Re: WiFi LR mode

I think you'll be very disappointed with the performance of LoRA unless you're trying to move a very small amount of data. Interoperating between 802.11b/g/n and LR doesn't seem practical (or desirable). Just setup two networks and bridge them in a different manner (or route between them).

Re: ESP32 as 'dump' wifi dongle over sdio

I'm interested in this also - specifically for the LR 802.11 mode available in the ESP32 - I'd like to use it as a long range WiFi radio on an embedded project. It says right on the front of the ESP32 product page - "ESP32 can perform as a complete standalone system or as a slave device to a host MC...
