<p dir="auto">I currently have a couple of MySensors boards with Arduino Pro Mini + nRF24 radios communicating with a Raspberry Pi Gateway.</p>
<p dir="auto">Today, I wanted to add a new sensor to my network (moisture level sensor). I placed on my protoboard the Arduino Pro Mini, a DCDC boost, a connector for the 2xAA battery and the nRF24L01+, connected as described here:  <a href="https://www.mysensors.org/build/connect_radio" rel="nofollow ugc">https://www.mysensors.org/build/connect_radio</a></p>
<p dir="auto">When I power my sensor, messages seem to be transmitted to the gateway but the sensor seems stuck at the find parents state (from my understanding). As I already have running sensors, I assume the gateway is working fine.</p>
<p dir="auto">Here is the logs on the sensor side :</p>

<p dir="auto">Using <a href="https://www.mysensors.org/build/parser" rel="nofollow ugc">https://www.mysensors.org/build/parser</a>, it seems that the gateway received the find_parent request and send its response. The sensor however does not seem to get it.</p>
<p dir="auto">I tried adding a 4.7uF capacitor on the VCC / GND pins of the radio but nothing changed.</p>
<p dir="auto">Do you have any idea ?</p>

<p dir="auto">I fixed it by connecting the radio directly to the battery without using the DCDC boost I use for powering the Arduino Pro Mini.</p>
