I don't know what to make of this... a new product from Semtech (which
owns the core LoRaWAN patent) that uses 2.4GHz spectrum... and
advertises a "sensitivity, down to -132 dBm". The last of the links
below says:  "The new 2.4 GHz wireless RF solution enables
point-to-point wireless links that can support custom protocols with
configurable data rates up to 2 Mbps". By contrast, my understanding
is that their LoRaWAN products max out at something like 20 kbps.
