Need help with Raspberry Pi Gateway

[GrantsPi]

I have 4 Nano/NRF24 sensor nodes with NODE-ID's defined in the sketches.
They work just fine with a W5100 MQTT Gateway, all nodes are recognized and messages passed to the MQTT broker. However when I instead use a Raspberry Pi, configured as a MQTT gateway, only one of the nodes seems to be recognized. What do I need to do to have all nodes recognized (two sensor nodes have the same 105 NODE_ID)?

Nack messages mean that it didn't get a response usually due to signal problems or insufficient power. How do you power the nrf24 on the rpi? What cap did you use on the radio?

[GrantsPi]

@gohan Thank you! The RPI is powered from the USB port on my ASUS router (I had powered it from a 2.5 amp USB source in the past with no change in result). However, I had been using the NRF24L01 with the antenna; I changed the radio to a NRF24L01+ and -- success! So it must be a power issue after all. I have used the antenna version on the sensors in the past with no problems. I haven't used capacitors yet, I'll try those soon. But for the moment, I'm back in operation.
Thank you!

[gohan]

If you are using the 3.3v from rpi gpio you would normally need a capacitor and when using the PA radio you would normally use the 5v plus a voltage regulator, since gpio pins usually can't provide enough current

[GrantsPi]

@gohan I missed the * in the wiring of the PA radio and wired it to the GPIO 3.3V pin; I had assumed that since the gateway was getting the one node solidly/all the time and the other nodes not at all, there must have been an issue other than power. I must say, the power issue is mentioned often enough on MySensors.org that I should have tried that solution a long time ago.
Thanks again.
