/challenges-projects/project14/remote-monitoring-control-devices/b/blog/posts/lora-experimental-environmental-sensors-loraxes---introductionI recently connected my Things Gateway to the Things Network and this Project14 challenge seemed like a good opportunity to do some experiments with the two MKR WAN 1300 boards that I received with the gateway.

I would be interested if you received revised boards or otherwise find a solution to lower the power requirements.&nbsp; Also interested in how well the gateway works. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Frank</p><img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=7450&AppID=237&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">
