Gateway MikroTik

[jarhead-r]

Hello together
Can anyone help me how to customize the configuration so that the Mailbox Guard LoRe communicates directly via my MikroTik Gateway and not via the PricelessToolKit Gateway?

Hi,

1. MikroTik uses MQTT?.
2. Do you have an example of a MikroTik LoRa protocol?

[jarhead-r]

Good evening

Yes MikroTik LoRa Modem / Gateway can do MQTT, what exactly do you need with the protocol?

[PricelessToolkit]

It's a LoRaWAN gateway, and it is not compatible with MailBox sensor out of the box. If you are familiar with Arduino, you can modify this example code. I tested it, and at the very least, it compiles for the ATtiny1616: https://github.com/novag/SlimLoRa

I can't help you with anything else, I don't have any LoRaWAN gateway and there are no LoRaWAN networks in my city.

and one more thing, Your gateway works on 2.4GHz ??

Hello PricelessToolKit

But that basically means, if I have a little programming knowledge, that it would theoretically be possible to write a new firmware for the MailBoxGuard which then works on the LoRaWAN protocol with an AppEUI and DevEUI and an AppKey? Or am I seeing this completely wrong?

to your second question yes this is the channel plan for Switzerland

1. The Mailbox Sensor works on 868 MHz and 915 MHz, not 2.4 GHz. This is the first time I've seen LoRa on 2.4 GHz!.
2. On the LoRa module, the DIO0 port is not connected, so you need a library that does not use that port.
3. I never worked with LoRaWAN libs so I can't help.
