        If you run the following what does it return?

        import os
        print(os.uname())

          (sysname='LoPy', nodename='LoPy', release='1.17.0.b1', version='v1.8.6-849-d0dc708 on 2018-02-27', machine='LoPy with ESP32', lorawan='1.0.2')

          Are the Lopy very limited with memory? Is the Lopy4 a hardware memory upgrade?

            This shows that you are on the latest release='1.17.0.b1, The LoPy4 is an upgrade of the lopy in the following ways:

            • LoPy4 can also connect to Sigfox
            • LoPy4 can do LoRa on 433MHz
            • LoPy4 does not have the deep sleep issue as the LoPy does
            • LoPy4 has 8MB of flash (vs 4MB)
            • LoPy4 has 4MB+520KB of RAM (vs 520KB)

              I have tried the firmware update on Windows 10 and windows 7 and the update stays stuck on "Please wait. Reading information about the board ..."
              Last week Xylon sent a *.tar.gz file which I was able to update the firmware using the CLI tool.
              Could you please provide the same. Thanks.
