Argon LoRaWAN and RFM95W Feather Wing

[fvfrenzy]

Has anyone had success setting up an Argon with the RFM95W LoRa feather wing? If not that specific wing, any success connecting an Argon to a LoRaWAN network?

I have a library to use the LoRa feather wing as a point-to-point link.

How to make LoRa RF95 work on XENON

There is a new library, RF9X-RK. This is a port of the RadioHead Packet Radio Library version 1.89 for RF95/96/97/98 LoRa compatible radios. It should work with these Adafruit radios: RFM95W 868 or 915 MHz Americas ITU 2 license-free ISM RFM98 433 MHz for use in Europe ITU 1 license-free ISM While I used the FeatherWing version, it should also work with just the breakout. If you are using the Adafruit Radio FeatherWing you should just follow the Adafruit instructions. The radio communic…

It does not support LoRaWAN and it's not possible to use the link as the cloud connection. But it's the first step in doing any of those things. The post references the Xenon but it works on the Argon as well.

Thank you for the reply and information. Do you happen to know if the Adafruit wing is compatible with LoRaWAN? I was thinking the RFM95W was compatible but struggling to find a definite.

I’m still waiting on my wings to arrive, so I haven’t been able to play yet. And I am brand new to LoRa.

I am hoping to use this in a multipoint scenario, rather than PTP.

@fvfrenzy
see LoRaWan Functionality but note that I later switched to the MCCI LMIC Lorawan library

Is the GPS wing required?

No, not at all
