There is a lot of buzz around LoRa, a wide-area network solution that promises kilometers of range with very low power consumption. It was already possible to build LoRa end-nodes using mbed with the Multitech mDot platform or the SX1276MB1xAS shield, but a LoRa network is a lot bigger than just an end-device. If you're not in the vicinity of an existing LoRa network you'll need to think about gateways and software for a network service. Where to get started?!
That's why today we are publishing a step-by-step guide on how to build your own LoRa network. From end-device to gateway to application. The guide can be found here: Building your own private LoRa network on mbed Docs.
