    great, now it is no longer working
    I am getting a series of messages like this

    OTA:FRQ:FW REQ,T=0001,V=0002,B=059A
    !TSF:MSG:SEND,16-16-0-0,s=255,c=4,t=2,pt=6,l=6,sg=0,ft=0,st=NACK:010002009A05

    OTA:FWP:RECV B=059B
    !OTA:FWP:WRONG FWB
    

    and a failed update at the end. I am going to need some help

    I ran the GW debug and I am seeing a buch of NACK even if the node is 2 meters away from the GW

      My FOTA updates take 3-4 minutes at normal speed. I think you are having some different communication issue.

        Is it possible to use this bootloader with arduino Mega boards (mega 2560)?
        What should be set in boards.txt then?

          @dakipro as a node or as gateway? Anyway I don't think it is supported

            as a node, I want to build one ambitious notification node with a bunch of functionality, Due to number of interrupts i would like to have (and total sensors as well) it would have to be a mega board.

            It would be physically located in other part of the house, so wireless programming would be awesome if possible :)

              May I ask why do you need that many interrupts?

                DualOptiboot: if you do your own board layout, always keep the CS signal of the external flash at pin D8. You can change the pin number in your sketch, but not for the bootloader It is hard coded in the bootloader!
                In this case the uploaded firmware is written to external flash by the sketch, but the bootloader can not read it and not write it to internal flash. Firmware will never get updated. Took me some time to find out...

                  @gohan never saw your reply sorry.
                  I am assuming I need more then two interrupts as I would like to have several buttons and sensors to the node. I am building a "information" node from an old lamp that will have a pir, lcd, temp, rgb led. Also a proximity and few others like microphone from the secret knock example, air quality, buzzer.
                  I guess I could get away with checking on sensor/buttons state on each cycle since it is not a battery powered sensor, but I assume I will need more memory anyway for all the libs.

                  (I know that perhaps the raspberry is better for this task, but... would like to push arduino and myself a bit more :) )

                    Since it's not a battery node, you can use pretty much anything you want. If you want to give it a shot, there is also a 3.3v pro mini with a Mega 2560 chip that should give you plenty of room and power for all the libraries you want.

                      Can I add a +1 for Mega2560 support in the MYSBootloader please?

                      I have 3 Mega based nodes (Irrigation and Pool Controllers). 2 of which are in spider infested, confined spaces in the garden. OTA would be a joy.

                        @gohan yes, but can it FOTA? :)
                        Never saw pro mini with mega chips btw (or didn't know the difference), do you have any links maybe?

                          No idea if it can FOTA, bot I don't think there is a dual optiboot for it

                            Thanks for the info, I've got it working on boards which arn't already soldered to radios, however just cant burn a new bootrom to a board with a RF69 soldered across pins miso mosi and sck. Is this normal ?

                              I guess the radio chip is interfering with the communication

                                @rfm69 does your rfm69 CS signal have a pullup? If not, you should add one, because pin can be floating (so it's bad practice to not have pullup on CS lines) and interfering during AVRSPI reprogramming

                                  @scalz Thanks for the suggestion. By CS do you mean the DI00 on rmf69 and pin2 INT0 on mini pro ?

                                  I get confused by these things, so need to confirm. :)

                                  What type of value pullup would you suggest. Again I'm new to this.

                                  Thanks

                                    CS/SS of the SPI bus, for enabling/disabling device spi comm. it's your rfm69 NSS pin if you prefer.
                                    I usually use 56k pullup resistor

                                        Hi there. For what I'm reading, the MYSBootloader allways uses the default channel 76. Is that correct? It would be a very important addition to this howto.

                                          @guillermo-schimmel not always, but by default. To change the channel, the bootloader must be recompiled. I have added a note to the howto. Could you check if the information is sufficiently clear?
