Using gateways and end-device

Hi,

I am trying to use a Dragino LPS8 to reroute a simple message from my computer. So basically, I am trying to send a simple LoRa package from my gateway, using it as an end-device, to another gateway, but I can’t seem to find a way on how to do it. Do you have any ideas if I can access the LoRa module through code?

Gateway’s are gateway’s, they aren’t devices, all they do is turn radio waves that are appropriately formatted in to a internet message sent to a LoRaWAN server. They can’t send messages. Nor can they receive messages. They just turn IP packets in to electromagnetic waves & vice-versa

Please read the material on the Learn link at the top right of this page.

Just to be clear, unless you have serious Ninja Embedded LoRa skills and for the LPS8, the ability to write code to run on OpenWRT that allows the SX1308 + 2 x 1257 LoRa transceiver to act as a standard LoRa radio, you’ll have your hands full. I doubt anyone has every tried.
