Considering I have no experience with some of these LoRa data modules, what is this resulting in terms of modulation type, data rate and over what kind of distance?

Ah darn, of course!
Thanks.

Regarding the lora configuration: a friend of mine gave me the
configuration-parameters for best reliability for a long distance:

const RH_RF95::ModemConfig cfg = {
                 // Register 0x1D:
                 // BW         CR      0=explicit
                 (8 << 4) | (4 << 1) | (0 << 0),
                 // Register 0x1E:
                 // SF       CRC enable
                 (10 << 4) | (1 << 2),
                 // Register 0x26:
                 // bit3 = LowDataRateOptimization
                 (0 << 3)
         };
                 rf95.setModemRegisters(&cfg);
                 rf95.setFrequency(869.850);
                 rf95.setPreambleLength(8);

Packet loss is 12-15%.

This is because you have your window setting per the /etc/ax25/axports file
set to 1.   Change it to say 4 and things should work better.

Btw.. what speed are you running your LoRa network at?  A round trip time of
1.6 seconds is quite slow but maybe that's due to the serialization delays
of running your network at say 300bps!

An other strange thing: I can't have 2 packets in that 2 second
interval. E.g. a traceroute only works if I add -N 1 -w 2.

Hi,

This evening I succeeded in doing ICMP over AX.25 over LoRa(!)!
