Hi @Philipp_Luond

I believe it’s save to ignore the thingpark messages.
It can be that the devices misses a downlink message with mac commands.
Do you know if you are near a gateway?

When ADR is enabled the device will from time to time also check the ADR settings from the network.
The feature works fine when you see the spreadingfactor change when you move the device.

Best regards,
Jan

I thinks Swisscom uses the Platform from thingpark…

There are two receive slots, the server/gateway didn’t send in time to be able to get it in RC1.
Or signal was to weak for the sodaq one to pick up the signal.

The message looks to be received in RC2 fine. For me this looks like normal behavior and that we can ignore the thingpark error.
