• To connect this gateway to the The Things Network console, register the gateway using
the I’m using the Legacy Packet Forwarder option.
• The EUI of the gateway is NOT the WiFi MAC address printed on the back of the gateway
but is derived from the first number on the top of the sticker below the QR code.
• This number can also be obtained from the WiFi Setup Page
• To derive this take the code for example
5BA0CB80042B
and insert
FFFE
to after the first
6 characters to make it a 64bit EUI such as
5BA0CBFFFE80042B
• This is the value to be entered in the Gateway ID field on the console.
• Enter in other details such as location, frequency plan and router.
• If your configuration was successful, you should start receiving packets (if there are
LoRaWAN nodes transmitting nearby).
