Hi,
I'm trying to setup a LORA device with my KNOT LR8 and local hosted chirpstack server. My initial test with an earlier firmware worked, but since I've upgraded to 7.13.3 the KNOT do not forward received packets to my local chirpstack server or TTN. As I thought it's caused by a problem with the upgrade, I did factory reset the KNOT and did a new configuration.

The server is setup and pingable which also proof that IP can be resolved with DNS

In the Traffic tab I can see transmitted LORA packets, but they are _NOT_ forwarded to my chirpstack server or TTN - at least the gateway shows offline and I don't receive any packets.
To check if packets are sent out, I tried to run tcpdump on my chirpstack server and Packet Sniffer on KNOT filter for traffic on port 1700 (also tried IP). No packets were captured on either side, but when I tried ICMP (ping) with different filter I was able to validate tcpdum/packet sniffing.
In a forum post I found that time setting could cause a proble, but NTP is setup and and time is syncrhonized on my KNOT.
Is there anything more I can do for troubleshooting, or is there any known issue with current release code?
Thanks,
Robert
