[afnog] Non-transmitting iDirect 3000 Series Satellite Router

[Dick Elleray at AfriConnect]

Hi

Ensure your 3100 has correct options files for its serial number, check NOC
has enabled  that serial number, check they have reloaded 3100 firmware and
options file (you have good rx so unicast will work), check BUC has 24v at
the BUC end, swop BUC.
Swop cross site cables checking Rx snr doesn't change.

Second router with same issue = bad buc or cross site cables  or options
file imho

Ask NOC to check the TX in scpc mode to see if they can see ANY Tx from
site.

Hello,

I have a stumping issue with an iDirect 3000 Series Remote Satellite Router
that won't transmit. The receive LED is solid green and certified very good
by NOC but Transmit LED won't come on. NOC gave various instructions to
installers which were all executed but no luck. Power supply is certified
good and this is a second router with same issue.

Is there a command to get the modem to transmit? From my observations, the
router is running a linux variant and provider is SDN Global/US. 

LED Status -
Power - Solid green
Status - Solid green
Net - flashing yellow
Transmit - Off (***what would make you turn green my friend?***) Receive -
Solid green

Thanks for your solutions.

Joseph
