Hi,

I decided to create a post because I already tried everything I found, so :

I’m trying to connect an end-node (Heltec Wifi Lora 32 V2 - Europe) through my own gateway (Heltec Wifi Lora 32 V2 - Europe too) with OTAA.

The join request is detected by TTN console but I don’t see any downlink to active the device ?

(All the keys are in msb)

The console :

The end-node :

The Gateway :

(We can see “0 Packages Downlink”)

If anyone have an idea I’m really stuck…  
Thanks

Your using a Heltec Wifi Lora 32 V2 node as a Gateway ?

Single Channel Packet Forwarders are not LoRaWAN compliant gateways. They negatively impact proper operation of gateways and end devices (nodes) in their area which means they negatively impact The Things Network and its users, but they also impact other LoRaWAN operators. Not only now, but also in the future w…

That is not a gateway and it will not work. Get a real gateway please.
