New gateway: The Things Indoor Gateway

I think so. Maybe they discovered that this gateway is mostly bought by hobbyists…

Don’t think that hobbyists buy at RS components.
Probably someone at RS waked up…

Hi Jeff, bizarre picture from RS today for me too, I ordered just one and yesterday the system showed the item as being shipped - no emails nothing, I called RS today and it seems they have had many people chasing this. They then seemed to reference a ‘list’ of those who are getting their order shipped this week, whilst on the phone she checked my order and said I was on the list and that I should get it next Monday.

I should say I was ready to cancel me order too, will update next Monday.

Things seem to be a mess at RS

Normally maybe not, but this gateway is sold only there and the price is appealing for private people… they are not used :slight_smile: .

RS must be reading this thread, just seconds ago I got an email 'Despatch Notification’

We will see…

News from my RS express order: No news.
Got just an automated standard “we received your order” email.
Got no delivery due date yet.

Website still says next business day. Stock decreased to 36, was 52 yesterday. Looks like TTIG sells pretty fast, would be great if it would be delivered as fast.

Delivery date for box of 100 is now 11.06.2019.

Maybe they had only 1 box of 100 on stock, and this week someone decided to break this up in single pcs…

…so could be good idea to order now, before the 100 pcs on stock ran out…

@Verkehrsrot @Jeff-UK thanks for all this feedback. Can you keep us posted here on if you received the package. Everything should be in good shape now.

New state: Got order confirmation. Says will be sent out today. Looks like they finally found or got stock.

Voraussichtliches Versanddatum 28.3.2019

Sounds like original Laird Sentrius problem of having to use (unreliable connections!) ‘shaver adapters’? They finally changed/added UK plug option - due soon :slight_smile: Now for TTI! :wink:

I assume this means Storrs/Dungworth/Damsflask Reservoir valley area will have additional coverage shortly! :slight_smile:
