For example the height should be at least 5m for 300m distance and 868MHz frequency (LoRaWAN). Our LoRa solution uses 433MHz frequency so the height should be at least 7.2m. You can use this tools for calculation: https://www.everythingrf.com/rf-calculat...calculator
LoRaWAN can be a solution but you will need additional hardware - LoRaWAN gateway. You will also need LoRaWAN server software. It's possible to run it on LM but it's rather complicated to set up. There's a cloud solution - The Things Network, but I would not recommend using a cloud-only solutions.
Our LoRa hardware solution might work but it's not recommended for outdoor usage because the hardware does not have any protection from condensation.
I am moving first steps in LoraWan and IoT world, I already own a Lorawan gateway and a couple a single lora actuator and registered them on the things network, but I can't set on/off, just able to see live data coming from them... I feel a bit frustrated so I was looking for an easier solution
