Android client sending, but position is not updated.
Why is the port 5050?
In fact, that's a good question, I did not see this! Thanks for pointing out, now I got somewhere to investigate further!
Ok, this is solved. It was a problem of the router. A firmware update fixed this issue. I first defined forward 5050 -> 5050, then corrected it to 5055 -> 5055, but the router made 5055 -> 5050 out of this.
Thanks a lot!
Hello Etien
Could you tell me with what to send data to the server through your raspberry
You're using openwrt or linux in general as a client?
Thanks so much

Hi allin,
I'm using Raspbian Jessie Lite on the rovers. The server is running on a debian server. Router forwards ports 5055 and 8082 (but second is not important for tracking). I am using the following script on the Raspberrys. It's simple, but it works. I need to add smart beaconing and error handling soon. Tell me when you are interested in newer versions, then I might set up a git.
NB: Remember to block all your outgoing ports on your raspberry for the mobile connection except ports 53 and 5055 if you don't have a flat rate.

Hi everyone,
I'm using some Raspberry Clients which work like a charm. I also use a Android Client (Galaxy S7, Android 7.0) which does not work. The server log looks as like this:
Which translates to

Anybody knows what's going wrong here?
