LoRaWAN support

Is any plan to support LoRaWAN cards or protocol ?

Also looking for info on this.

those use routeros,
https://lorrier.com/

aliexpress listing about RAK833… they say their board is supported in the “CCR1009” | “hAP ac lite”,

The LoRaWAN part is implemented with BeagleBones using the SPI bus.

They use ROS only for the networking part, behind the BeagleBones.

The gateway is based on iC880a LoRaWAN™ concentrator by IMST which uses Semtech SX1301 base band processor designed for use with LoRa® networks. BeagleBone Green with 1GHz (2000 MIPS) processor and fully operational on fast SPI bus was chosen as a powerful control unit.



Mikrotik Routerboard providing the advanced settings of the communication functions on Ethernet serves as a communication gate with the Internet on TCP/IP.

As of this time, AFAIK, ROS does not support LoRaWAN natively.

I’m starting to think that with this LoRa friendly product and the LTE stuff MT has, MT products might be well suited to support iot sensor systems and communicate their info back to clouds for a very reasonable price point.
Am I off base here???
Looking for any guidance ideas!!

so where is more info about the pic…

MikroTik announced a new product in Vienna a few weeks ago. It will be a wAP 2GHz outdoor AP with Lorawan card inside. You will be able to forward all sensor readings to any external Lora portal, like Thethingsnetwork, Loriot etc.

wAPR-2nD&R11e-LoRa8 - LoRa gateway for ISM 863-870MHz bands with full RoS support. WAP product with LoRa gateway. Integrated 3dBi antenna for LoRa and 2dBi for 2.4GHz WiFi AP. Higher gain external antenna could be connected through SMA pigtail (should be purchased separately). 8 uplink channels. Supported regions EU863-870, IN865-867, RU864-870, KZ865-868, custom channel selection. UDP packet forwarder to any public (TheThingsNetwork, Loriot.io, etc.) or private network server. Very affordable pricing.

R11e-LoRa8 - LoRa mPCIe Gateway module. Can be integrated in any RouterBOARD product with mPCIe slot that has USB support. For example LTAP mini, M11, M33 and others. Requires LoRa package installation.

to me, the M33 and LTAP (not mini) integration makes the most sense, because i can add LTE uplink (but might be that 2G is more than enough :slight_smile:
will there be also a decent omni antenna for LoRa? pretty please! this really matters. the most of the things you can buy from the “regular” places [aliex, banggod, etc] are simply just crap, the resonant frequency is way off. for serious long range usage the proper antenna is a must.

and i love one stop shopping.

Is there a 900 MHz LoRA option expected for North America and other 900MHz ISM countries?

You really really really need to come out with a 915/928mhz version as well. For America Australia and many others. Are there plans to do this? Assuming that there is just a mpci slot inside, even the option to buy it bare and then add in our own 915 Rak card.

A low cost Lora gateway will really take off especially now if people can afford to buy multiple units.

I love the annoucment of this product :slight_smile:

Any news about the release date ?

any news about the relaese date?

Another vote for 915/928mhz version or at least support 3rd party USB based mPCIe cards that are 915/928mhz.
