[SOLVED] ESP8266 WDT reset

[Kosika]

@afeno
I have not solved this problem. But I have put this project on ice the last 2 months, but I will soon continue by doing a complete reinstall of all libraries etc.

@afeno @Kosika please switch to the new 2.0.0 library, for your gateway, repeaters and sensors.
Esp support has been improved in there, and developer support will be faster.

Ok. I will switch to 2.0.0 and let you know.
Thank you.

Hello,
I switched to the new 2.0.0 and I still have the same problem:

What could be the reason for the reset?
Is it OK to power the NodeMCU from the microUSB?

Thank you!

[Yveaux]

@afeno what esp arduino core are you using? Try updating to the latest version.
I have an esp gateway running (2.0.0, fixed ip, mqtt client, powered through micro USB) without any issues. Power could be insufficiently stable though, so you could also try switching the power supply.

last arduino core version and different power supply.

Hi, I'm using the version 2.3.0. I tried with different power supplies and all the same.
I will try the mqtt client just to see if it is working.

Thanks.

[afeno]

@Yveaux ,
I tried with the esp mqtt client and I have similar issues. The node is reseting when receiving the radio signal.

This is the log:

I didn't give up (yet...) I tried today to power the NRF from an external power supply. Same result. The esp8266 is rebooting after receiving some data as shown above. My conclusion is that the problem is on the esp8266 itself or in the power supply that I am using.
My last try will be to power the esp8266 from something different than the microUSB.
Just in case, this is the setup. Maybe I'm missing something very basic:

Regaards,
Alfredo.

@afeno hard to tell from the picture, but it looks like CE is connected to D1, instead of D2.
Please refer to the connection diagram here: https://www.mysensors.org/build/esp8266_gateway

[afeno]

@Yveaux , did you know that you are awesome?
There is an error on Pin labels!!! The print on the pcb is wrong. You are right!
I have two D2 and of course that I used the wrong one

Thank you so much!!!!
