How to connect nRF9160 to AWS IOT?

[Haifan]

I am a beginning at this.  Does anyone have step by step instruction/tutorial on how to connect nRF9160 to AWS IOT?

Thanks.

Hello Haifan,

flash modern firmware

Start with MQTT simple and give your ip address, subscribe, publish topic and client id in project.conf file.

Build and flash your dk.

HI Haifan, 

I am afraid that we do not have any official tutorial on setting up the nRF9160 with another AWS endpoint than the nRF Cloud. 

There are several other DevZone users that have done this, please see the links below.

When we try to build simple MQTT, we get error on line 402 (return net_addr_ntop(family, src, dst, size).  The error is "undefined reference to 'net_addr-ntop"
