I have this tracker working all okay with the Things Network.

To get the keys you require needs the SenseCap app on a mobile device (Android I use).

Install the SenseCraft app, tip, you don’t need to register for an account, there is a small “Skip” option in the top right hand side of the app sign in page, then it confirms you are entering the Device professional settings. Find the T1000-E in the list of supported products, and on the tracker itself, make sure it is on and press the button 3 times quickly. The green light flashes, you should see the device is picked up and now can connect to it, use Advanced Configuration.

Under settings you will have the Device EUI, App EUI (this is the Join EUI) and App Key all listed.

Other settings worth changing using the app. LoRaWAN ADR is enabled by default, this means when connecting to a local gateway it will see it has a strong signal and will optimize the transmissions based on that. This may work fine if you are tracking things that are never far from a gateway, but if you go further away the tracker may take some time before it realises it is no longer being heard and then turns up the power. So depending on your use case you may want to turn ADR off and set it to DR0 - DR0, this will give you the best range at the expense of battery life, but also means you can’t update very frequently either as you can use up all the allowed airtime easily.

There is a decoder for the Things Network available , see links at bottom of page here Get Started with LoRaWAN Tracker | Seeed Studio Wiki

The decoder is a bit basic, and it doesn’t expose a normalised output, so you will not see the location show up in the Things portal. I’ve tweaked it so that the location will show up, drop me a message if you want this.

Hope that helps.
