Hello! I followed instructions by SdeWeb on my Orange Pi Lite with Armbian, and gateway is working fine, I can see debug messages from other node. But when I try to add a serial port in node-red I can't find the gateway one. Can you help me?

FYI i configure like this:
./configure --spi-spidev-device=/dev/spidev0.0 --my-transport=nrf24 --my-rf24-ce-pin=2 --my-rf24-cs-pin=67 --my-gateway=serial --my-serial-is-pty --my-serial-pty=/dev/ttyUSB10 --my-serial-baudrate=115200 -
NOTE for Armbian and Orange Pi Zero.
Set static IP address or the device will lose connection on next DHCP request. I use only the LAN and was having problems for few days.

Hi,
You should set your gateway as a ethernet / network gateway. By default, it run on port 5003 (ex : [gwipadresse]:5003.
If you controler is hosted on the same machine that the gateway, then you can call the ip adresse : 127.0.0.1:5003. (the localhost adress) whatever the real IP adresse of your PI.
if you got a good router on u'r network, that it running DHCP server and give IP adresses of your devices on the network, then you can define static IP adresse for the MAC adresse of your PI.Regards.

I had to use spidev0.0 and not spidev1.0:

even "echo "24" > /sys/class/gpio/exportdoesn't work.

@pansen Thank you sooooooo much for your reply.!!! By the way, What I actually have to do is "Make an MQTT based LoRa(RA-02) receiver gateway on OrangePi Zero". And I'm stuck since whole week :'( of course spent time trying code without solid base. :/
Yes, yet I'm trying to first set up a LoRa receiver(not MQTT, not gateway) -
@pii --my-rfm95-cs-pin and --my-rfm95-irq-pin options are not currently supported by the configure script.
Until we fix this, could you please try adding the following to your examples_linux/mysgw.cpp (before the #include <MySensors.h>)#define MY_RFM95_CS_PIN 13 #define MY_RFM95_IRQ_PIN 10 #define MY_RFM95_FREQUENCY RFM95_915MHZand run the make command again.

There is an issue now with spi interfaces. With the current armbian image we are stuck at the prepare the system part, no /dev/spidev* available, the old method does not work. (There is no /boot/script.bin file, for example.) Does anyone know the solution, could this guide be updated, please?
