ABP node stopped working -> Fixed by creating new ABP.. Why? :)

Well, I’ve been reading posts like this, this other one and the specification 1.0 (line 640) and I’m not sure about what frames are, are they like the physical LoRa packages?

And actually mustn’t I reset the frame conter for APB devices? because I’d say the behaviour in my case is the oposite one, I mean, apparently I’m not receiving data in the application side when I not reset it.

In fact, and due I’m still reserching my device remains usually shutdown, so … this causes that behaviour that I’m talking about and when I turn on the device I’m apparently not receiving data in the application side until I reset the frame counter (I’m not quite sure of this latter, though; it’s just my perception)

Could you clarify my how “dangerous” is to reset that frame counter when you are working with ABP devices? (according to the specification)

Thank you all.
