If you just started setting up Chirpstack, you should really use V4 instead of V3.

V3 is no longer maintained and V4 has many improvements, especially in setup.

192.168.18.208 is the IP of the Linux server?
Have you open port UDP/1700 on the Linux server? Yes UDP.
Make very sure the bridge is up.

My LPS8 works fine with ChirpStack v3 and v4.

You should use v4 as we may already forget the configuration of v3.

Hello, we made sure this is the correct IP address of the server, bridge is active and running and our 1700 port is open. Our gateway still appears as Never Seen.

Hello, we just installed v4 and it worked perfectly. Thank you so much.
