Intro

NurdSpace has a LorixOne LoRaWAN gateway. This page is about setting it up for TheThingsNetwork.

More info:

Logging in: go to http://lorix-one-0f3a24.local Username: admin, password: <SECRET>

The gateway forwards packets to TheThingsNetwork. Contact bertrik to become collaborator on TheThingsNetwork dashboard.

At the moment the gateway is fully configured, but off-line, stored in Melan's la.

Hardware

There's a sticker on the outside: FC:C2:3D:0F:3A:24 v1.0d This means it's the 256 MB flash version.

You can screw off the bottom, to reveal an ethernet port and an USB-B port. It gets power from the power-over-ethernet cable.

Software

Configuration

Network connection (easiest)

The thing does DHCP, and is reachable at

 lorix-one-0f3a24.local

e.g. http://lorix-one-0f3a24.local for the web interface

Serial connection (fallback)

Connect a USB A-to-B cable to the USB-B port. Open a serial terminal at 115200 bits to /tty/ACM0 (typically)

 screen /dev/ttyACM0 115200

Forwarder setup

The gateway was fully re-installed, by flashing an entirely new image. Configuration can be done through the web interface (no CLI required).
