Hi,

im using RN2483 mote (LCD) EVAL-board ( Ver. RN2483 1.0.1 Dec 15 2015 09:38:09) with The Things Gateway.

When i start a transmission over LCD menue, i receive the data on the gateway.

But if i want to transmit two bytes of data with a terminal program like TeraTerm i cant receive it.

My steps:

mac join otaa
ok
accepted

(i received the request on the gateway)

mac pause
4294967245

radio tx 1234
ok
radio_tx_ok

All looks good, but i cant receive data.

What is wrong in my transmission sequence with radio tx ?

When i try

mac resume
ok

mac tx uncnf 1 1234
ok
mac_tx_ok

i received data on the gateway.

When transmitting using ‘radio’ you are using plain LoRa, not LoRaWAN. ‘mac tx’ is a LoRaWAN transmission. Gateways receive LoRaWAN packets and ignore (when running a packet forwarder) LoRa transmissions.
