LoRa Gateway with Basics Station TTN and balena

DISCLAIMER: This project is using The Things Network V2. Remember to get ready to migrate your hotspots to The Things Stack V3. Follow instructions here github.com/balenalabs/basicst...
Create a TTN LoRa Gateway with the newest Basics Station forward protocol managed with balena.
In this video we will setup the LoRa gateway with a RAK concentrator, the RAK2245 and a Raspberry Pi 4. It is also compatible with Raspberry Pi 3 and balenaFin and the LoRa concentrator RAK2287.
The LoRa gatteway will be connected to TTN (The Things Network) or TTI (The Things Industries). On the video we showcase how to do it with TTN.

[@radhwanbasher]

Sir. how can i buy this model, I am from Mosul north of Iraq and want to be the first lorawan gateway in the regine, and what the range max that this model can covered ? thanks

[@balenaio]

Hello Radhwan, you can buy this model on the RAK website or in a local RAK distributor (or similar). Let us know if you can deploy it.

[@plamenahristova6504]

Hello great video. Can i join to thingsix network with balena hub.? Regards

[@aarbogh]

Is it possible to use the older RAK833 model?

[@balenaio]

Hello @Harald still havent' tested this project with the 833 model. If you can test it, let us know :)

[@balenaio]

Hello Harald, now the new repo has been tested with RAK833 and it works. Let us know in the forums if it works for you.

[@jamesotisjr2322]

Is this a LoRa gateway, or a LoRaWAN gateway? I want radio out, not UDP >>IoT

[@MarcPous]

LoRaWAN gateway :)

[@jensbovbjerg9284]

Will this work with RAK2247 too?

[@balenaio]

Great question. I don't think our team has tested that yet. If you do so, please let us know. We'd like to know what your results will be.

[@MarcPous]

Yes Jens! It works with RAK2247 (SX1302) and soon it will be compatible with sx1303.

I don´t find the Gateway EUI...

[@balenaio]

Hello @Darkus332. The Gateway EUI is on the balenaCloud Tags. Let us know in the forums if it works for you.

[@vidadeingeniero3350]

@@balenaio yes! I found it and finally it worked. Thank you
