When you jam an uplink terminal, is there a timer to complete it? Or does it just jammed as soon as you hit the option?
Also, can you jam the uplink while in combat?

you have to complete a little puzzle to jam it.
Dunno if it works in combat, but if you're planning on running in there without killing stufffirst, and jamming it, forget about it

Has anyone been able to jam an uplink terminal of an opposing faction base? If so, how is it done? I have not been able to do it. I am overt at the time, I radial the terminal and select "Jam Terminal", but nothing happens. Any insight??

I did a couple today and they worked fine. After you select Jam Terminal it should give you a list that you play higher and lower with until you get the right one. They work fine on Eclipse server.

Is there anything that has to be done before this? And what profession is needed? I am trying to get INV exp, and dont really have the resourses of any other professions. Seems they are all grinding FS exp

Jamming the uplink is the first step. That is done by a BH.

Best way to do this is to have a friend that is opposite faction send you waypoints of all the small forward posts. THen you need to get feign death and go to them. Run in, have /target uplink as a macro, run to it, feign death, get up and use it, then run out, and its an easy 1k inv xp. I got inv 3 and 4 in about 90 minutes doing this.

No there is another terminal that a smug slices, know what you are talking about please. It takes an entire crew to take a base down, each one of them does something to a terminal.
However the bh one is first.. Though you might need a group to get into the base. (I just used my jedi then logged the bh and ran in...)

You cannot do inv 3 and 4 in 90 min..... that would mean you found and jammed about something like 26 bases in 90 min. I dont' care what server you are on, it's not possible.
This method will take a few hours, but it is quite a bit faster than doing the BH mission. If you do about 5 an hour... that's the same as doing 10 BH missions in an hour.... which is not really possible with wait times for droids and travel time. So it is fast.
here's what you'll need to do (no smuggler is needed), but a reb buddy helps.
go to base, run in, /target uplink, run to it... while you are targeting the uplink, open the radial menu and DO NOTHING ELSE. Wait for the rebs/imps to incap you.
once you are incapped a second option will appear on the radial menu (you may need to refresh it, but you will have had to have it open before you got incapped)
now, choose the jam uplink command and jam away.... it's dummy proof.
when you regain consciousness, burst run out..... 1k bh xp more than you went in with.
Note - If things go bad on the inside.... and you die.... if you already had the radial menu open before you died..... YOU CAN STILL JAM THE UPLINK WHILE DEAD! Don't clone until after you complete it.
Note - don't have anything you value on your body while doing this.... cause you might get decay... but usualy triple incap death doesn't cause decay
Note - get a PSG... it'll help when you are running in and out.
