Looks like we are close to hitting 60k Dev’s/Members & 6k GW’s in time for The Things Conf - should put a smile of the faces of so folk - @wienkegiezeman@johan@laurens@Rish1@htdvisser et al!
Was difficult to track progress/status over weekend & last few days with back end/reporting issues wrt GW’s but looks clear now…
…doing my bit to get there…#23 went live last night, #024 just in process of registration - rebooting! (both additional self builds) and a new factory built GW on way from disty that I hope to get online as my #25 around time of TTC
I just looked back at old posts and we hit 50k/5k back last Oct - adding 1k/qtr since, same as June posting when 40k/4k - again we then again added 1k/qtr…
…interesting that my 1st post on this was Feb 18 when we hit 33k/3k so heading towards doubling over 1 year!
We just missed the 6K GW as I suspect many travelling to the TTC turned off their GW’s - or even took them with them…we actually fell back for a few days.
Fortunately many folk now back home and turning GW’s back on and adding their giveaway $69 GW’s
Slowly watched the #'s recover over last few days so when I saw this earlier this afternoon:
I quickly did this:
as was planning a new GW deployment up in the N.West UK Friday/Saturday
& Yeah! >6k just seen for the 1st time …and I will claim #6000
I’ve written a quick and dirty parser of the JSON from http://noc.thethingsnetwork.org:8085/api/v2/gateways"
If I only count the number of gateways which have been online within the past hour I get ~5575, within the past 24hours ~5981 and within the past 48hours: ~6219
I guess I’ve just answered my own question?! The figure is a total of all active gateways within the past 24hours?
