    Hi!

    although my apartment is not that big, I need at least 2 repeater nodes to cover every room. However, when I use the repeater nodes, everything is delayed 1-2 seconds.

    For example: I have multiple motion detectors - the ones which are connected to the gateway over a repeater take 1-2 seconds longer until their "triggered"-message reaches the gateway.

    Is this normal?
    How can I reduce this delay?

    I'm using Arduino Pro Minis (5V) for my repeaters. Nothing else runs on them.

        1-2 seconds sounds really long. You would have to look at the logs to determine where the delay is introduced. Delays is often the result of a slow controller.
