Since Lobaro devices include a variety of different technologies for sending data, the "WAN" parameter is one of the most important to control the behaviour of the device. This parameter can be used to set whether NB-IoT, LTE-M or LoraWAN is to be used for data transmission. With LoRaWAN, the type of network join can also be defined (ABP vs. OTAA). Some devices even extend the possible values of the parameter, e.g. for an upload via LAN. In this case, details can be found in the device-specific documentation.

Older Firmware versions
With some older firmware versions, only "lte" or "lorawan" could be configured via the above-mentioned WAN parameter! In these older versions, additional parameters were used to configure the unit behaviour more precisely.
| Name | Description | Default Value | Value Description & Examples |
|---|---|---|---|
OTTA | LoRaWAN Activation: OTAA or ABP | true | true= use OTAA, false= use ABP |
UseNbiot | Try to connect with NB-IoT | true | |
UseLtem | Try to fallback to LTE-M when supported by the Modem | false | not supported with all Hardware revisions |
These parameters are no longer available on units with newer firmware versions!
