LG01-N Single Channel LoRa IoT Gateway

LG01-N is an open source single channel LoRa Gateway. It lets you bridge LoRa wireless network to an IP network via WiFi, Ethernet, Or 3G/4G cellular via optional LTE module. The
LoRa wireless allows users to send data and reach extremely long ranges at low data-rates. It provides ultra-long range spread spectrum communication and high interference immunity.

LG01-N has rich internet connection method  such as WiFi interface, Ethernet port and USB host port. These Interfaces provide flexible methods for users to connect their sensor networks to Internet.

LG01-N can supportLimited LoRaWAN protocol in single frequency and customized LoRa transmit protocol. Different from LG01-P/LG01-S, LG01-N use the Linux to directly control the sx1276/sx1278 LoRa module which increase the communication efficiency and simplify the software design. 

LG01-N can be used to provide a low cost IoT wireless solution to support 50~300 sensor nodes.

Except LoRaWAN mode, LG01-N can support mutiply working mode  such as: MQTT mode, TCP/IP Client  mode to fit different requirement for IoT connection. 

LG01-N base on sx1276 solution which provide a low cost for your IoT network connection. Compare to the cost with normal SX1301 LoRaWAN solution. the LG01-N is only of its 1/4 or less cost. This make the LG01-N very suitable to set up small scale LoRa network.

*Limitation of LoRaWAN support please refer section 3.6.2 of this link.

For Private LoRa Protocol, Not recommend for LoRaWAN use.
