Missing Gateway Bridge in ChripstackOS

I am very new to all this so I have gone through the documentation over and over and have combs through a ton of forum posts but it’s been 4 days now and I’m still at a loss.

Thought I would post in here and see if anyone has some insight for a Newbie - I can’t seem to figure out how to setup the Chirpstack Gateway Bridge

HW:Rpi 3B | Waveshare SX1302 Hat w/ SX1303 Module running ChripstackOS

Model** Raspberry Pi 3 Model B Rev 1.2
Architecture** ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l)
Target Platform** bcm27xx/bcm2709
Firmware Version** ChirpStack Gateway OS 4.3.2 Full / LuCI openwrt-23.05 branch git-23.355.78874-80140aa
Kernel Version** 5.15.137

Says my Gateway is Online but when I get to the Chripstack-Gateway-Bridge Step, I can’t seem to find it in the CLI to even add/edit a config file

Does in need to be installed like the Raspberry Pi instructions say? If so,how? I get -ash: apt: not found

The ChirpStack MQTT Forwarder replaces the ChirpStack Gateway Bridge for on-gateway installations :slight_smile: The ChirpStack Gateway OS therefore does have the ChirpStack Gateway Bridge pre-installed.

Thank you for getting back to me, I probably should have come close this… As I’m learning more - I don’t think I need a Bridge just yet.
