MTCDT
A LoRa to Ethernet gateway with integrated mosquito server

FCC report for LoRa module (inserts into AP2) https://fccid.io/AU792U13A16859
Modified this particular unit, removed non-standard screw on power supply connection with molex connector. This is unit uses a ST L7986A power regulator chip with a rated design input of 9-36v for this system.
The case is screwed together with assumeably Torx 10 screws, a ground down modified flat head was used instead.
These units have an ethernet port that can be used to bridge/connect directly to the internet. There is also a host USB port which can be connected to an Android phone with USB tethering enabled, this creates a configurable network interface that can then use the phones wifi connections or cellular data.
