romarabbasi:

sir i am not worried about forwading messages to ttn . my concern is how to establish between two gateways …so one receive data from nodes and then send it to other gateway over lora protocol instead of cellular, wifi or ethernet connectivity… from second gateway i will have internet connectivity .

Without even considering the techincal aspects just assume that you are not the first person in the World to want to do this and it does come up on the forum fairly often.

Therefore why do you think that no-one on the forum can offer a solution ?

If there was a solution you might expect someone on the TTN forum to know about it, or alternativly you could find it via a Google search.

To address the specific comment about using UHF LoRa as some form of relay then a Gateway somehow using that to talk to another Gateway would very quickly exceed legal duty cycle limits.

Its possible that 2.4Ghz LoRa might just be fast enough to act as a radio bridge for a handful of km. Whilst the 2.4Ghz bands dont normally have duty cycle limits, its a heavily used band, so using it for a reliable radio bridge would be a challenge, even if it were possible to re-invent the established TTN\LoRaWAN gateway code.
