Hello, I need a clear step by step guide on how to set up Pnucleo lrwan 3 end node and gateway and connect both to the loriot server. currently I have issues communicating with my END node using the AT command via terminal.
My other issue is that; the PNUCLEO lrwan 3 antenna is 480MHz, but when I check the paramaters of the device using terminal, I discover that the frequency is EU-868MHz, so now I have to reconfigure the device tp the right frequency, how do I do this. I have consulted the UM2587 material but it does not appear to be so clear to me.

Note that the P-NUCLEO-LRWAN3 is Not Recommended for New Designs (NRND), and has been for a long time now:

And the Gateway was never suitable for deployment.

Thank you for the clarification about the P-NUCLEO-LRWAN3 being NRND and the gateway not being suitable for deployment. I understand that this kit is not recommended for production use.

However, I am currently using this kit strictly for learning and laboratory testing of LoRaWAN, and I would really appreciate some guidance on how to correctly complete my setup. Does this mean I can not use the P-NUCLEO LRWAN3 ?

If you look in the linked thread, the Gateway is actually Obsolete.

The RF part was by RisingHF - I don't know if they have any support for it any more.

I think you'd be better off getting a separate Gateway - or, perhaps, check if you are already in-range of a public Gateway...
