Frequently Asked Questions

How do I power the gateway safely?

The gateway should be powered using a12V DC power supplyor throughPoE (Power over Ethernet, 802.3af). Do not use solar chargers directly.They can supply unstable voltages and may damage the device.

Can I use this gateway in off-grid or remote environments?

Yes. The gateway is compatible with the Battery Plus, making it suitable for solar-powered or off-grid setups.

How do I manage the gateway remotely?

You can manage it using WisDM, RAKs cloud-based device management platform. It allows you to monitor, configure, and update your gateways remotely. Create a WisDM account, add your gateway by serial number, and start managing devices across your network. Ensure your gateway has internet access for cloud syncing.

Does the gateway support firmware updates over the air (FUOTA)?

Yes. WisGateOS 2 combined with WisDM enablesremote firmware updates,configuration changes, and device monitoring.
