Water company don't mention that sort, just the cellular sort. However, I'd expect LoRaWAN would have issues here too, it being rural and hilly.
Not heard back from them yet... doubt I will. Plenty of other things to deal with so chasing them hasn't been a priority.0 -
You can do that, I give readings to my supplier and the bill is generated from it.
