+DarkLord Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Just a follow-up on this thread: Does anyone here use a Lantronix MSS-100 to connect their Atari to the Internet? How about a Lantronix UDS-10? If so, do you have it attached to a mainstream router (a Linksys, Netgear Belkin, etc.)? Thanks! I did use the UDS-10, but it died and I replaced it with the UDS-1100. Its been working fine every since. I've got mine attached to a DLink router. I assigned 192.168.0.104 to the UDS-1100, and then had to go under the advanced options on the Dlink and enable a virtual telnet server on port 23, to that same ip address, 192.168.0.104. I also pointed the Lantronix to the Dlink as the gateway, at 192.168.0.1 Note all this is for *incoming* calls for my BBS. I can still ping the Lantronix from any other comp on my LAN though. HTHs.

+DarkLord Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 There are quite a few people using Lantronix devices now, just read all the docs, posts here, then give it a shot. If you have any problems, just put them up here and we'll all help you anyway we can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tillek Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 I know this topic is a little old... but..... I'm having a problem getting the MSS100 working with the BBS. Actually, I figured out the part about getting it to dial out and still accept an incoming connection (which seems to be common).... My problem is the same problem as I had with the UDS1100 (but not the UDS10). When answering a call with the BBS software, it will display a line or two only and then just stop. If I cycle the power on the MSS, it will "release" the BBS and go back to the call waiting screen. It seems to work fine if I just do a connection with term programs and it dials out just fine... It just will not output more than a few lines from the BBS software (and those lines do not appear on my terminal window on the calling side). I had exactly the same problem with the UDS1100. When I switched to a UDS10, I never had a problem with it once. I really need to get it working with the MSS100 because I'm trying to set it back up with Fidonet and I'll need to be dialing out with domain names instead of IPs (something the UDSs will not do). Anyone have any pointers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DarkLord Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I wish I could help there...but I've never used the 100 - I've got an 1100, which I packed back away. It was doing some things that I never could get around, so I ended up buying some more UDS10's and using them. I can see your problem with the domain names though.

Tillek Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Sheesh.... Figured it out. For some reason, the serial fix patch caused it to get all messed up like that. Removed the patch, all better. (I remember now when I tested it before, I had disabled my autoexec.bat for the BBS that called it.....) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flashjazzcat Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Just snagged two MSS-100s on eBay for 30GBP. Gonna hook one up to my P:R: Connection eventually... Waited a long time to find a Lantronix for a reasonable price for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flashjazzcat Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 (edited) Anyone got a wiring plan for a DB25F -> DB9M modem cable to link an MSS100 to P:R: Connection? I've just tried to make one up (and I should know what I'm doing, since I studied the wiring), but I'm seeing no signs of life. One issue was that the cable I hacked up doesn't have Carrier Detect (CRX, pin 8 ) wired up at the DB25 end, so I had to jumper pins 1 and 2 at the DB9 end (DTR and CRX). Will this work? I'm using Bobterm, anyway, to test and apart from the occasional screen full of garbage I'm not getting much. No commands get any response in terminal mode. Can't really find a definitive set of MSS100 settings here either, despite an afternoon of forum searching, and being new to this I've probably exhausted my patience for the day. Anyone with a similar setup - I'd sure appreciate some pointers on the basics. OK - back to coding in the meantime.

Sorry, I don't own a lantronix terminal server (I only wish I did) but I seemed to recall someone mentioning Ataris need a null modem to connect to MSS-100 while it wasn't necessary to connect to a UDS10. So, I added "null modem" to my Google search and came up with the link below. I hope it has what you need. http://ltxfaq.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/25/~/serial-cable-wiring -SteveS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll check this against the wiring plan I used for the cable I already built. One thing: I thought I read that the P:R:C used a different RS232 pin layout than that described in the DB9->DB25 null modem cable description in the guide. It's confusing stuff!

flashjazzcat Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Ok... My wiring was way off, so I just made a new cable... Still no action but I'll check MSS100 settings when I get home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flashjazzcat Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 (edited) Still stuck... typing commands in term mode in Bobterm does nothing. Managed the recommended firmware update over the TFTP server, at least... I'll continue tomorrow.

flashjazzcat Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Is the modem cable wiring plan at the back of the P:R:C manual appropriate for an MSS100? I give up for the moment... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flashjazzcat Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 (edited) Right... no comers with the CX87 but I built one this morning and I was still getting no serial activity across the P:R: Connection. So, thanks to Simon J. Wells' suggestion the other night, I hooked up the SIO2PC connection on the "1065" device to the MSS-100 with a DB9/DB25 adapter which just arrived through the post an hour ago. Result: I can finally log into the modem via Ice-T (using the RVERTER handler). Every character I type comes up twice, but at least we're heading in the right direction. Ah... I just had to turn off "local echo". Logged into chat at atarinews.org: Working perfectly now. Edited June 7, 2013 by flashjazzcat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes - I'm not at my machine, but I think you just need to telnet to slor.atari.net 400 (for ASCII) or port 800 for VT-52. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
