This is user manual for lora indoor gateway GW-01-WI-FI, lora outdoor gateway GW-01-POE and NetSoM development board that can be transformed to lorawan gateway using lora raspberry pi shield GW-01-RPI.

1. Power up lora indoor gateway.
First step is pretty simple. Here GW-01-WI-FI will be used as example. Just plug in USB power supply cable to device.
2. Connect to Wi-Fi AP.
Open you mobile phone or tablet Wi-Fi settings and wait for 30-60 seconds until OpenWrt network appears in the list of available devices than click on it. It will take IP via DHCP and become available at 192.168.1.1.

3. Configure connection to lorawan server.
