Tow gateways on the data of a node

Gateways
1

when I see this kind of data for a node, witch one is the winning gateway:
the first one of the second one?

“gateways”: [
{
“gtw_id”: “0008004a242d”,
“gtw_trusted”: true,
“timestamp”: 4080277899,
“time”: “2018-07-16T18:30:47Z”,
“channel”: 2,
“rssi”: -17,
“snr”: 7,
“rf_chain”: 1,
“latitude”: 48.478466,
“longitude”: 1.5328383,
“location_source”: “registry”
},
{
“gtw_id”: “eui-b827ebfffe53102e”,
“timestamp”: 2139113843,
“time”: “2018-07-16T17:58:21.626079Z”,
“channel”: 2,
“rssi”: -64,
“snr”: 7.2,
“rf_chain”: 1,
“latitude”: 51.88724,
“longitude”: 6.00133,
“altitude”: 13
}
the first one is my rp3 ic880a, the second one a multitech Conduit.

and my second question, why is is there a difference in “answer” from teh gateways?

not always has the gateway that received the strongest signal, also the fastest internet connection

thank you

Winning in what way? Both gateways received and forwarded the data.

Answer?? What do you mean?

thanks for the answers.

one gateway (Multitech conduit) gives : “gtw_trusted”: true and “location_source”: “registry”.
My RP plus 880a does not give that information.

That is because that gateway uses a connection protocol that uses authentication. The RPi uses UDP without authentication.

The RPi sends fake GPS information, the MultiTech Conduit does not (the location information as set in the console is used).

If you switch the RPi to mp_pkt_fwd with appropriate configuration it will show the same entries.

by the way: the Conduit was bought and I can not change the settings, so both gateways were on the same spot.
