I have The Things Indoor Gateway and a Dragino LHT65-E1 sensor.
I was able to get the gateway and device registered in a TTN application and can see some data, but don’t understand why it might be 20 min between them.
Twenty minutes is not an unreasonable interval for a node on the shared network.
Of course it’s also quite possible you are missing packets. If you look at the frame count of the received uplinks, does it increase steadily, or are there jumps?
Depending on which exact indoor gateway you have, there are some threads about past problems with the TTIG sometimes dropping wifi during periods of inactivity.
If you haven’t changed it then I believe stock firmware is 20 min updates if on shorter SF. Certainly that is what I have seen with my own deployments… you can use the accessory cable to log in and change through commands if you want short or longer but that is reasonable for update rate vs battery life so Intend to leave as is
