LoRa capability

Have you considered add LoRa capability so the boxes could form or participate in an ad hoc network? Maybe talk at a Meshtastic network (https://meshtastic.org/docs/getting-started)

Yes. WE have test hardware and are considering this verses 802.11ah. LoRa is a very slow protocol so we are concerned about the value add. the 802.11ah ;is a fast protocol. It has more value add.

I can see that. I think LoRa comes in when you want to network ConnectBoxes, maybe an integration with MeshTastic for emergency info or for info across a large campus.
