hi
i am new in Lora , i have connected my gateway and lora end node,
i got this result in my TTN,
does it mean that my node is connected correctly to my gateway?
Welcome!
Yes, sort of.
Technical the answer is no - devices connect to network servers - the gateway just listens for appropriate radio signals and passes them on - a device can be heard by many gateways if they are in range - there is no handshake between the device & gateway or any authorisation required.
Your next step will be to setup an integration to get the data being passed on to your end application.
thank you for the reply.
i use arduino lmic master library,
you mean receiving data in downlink?
this is my serial monitor but unfortunately it does not show me any ack .
would you please help understanding the problem?
and here is my code in arduino uno:

* This example sends a valid LoRaWAN packet with payload "Hello,

*
* This uses OTAA (Over-the-air activation), where where a DevEUI and

* activation procedure where a DevAddr and session keys are
* assigned/generated for use with all further communication.
*
* Note: LoRaWAN per sub-band duty-cycle limitation is enforced (1% in
* g1, 0.1% in g2), but not the TTN fair usage policy (which is probably
* violated by this sketch when left running for longer)!
* To use this sketch, first register your application and device with
* the things network, to set or generate an AppEUI, DevEUI and AppKey.
* Multiple devices can use the same AppEUI, but each device has its own
* DevEUI and AppKey.

* Do not forget to define the radio type correctly in config.h.

}There isn’t a problem - we don’t normally get an ACK - there is the facility to do so but it is used rarely as gateways can’t hear on any of its 8 channels if it is transmitting.

hello i connect my node with private mqtt broker and from mqtt broker i send a message i received at gateway but not received at node serial monitor.
You are describing a private setup functionally distinct from the public TTN system and software which this forum is about. You’ll have to look elsewhere for support, as this is not on topic here. Try researching support resources for the major software components you are using, particularly on the network side.
