Forum Post: RE: 6LoWPAN network without edge router

Hi, Jonas,

As you mentioned, the data exchange between two nodes has to go through the Edge Router, how did you test the communication distance of 800m between two CC430 nodes?  Does that mean there is a Edge Router between the CC430 nodes?

If we buy a CC-6LOWPAN-DK-868 Kit, can we use the software on some boards other than OMAP-L138 based Edge-Router, such as OMAP3503 based board?

And if we want two Edge Routers communicate each other by using 868MHz frequency, could we use CC1180EM in the CC-6LOWPAN-DK-868 Kit or we have to use other hardware? 

Thank you!
