Trying to automate some traceroute behavior. Works on USB ports, but, not consistently on –host IP.

using python 2 on windows 10, ethernet connected ip address 192.168.1.80 and the remote lora meshtastic host is a lilygo T-Beam on 192.168.1.87

Executing:

python -m meshtastic –host 192.168.1.87 –traceroute !1c498944
Connected to radio
Sending traceroute request to !1c498944 on channelIndex:0 (this could take a while)
Route traced:
!1c498944 –> !1c498944

yea it works…

Should I be able to traceroute from a remote meshtastic device?

python -m meshtastic –host 192.168.1.87 –traceroute !06e2718a
Connected to radio
Sending traceroute request to !06e2718a on channelIndex:0 (this could take a while)
Aborting due to: Timed out waiting for traceroute

Running the meshtastic app on android I connect to host 192.168.1.87 and traceroute to !06e2718a with immediate reply of success.
