### Matchbox gateway
11+
12+
The [MatchX Matchbox](https://matchx.io/hardware#matchboxs) is an OpenWRT / Lede
13+
base gateway, which by default sends its data to the MatchX hosted network-server
14+
(which is based on the LoRa Server software). By default it connects to the MatchX
15+
backend over a VPN connection.
16+
17+
To connect the gateway to your own environment:
18+
19+
* Power on the gateway and follow the MatchX provided manual to setup the
20+
wifi connection (in case needed).
21+
22+
* Create a MatchX account and register the gateway.
23+
24+
* On the page with the gateway details is a button **Global LoRa Config: [Edit Config]**.
25+
click on this button and scroll down to the bottom where you find the
26+
`server_address` setting. Change this to the IP or hostname on which
27+
your LoRa Gateway Bridge instance is listening for UDP packets.
28+
29+
**Note:** Running the LoRa Gateway Bridge on the gateway itself will probably
30+
not work without re-compiling the kernel with FPU emulation. This has not been
31+
tested. In order to get `root` access, you need to contact the MatchX support
32+
for getting the password.
