Hi - I’ve been playing around with my RAK4631 on a RAK19003 for a few days trying to get it to connect to my ChripstackOS system (a RAK 7248P running full ChripstackOS since the build script is still broken) and have been unable to get an OTAA to happen successfully. Ive been using numerous different methods from my own Arduino scripts implementing methods to the LoRaWAN_OTAA_ABP example. Each time I get
Welcome to RAK4630 LoRaWan!!!
Type: OTAA
Region: US915
OTAA join failed!
Check your EUI’s and Keys’s!
Check if a Gateway is in range!
Ive validated my Keys numerous times, and scanned every thread I can find on this topic and none have come to any resolution. Chirpstack is picking up frames from the gateway so I know it’s receiving as expected. I’ve played around with all the different possible bands including just using non-us bands to see if it will work (dont tell the FCC).
Here is my code im running on the device deployed via Arduino:

Ive also reviewed the documentation here to see if it could guide me but cannot replicate. WisBlock/examples/RAK4630/communications/LoRa/LoRaWAN at master · RAKWireless/WisBlock · GitHub
Does anyone have any ideas?
