31 1.1 What is HP0D
32
33 The HP0D is an outdoor LoRaWAN Gateway. It lets you bridge LoRa wireless network to an IP network via WiFi, Ethernet, optional 3G or 4G. The LoRa wireless allows users to send  data and reach extremely long ranges at low data rates.
34
35 HP0D has passed Helium Full Hotspot Approval. It supports the **miner feature from Helium** and has a built-in ATECC608 encryption chip. It can be used as a Helium Full Hotspot  for the project. It also supports Semtech packet forwarder and LoRaWAN Station connection, it is fully compatible with LoRaWAN protocol. HP0D supports two LoRaWAN servers  at the same time, **users can use HP0D for helium mining and connects max 2 x LoRaWAN servers at the same time**.
36
37 **~ Dragino already paid HP0D $40 onboarding cost and $10 location cost for each HP0D**. It is ready to use for Helium, user only needs to input HNT wallet address and use QR  Code to onboarding HP0D when it arrives.
38
39 HP0D has pre-configured standard LoRaWAN frequency bands to use for different countries. Users can also customize the frequency bands to use in their own LoRaWAN network.

Xiaoling 15.1 107 2. Quick Start & Onboarding
Xiaoling 6.1 108
Xiaoling 15.1 109 The HP0D is configured as a Wi-Fi Access Point by factory default. You can access and configure the HPD after connecting to its Wi-Fi network, or via its WAN Ethernet port.

Xiaoling 6.1 140
Xiaoling 15.1 141 PC(Windows/Mac/Ubuntu) connect the same network with the HP0D, you can access the HP0D
Xiaoling 6.1 142
