kasi1337:

by using the ChirpStack packet multiplexer, it’s possible to serve multiple LoRaWAN networks in parallel,

You are not the first to figure this out and the technical potential…….the problem is it doesn’t solve the practical implementation and legal aspects of doing so!

Each Network LNS will be ignorant of what the other network is doing specifically wrt downlinks (Acks, ADR commands, joint accepts, and so on) and there are then two issues - the downlinks may clash potentially voiding efforts and more particularly as a Tx device the gw has its own duty cycle limits to consider in many parts of the world and especially in busy areas the summed commands of two or more networks may cause the gw to breach the legal limits in that jurisdiction .

If you wish to try on your own private networks that’s at your risk, however, please do not attempt this on TTN as you may cause issues for other users….especially the owners of community gw’s.
