several support stations, the program
enables that.

Additionally STN2 had SO2R configured so that it was able to switch Active
Radio and work multipliers on other bands. The 2nd Radio for STN2 was
configured as MULT+.

It seems that the problems of the network were originated from this STN2.
The error messages and the mupliplication of the last QSO happened in this
computer. Maybe the operator forgot to change the active radio and logged a
multiplier on another band while being RUN+... But can something like that
cause such network issue...

What if two RUN+ stations logged a QSO with different station at exactly
the same moment...
