    @tekka Would it be possible in a future version to have the controller save the detected network nodes? Right know, I have to re-present the nodes in order for them to appear properly in the tree every time MYSController is restarted since it starts up with an empty tree.

      Hi @tekka , I've gone through the steps in your guide using MQTTGateway as gw sketch.
      When I start my new node (burned with mysbootloader) I only see the repeating message "FIND_PARENT" in MySensor Debug window and "RX 0;0;3;0;9;read: 0-0-255 s=255,c=3,t=7,pt=0,l=0,sg=0:" in the MYSController Debug window.
      The message appears every time the led is blinking on the node (approx every 2 seconds).

      Any idea why it doesn't request node id? Have also tried with AutoID without success.

      Thx!

      @rubal MYSController does not support MQTT gw. Please use a different controller or change to a serial/tcp gw.

        @tekka sweet! Any ETA on the next release?

        Do you feel secure today? No? Start requiring some signatures and feel better tomorrow ;)

                @tekka I feel really, really, REALLY stupid;

                I changed the channel in the mysensors config.h to 77, this was the reason no node would ever show up since the default mysbootloader uses the default channel 76.

                D'OH

                Thanks for your patience and help, everything is working now and I'm really happy!

                I think I am running into the same thing. How did you fix this? I have many nodes so switching back to 76 is not a good option for me.

                  You can edit myconfig.h and have te recompile after change.

                    @cdr I've never recompiled a bootloader before but when I did some searching it seems that I need the .c file to do this. Maybe I'm missing something and I can recompile the .hex? How did you end up doing it? Thanks!

                      I did some more testing and my issue definitely appears to be a result of changing the channel in MyConfig.h. I just built a serial gateway with channel 76 selected and everything worked perfectly. The only problem is I have over 20 nodes located throughout my house so re-uploading the code so they use that channel is not something I'd like to do if I can avoid it. Does anyone know how I can recompile the bootloader so I can change the channel?

                      I tried the files @siklosi posted here http://forum.mysensors.org/topic/2319/how-to-make-complie-mysbootloader/7 but it did not work.

                        in firmware_config.csv file what is the first column "type" for? And where do I get "type" codes?

                          @niccodemi type can be any numeric value used to identify a specific firmware type - this value (together with FW version and the FW CRC) is used to automatically update the nodes.

                              I recently switch to RFM69 and I know it's not yet compatible with MYSBootloader. But I can't find information about RFM69 and dualoptiboot support for OTA in MYSController (without a sensebender). Is it possible ? I have to make special config ? Thank !

                                @Fabien DualOptiboot is completely radio agnostic. You should not need any custom config to use OTA with DualOptiboot and rfm69. You do need an external flash on your board though.

                                  @Anticimex ok but in MYSController is there a way in the GUI for setting the bootloader (DualOptiboot or MYSBootloader) or is ti automatic. I ask this because you have to tell MYSBootloader your are running SenseBender (DualOptiboot).

                                      Thank you @tekka I don't test your new bootloader beacuse I think you don't have RFM69 version (perhaps in th future ?)

                                        @Fabien perhaps, will have to get some RFM69 hardware first...
