Starting LoRa Failed with MKR WAN 1300

Official Hardware MKR Family MKR WAN 1300
1

Hi,

I have two MKR WAN 1300 and I'm trying to communicate between them using LoRa. I'm using the sender code that is found in the Examples menu. The code is

#include <SPI.h>
#include <LoRa.h>

int counter = 0;

void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
while (!Serial);

Serial.println("LoRa Sender");

if (!LoRa.begin(915E6)) {
Serial.println("Starting LoRa failed!");
while (1);
}
}

void loop() {
Serial.print("Sending packet: ");
Serial.println(counter);

// send packet
LoRa.beginPacket();
LoRa.print("hello ");
LoRa.print(counter);
LoRa.endPacket();

counter++;

delay(5000);
}

I just got the message

LoRa Sender
Starting LoRa failed!

Any hint?
