Cross-site double post - please choose this or TTN forum.

Try this as pre-built image from 10 days ago:

Thanks very much, just giving it a go now

the image worked and have configured LAN and can ssh into no problems. in the edit packet forwarder I have added my gateway ID. I don’t have any configuration though for TTN which I assume I would need to add in? Is there any type of GUI with these devices to very logs/packets etc? Many Thanks

I haven’t tried this firmware - other Pi based ones from RAK usually ask if you want to connect to TTN.

You will need to register the gateway with TTN and ensure your gateway is pointing at the correct domain - see their instructions.

I’ve not seen any GUI for the logs - I generally use tail to watch the action for the very short amount of time I may be debugging - once gateways are working they tend to keep on going - I only look at the logs if I’m debugging a custom node.

its very odd but I am very new to this But it does not ask for my TTN gateway id of any other info so unsure how it will work without that.

TTN asks for the gateway EUI, it doesn’t give you one.

Check out their docs on setup:
