Refer to Server Addresses | The Things Stack for LoRaWAN for the correct server addresses

Hi Johan, thank you for your reply. What gareway server does the dashboard refer to? Is it a paid service?

In your console on what cluster did you configure your gateway?

The configuration on your gateway needs to correlate to the cluster on the console.

You also only need the one address for the cluster you are using on the gateway.

If you are on the US cluster you only need nam1.thethings.cloud.network

nam1.thethings.cloud.network

I really appreciate your help. The console continues to report "other cluster"

Can you tell me what I’m wrong about please?

You need to make sure from your gateway you can see the TTN.

Mikrotik Gateway - Offline - not reconnecting

Hello, First I can ping via the ethernet interface the RouterOS but can not log into the RouterOS with WinBox. Looks like you kept the default firewall, which blocks connections coming from ether1… as wAP is a one ether port device, is blocking winbox from connecting. As this is LAN device, I assume you have another router/firewall protecting your LAN; so you can safely disable ip > firewall > filter rules; or more easily, go to interfaces, interface list tab, there will be a LAN and a WAN …

Thanks for your quick reply Johan, should I be able to ping nam1.thethings.cloud.network from routerOS?
Or how can I test if I reach the server?

I think they are blocking a ping to nam1.cloud.thethings.network.

But if you plug you PC into the same port as gateway and you use your browser to nam1.cloud.thethings.network it should resolve it an try to log into the console.

Re: Gateway Server Address: shouldn’t this be nam1.cloud.thethings.network and NOT nam1.thethings.cloud.network ?
Just a thought?

Johan, thank you for your selfless help. At last my gateway is online.

I also set those first two default mikrotik servers to 0.0.0.0
