    @rmalbers Wait one second. I've been playing with the code and I have a suspicion about what's going on. I'm uploading a new version of the add-on, try that first.

            Very strange.

            I notice you press the pairing button immediately. You don't have to press the pairing button for it to scan for devices. But it shouldn't affect things either.

            The only device in your persistence file seems to be your gateway (which it does not turn into a thing, but maybe it should. But that's another matter.)

            Have you restarted your devices after starting the gateway? Otherwise they won't show up. Also make sure your devices send actual values when they boot or shortly after, otherwise those won't show up as properties.

            I think it's time to have a look at your Arduino code.

                  BTW: I know I have to rebuild my sensors, but at least now I have 'things' sort of working and can see better what's going on.

                      @alowhum I guess I should sum it up: I have V2.2 and V2.3 sensors running using the Ethernet GW addon config and using the MySensors original, not rebuilt gateway, so the MS gateway is running unchanged, yet does work with the addon and WebThings GW. (I do have to rebuild sensors again for the 'imperial' config setting. domoticz didn't care but it looks like the WebThings GW does use it. (I have mixtures of F degrees, C degrees, etc.)

                        I've updated the first post of the Gateway Addon thread to indicate that devices must be restarted to initially connect them.
