coap server connection to border router

[robtic]

Hi,

I am trying to utilise the available thread examples to build comms from CoAP server to external website through Border Router. 

I have configured Border Router as per the docs and I can issue ping commands from CLI example through border router.

As the next step, I have loaded the CoAP Server example and expected the `ot ping` command to work as the CLI example, but for some reason I am getting 100% packet loss.

I can see that the Border Router has node type of "router" and CoAP server is "leader".

PANID, XPANID, Channel are the same between both devices.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

So this issue is fixed, however, it is still not clear why ot joiner start <pskc> is giving me an InvalidArgs error.

I guess your passkey is too short. Try to use a longer one.
If you continue to face problems with the joiner, create a new ticket on DevZone explaining your problem, and we will help.

Good luck onwards,
