      Iam using Pimatic, but only for displaying Sensor values. I set my node ID's manually...

        @mfalkvidd Here is my Serial Output:

        And nothing more happens...
        I tried to give out some serial prints in "void presentation" section, but they did not appear...

        Strange...

        For what is the MY_CONTROLLER_IP_ADRESS ? The IP i inserted here is the IP from my other/main "Mysensors-Gateway..."

          @HarrySteff a controller and a gateway are different things. See https://www.mysensors.org/about/network#the-controller for information on what a controller is.

          Try removing that define as per gohan's recommendation.

            Okay i understood this, but how does my ESP8266 node (only wifi) knows where the gateway is`?
            I think i must tell it somwhere?
            I will try to remove defined
            MY_CONTROLLER_IP_ADRESS & MY_USE_UDP

            posting serial output here...

              it doesn't, if you use a esp8266 as a node without nrf24/rmf69 radio it needs to be a gateway on its own

                  On the controller, did you add the 192.168.0.137 as a mysensors gateway?

                    No, until now i did not, but do i need a controller at all?
                    (In my opinion it should present values even i do not have a controller)
                    So now i even disabled the define of the controller IP in my sketch...

                      The esp8266 is a complete stand alone mysensors network, it can't interact with the other unless you use a controller in between
