Yes, it is needed.

Yes, using the OTAA method to join will have your problem, you should use the ABP method to join.

xc.c,

thx.
I made a duplicate sd (and some backups) and stopped the Loriot gateway after booting the duplicate.
There was no uninstall.sh although they mentioned it.
I manually moved/renamed the /opt/lrt and rebooted.

The TTN gateway was easy to install with the link you provided.

I can swap the sd cards now to choose the network Loriot or TTN.

Harald

I'm very sorry, based on the information you are currently providing, I can't tell you what is wrong with you. Let's sort out:
1.What frequency band equipment are you buying?
2.Did you configure it successfully? Is the global_conf.json file replaced by the 915 configuration?
3.Is your node 915 frequency band?
4.Maybe you should restart your TTN.

Solved.

Connect GPIO17 (Pin 11 from Raspberry) to RST (Pin 19 RAK 831)
Conect GPIO25 (Pin 22 from Raspberry) to RADIO_RST(pin 13 RAK831)

And add this code at begin of start.sh

Reset iC880a PIN2

SX1301_RESET_BCM_PIN_2=17
echo "$SX1301_RESET_BCM_PIN_2" > /sys/class/gpio/export
echo "out" > /sys/class/gpio/gpio$SX1301_RESET_BCM_PIN_2/direction
echo "0" > /sys/class/gpio/gpio$SX1301_RESET_BCM_PIN_2/value
sleep 0.1
echo "1" > /sys/class/gpio/gpio$SX1301_RESET_BCM_PIN_2/value
sleep 0.1
echo "0" > /sys/class/gpio/gpio$SX1301_RESET_BCM_PIN_2/value
sleep 0.1
echo "$SX1301_RESET_BCM_PIN_2" > /sys/class/gpio/unexport

@Charles What is your LoRa gateway device? What frequency band are you using?

What is your LoRa gateway?

It may be that TTN does not enable this feature.

@rakadmin I resolved the issue, Gateway config was the problem. Thanks.

Replying to "RAK831 Developers Kit - howto connect as a gateway/forwarder to TTN"

@vk4lc said in RAK831 Developers Kit - howto connect as a gateway/forwarder to TTN:

Ok.... installed converter and RAK831 onto a different Pi3 and got a new EUI which I setup on TTN console, but exactly the same result.

I then changed my router from the Australian one to the ttn eu router...... and now it shows up.

It seems that the Australian router might be the issue, so I'll update the EUI.json file on github and it'll hopefully be pushed out tonight.

@stevenkramer said in RAK811 Wiskey Unresponsive after otaa join TTN network:

So that is something i am curious about, is the supplied antenna specifically for 868 or is it intended for both 868 and 915? It seems that way.

I measured my set-antenna around 1.08GHz. Works great for ADS-B, not so great for LoRa...

What's you region do you used?
