Hello,
I have been struggling with a IC-880a for a while now. I am using it in combination with raspbian-jessie-lite on rpi. I installed the USB version of the software conform
I changed /opt/ttn-gateway/lora_gateway/libloragw/library.cfg to:
CFG_SPI= ftdi
PLATFORM= lorank
DEBUG_AUX= 0
DEBUG_SPI= 0
DEBUG_REG= 0
DEBUG_HAL= 0
DEBUG_GPS= 0
I changed the different local_conf.json files with the right values for server settings and gateway_ID.
I repowered rpi, then repowered gateway, then connected USB. 1 green light is buring on the gateway now.
I did 'sudo /opt/ttn-gateway/lora_gateway/util_tx_test/util_tx_test -f 868 -r 1257'
and got:
INFO: concentrator started, packet can be sent
Sending -1 packets on 868000000 Hz (BW 125 kHz, SF 10, CR 1, 16 bytes payload, 8 symbols preamble) at 14 dBm, with 1000 ms between each
Sending packet number 1 ...OK
Sending packet number 2 ...OK
....
I did 'sudo /opt/ttn-gateway/bin/start.sh' and got one green light burning and output:
....

I registered the gateway at https://console.thethingsnetwork.org/gateways/eui-aa555a1573888704. I made sure to use the same gateway_ID. I kept the gateway (with antenna) on for a few hours. After that at my desktop on ttn.org it still says 'not connected'.
So my presumption is that my gateway is working. But why is it not recognized on my ttn desktop ?
Thanks for helping me on, Rick
