it is possible to test MQTT without NB-IoT/LTE CAT M1 Network ?(means using some external hardware)

Hi all            

                      We are using nRF9160 DK & want to test its MQTT library by uploading some data to the broker.
         But, my city doesn't have LTE Cat-M1 / NB-IoT network.

                      Can you suggest us some setup (external hardwares / modules), by which, we can test nRF9160's

         MQTT library, without the said network?

Hi Jay,

You could set up the nrf9160 to connect to something similar as a "CMW500 Wideband Radio Communication Tester" or you could set up the nrf9160DK with a computer where you have a connection with a network and then connect to the computer remotely.

Hi,

Thanks for your solutions.

Some how, we don't have "CMW500 Wide-band Radio Communication Tester". So we can't follow that approach.

Regarding your second solution, to connect the DK with a computer with network connection, will you please elaborate ?
I think this will be like Internet sharing via USB. Isn't it ?
It will be great of you, if you can guide me to configure this setup.
Awaiting you response.

Thanks & Regards,
Jaydip
