Received 'dnmsg' before 'router_config' - dropped

[VictorDenisenko]

I have issue "[S2E:WARN] Received 'dnmsg' before 'router_config' - dropped" in Basic Station. Chirp stack LNS receiving Join request from end device and answer it, but Basic station dropped it. End devices cannot connect.
Where and how can I look for the reason?
Are all regions included in the BasicSration source codes? For example, by contextual search in the source codes, I can find many lines for the regions EU863, US902, AS923, few lines for CN470 and not a single line for IN865 and RU864.
Thank you!
Victor

Hi Victor,

you are right. IN865 and RU864 are not supported. Unfortunately, specifying unsupported region identifiers leads to a situation where downlinks may be rejected. Please look at this issue and workaround provided there. This should enable you to schedule downlinks.

Hi Anton,
yes, your suggestion works. But it seems that extra changes are required in Basic Station source code, because it works with TTN, but doesn't with Chirpstack. Chirpstack doesn't send settings to Basic station. But end device for another region (I tried with KR920) works with Chirpstack and TTN. Below is my log file for RU864 and Basic Station with Chirpstack:

and RU864 to kwlist.txt file.
Can you advise, what else I need to change in the Basic Station source code?
Thank you!

According to your log it looks like the router_config message is not received by basics station. According to the LNS handshake procedure the version message must be responded to with a router_config message:

I also added code in s2e.c

case J_RU864: {

}

and RU864 to kwlist.txt file. Can you advise, what else I need to change in the Basic Station source code? Thank you!

Could you please tell me how your current debugging is going? I have encountered the same problem as you and I'm preparing to adapt to IN865 and RU864. I'm also planning to modify kwlist.txt and s2e.c. Is this method correct so far?
thanks！
