 This tutorial explains how to connect your Portenta H7 to The Things Network (TTN) using the the Vision Shield's LoRa® Connectivity feature. A data communication channel will be enabled between the H7 and a TTN application that will be configured on your TTN console.
 
-***In order to connect your Portenta to the TTN make sure you are within the range (max. 10 Km) from an available LoRa® Gateway. Indoor gateways will have a much shorter range. It is recommended that you check LoRa® Gateway availability on [The Things Network map](https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/map) before you try this tutorial.***

 ## Connecting to the TTN
 
-The Portenta Vision Shield - LoRa® can be connected to the TTN and can transmit data to other devices connected to this network through a secure channel. This channel is nothing but an application on the TTN network dedicated for your board. In this tutorial, you will be guided through a step-by-step process of setting up your Portenta board and the Vision Shield - LoRa® to communicate with a TTN application. As stated before, to be able to follow this guide, to be under coverage of one of the TTN gateways. You can check for [the coverage](https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/map) now if you have not done so yet.

 ### 1. Setting up the Environment
 
-Start by going [here](https://console.cloud.thethings.network/). First choose your region. Next, sign in with your The Things Network account. If you don't have an account, create a new one on the login page. Then fill all the required fields to complete a new registration.

 ### 2. Creating an App on TTN
 
-Once you have created an account with TTN, you need to create a TTN [application](https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/docs/applications/). An application provides a way to aggregate data from different devices, and then use these data with other 3rd party integrations. After signing in, click on **Create an application**, or **Go to applications** if you already have one created.

-Before your Portenta H7 can start communicating with the TTN you need to [register](https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/docs/devices/registration.html) the board with an application.

 ## Troubleshooting
 
-The most common issue is that the device cannot connect to a TTN gateway. Again, it is a good idea to check if we have coverage in the area we are conducting this tutorial, by checking out [this map](https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/map).

-If we are within good range of a gateway, we should also try to move our device and antenna to a window, and even hold it out the window and move it around. This has proven successful on numerous accounts, as the signal can travel less obstructed.
