A higher RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) indicates a better signal, where -30dB is the best
possible, and -130 dB the worst: no signal it all. Everything below -75 dB is considered a bad
connection and has a high risk of packet loss. The SNR is the Signal to Noise Ratio. This ranges from
positive plus 10 to negative -20. Anything above 6 and below -10 is good.
If you have a bad connection try to place the antenna in a higher position or closer to the gateway.
Typical range of LoRaWAN is around 2km in an urban area and up to 15km in rural areas with a good
gateway.
Step 6: Verify completeness of data on VRM The LoRaWAN network needs to receive three messages
before making all the device data available on the VRM Portal. As the LoRaWAN network is a lossy
network it is possible that not all of those messages are received the first time. These messages are
only sent once every 24 hours by the VE.Direct LoRAWAN device. To solve without waiting 24 hours,
power cycle the module and try again.
