hi ,first of all thank you for providing this code to successfully make the lora-gateway. when im using this my gateway working properly but only problem is not getting the range of lora-gateway. According to the explanation of hal library i properly configured all the things but after that this is not give the range as per my requirement,the max rang is only 500 to 600 m max. and the rssi=-119 max. im using rak831 gate-way and rak811 lora-node, and used the loraserver of loraserver.io. all working properly only the problem is range, and i also set the rf tx power to 20 in test_lora_hal.c file. please give me right direction and suggestion how to increase the range of lora-gatway. please give me the response fast as much as possible. im waiting for your response again thank you very much

There is no particular configuration to be done to extend the range, so if you have this kind of issue, it is rather related to your hardware or setup, than a software configuration.
