AGRADECIMIENTOS
Tambien agradecer enormemente al amigo Jorge que me ha guiado y que sin su dedicacion y
enseñanzas aun estaria perdido frente al OpenWrt.
We are going to change that use and adapt to our particular needs by providing
access to the APRS network, by adding connectivity to a radio, as the following
diagram.
To do this we need to make some changes at the hardware level as well as
software, in hardware will make some modifications to enable connectivity of the
necessary equipment and software level, we change the original firmware of the
router on the other Firmware that will allow us to add new software required for
use of equipment added and connected to the router as well as the correct
treatment of the information handled.
HARDWARE MODIFICATIONS
2- Solder the pins on the wiring for the serial ports of router port 0 and 1.
No need to solder all the pins of two serial ports that are in the plate or pins for
the JTAG port, but it never hurts to have them ready, especially, have both serial
ports ready for possible extensions of use.
These converters are available online at this site and its price is less than 3 €,

There are several versions of OpenWRT, the latest version is called Backfire be
the last revision of 10.3-rc3.
● Step Two .- Enter the Router with the browser http://192.168.1.1 in paragraph

● Step Six .- Let's configure the router so you can access the Internet,
we understand that you have configured your home network for internet
access Fixed IP mode, we enter the menu option
Administration/Network/Interfaces/Lan.
● Step Eight .- Let's refresh our router packages that need, one of them
is the Microcom, communications program that will serve us to connect
from the router through the serial port that we installed on it, and APRX
package, program the treatment of radio signals entered into the router via
the serial port.
● Eleventh Step .- APRX now configure the manual can be downloaded from us here
http://ham.zmailer.org/oh2mqk/aprx/aprx-manual.pdf, to prevent flooding of the
frequency of packet transmissions that come to us by from internet APRS servers, you
can set the mode aprx "iGate RX-ONLY", so the installation of several even iGate are
close among them would not affect the packages that air from the equipment Mobile
APRS preventing packet loss by collision
Edit the file "/ etc / aprx.conf", and put the data for our illustration, the
server you want to connect and send the information, the port and speed and
other particulars of the port you have connected the TNC, the iGate
coordinates, etc.

Once modified and saved the configuration file, and we mounted the iGate, if
you want to check what is happening in our iGate while working, we will use
the following command:
We can also check the status of our iGate with the command:
We can turn off and turn our iGate with the following command:
