-
what type of gateway do you use (you don’t ‘connect’ to a gateway- it’s not wifi)
I don’t know the type of gateway, it’s a public one.
Yeah, yeah, I know you don’t connect. Messages are passed by the gateway to TTN, where they are refused a join.
-
what are the used antenna’s and what is the distance between GW and node
Which antenna’s are you referring to? The Sodaq Explorer board has an embedded (PCB) LoRa antenna, that’s all I can find on the Sodaq website.The gateway’s antenna is unknown to me.
Distance between gateway and node is 500 meter
P.S.: I leave the keys in the code/output for clarity. Will change them shortly.
