instructions and list?

Thanks

you mean the command to connect to another node?

Via keyboard, web or RF?

And does the node show up on the map?

The node is 24001, Yes it know shows on the linking map.

Yes the connect and disconnect commands to link to other repeaters and regional nodes.

Well, what method? 

You can click on the node on the map, click manage and it will come up and allow you to type in a node number to connect to.

This does require that your firewall is correctly configured for the port mapping (typically port 4569) to be passed directly through to the Pi IP address.

If you want to do it via the Pi on a keyboard.  You will need to log into the Pi.

Type 'sudo asterisk -r'  the prompt will change.  Type rpt fun 24001 *3xxxxx with the xxxxx being the node number you want to connect to.

Via RF it's a DTMF command.  *3XXXXX.  Again XXXXX is the node number. You should get a verbal announcement that the connection was made with both node numbers or you will get a 'connection failed'. 

This is if you haven't been messing about in the configuration files turning things on and off.  But that's the three methods I use on a regular basis.
