Hi!
I have 2 identical models of Mikrotik LR8 LoraWAN gateways at remote different locations. Both are pointing to my home server using ChirpStack, with NAT port tu UDB 1700 and so on.
After 1 year working properly, yesterday I lost data from both locations. I checked Chirpstack and it was UP and hadn’t been rebooted for months.
I also checked my home IPS router and it had been rebooted 18h ago, at 02:00:00 probabably due to some provider maintenance (I wasn’t awake at that time)
The router was again Up by itself and all NAT rules were ok, but chirpstack was still seeing both gateways as OFF
I had to call both places to have them manually reboot theis gateway in order to regain connection.
So for some reason, during the time my home router was rebooting, probably under 5 minutes, both gateway were retrying to reconnect and ended up giving up extremely early to the point I had to reboot them
Is there any setup in the configuration that prevents this early “surrender”? I would expect network shortages both at the gateway locations, at the chirpstack network, etc, so I can’t be rebooting the Mikrotik gateway anytime this happens
Thanks
