Any chance the latency on the internet connection is high, and the downlink packets arrive at your gateway too late? (Using a serial port monitor, I got one [LORA: TXPKT failed, too late!](https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/forum/t/getting-lora-txpkt-failed-too-late-in-ttn-gateways-serial-output/18206) today, but that’s often caused by problems in the backend, not in my connection.) Is the gateway registered to the router closest to you? (So, `ttn-router-eu` for France.)

Meanwhile your gateway [has forwarded](http://noc.thethingsnetwork.org:8085/api/v2/gateways/gateway-watteco1) ~~112,350~~  ~~112,439~~  ~~112,455~~ 112,475 uplinks, though those might not all have been sent by your own node. Still then, if TTN tells a gateway to send a downlink, it should indeed do so.
