Not connecting to nRFCloud

Hi, we have an nRF9160DK (0.8.3) and it does not connect to the nrfcloud.

We have updated to the latest firmware 1.0.0

We only have nb-iot here so we  didn't use the iBasis sim, instead using a vodafone V-Sim (which is active). 

Are we missing a step here?

Thanks

  • You would need to create an EC2 Instance and then edit the options to request an elastic IP for that instance. Information on how to set-up EC2 Instances and elastic IPs should be in the AWS documentation. Note this all does require a paid AWS account, EC2 Instances all have different costs attached, this wasn't an issue for us as we use EC2 on applications.

    You then need to create a UDP server, or whatever protocol server you plan to use and install it into the EC2 Instance's Linux machine.

    Yes, you will need to get an Elastic IP and then request with Vodafone to change to that one. It will take like a week for them to make that change. Please note that the elastic IP is defined by AWS and not you so get the IP from AWS first.
