LoRa.ABP Downlink messages no receive
-
I have implemented a LoRa nanogateway with LoPy connected to TTN.
I have also another LoPy (Node) transmitting data via this gateway.Whenever I create a downlink message via TTN I can see it in nanogateway but the message is never arrived at LoPy Node.

@jcaron I know that you must perform an uplink in order to have a downlink.
The strange thing is that the nanogateway makes the LoRa TX but nothing is received.

You are aware that downlink messages are send only as a reply to an uplink? So you need to send an uplink to receive a previously queued downlink.
Also, it would probably help if you shared your code.
