What tech are you using for the base station?

I'd love to put one in our hackerspace out here :) -- a few offices of people working on IoT would probably think that was pretty cool.

Killer -- where's your hackerspace?

LoRa basestation gateways are available off-the-shelf for from Kerlink, Multitech, and Link Labs. The gateways are actually quite simple, they just forward packets to the cloud network server, and back to the clients.

Hey, is there any chance for us putting something like this to the Taipei Hackerspace (Taiwan)? https://taipeihack.org

I've been checking LoRa for months to do some projects, but all got to some bottlenecks. (E.g. here are some notes on a USB-stick LoRa communicator plans: https://hackpad.com/LoRa-USB-Communication-Stick-xKGgChuwbzL )
