Arduino+M5100 cannot connect to LAN

[mfalkvidd]

Did you read section #2:3 ?

[PZDPRO]

@mfalkvidd
Yes. I use this:

It shouldn't be wired wrong.

[mfalkvidd]

@PZDPRO I can’t see a nrf24 radio in that photo.

[mfalkvidd]

@PZDPRO said in Arduino+M5100 cannot connect to LAN:

#define MY_RADIO_RF24

Comment out this if you don't want to use a nrf24.

[PZDPRO]

@mfalkvidd Hi,
I tried this but still cannot connect to my LAN network. Router doesn't give me IP. I cannot see arduino in HA.
I tried many configurations. Even i put a new sketches from my sensors examples in arduino IDE (GatewayW5100 and GatewayW5100Client).

Maybe you someone have working sketch for tests?

Thank you in advance.

[mfalkvidd]

@PZDPRO all the examples in MySensors are known to work. We wouldn’t have them if they were broken.

What does the debug output say when you have removed the nrf24?

[PZDPRO]

@mfalkvidd
This is what i have:

I cant see arduino in my router internal website, but i made a ping wrom Command line and i have this:

Unfortunatelly i cant connect it in HA:

[mfalkvidd]

@PZDPRO I have never used HA but port 1883 in your configuration hints that HA is expecting a MQTT gateway. Your gateway is configured as an ethernet gateway. Therefore, the gateway does not support MQTT.

Either configure HA to use an MySensors ethernet gateway, or reconfigure your gateway to use MQTT. See https://www.mysensors.org/build/mqtt_gateway for instructions.

I think you'll need a MQTT broker as well. Instructions are available at https://www.mysensors.org/build/mqtt_gateway#setup-and-test-gateway

[PZDPRO]

Thank you @mfalkvidd
Do i need this radio module even if i use wire system in my home?

[mfalkvidd]

@PZDPRO you only need the nrf24 if you want to connect sensor nodes to your gateway. See https://www.mysensors.org/about/network for details on how MySensors works.

[PZDPRO]

@mfalkvidd OK.
I changed my sketch and finally i connect it to HA using integration but still dont have any device in HA.

@PZDPRO since I have never used HA, I don't know what devices in HA are, or how they work.

[virtualmkr]

@PZDPRO
Hi, have you checked in HA the file /config/mysensors/mysensors.json?
Can you provide the content here?

I have been using HA with MySensors for some time and it works for me, but sometimes HA behaves strangely for me too.
Maybe we can fix your problem here and maybe someone with more HA experience can join the discussion.

So far your second Arduino sketch should work with HA.

@virtualmkr Hello!
I checked and i think i dont have any file from mysensors.

I'm not good at programming and i only change ready skatches. Maybe you can be my guide how to start with this?
Main thing for me is to have arduino as a light controller. To analogs i have connected monostable switches and on digitals outputs a i had connected relays. In domoticz it works very well via USB.

[virtualmkr]

@PZDPRO
I use the File editor from Add-on Store:

Then I can see the MySensors nodes configuration:

[PZDPRO]

@virtualmkr
I cant connect to arduino again. I ping ip from my laptop and its ok.
Error in HA is "cannot make connection"

I installed file editor and i dont have such a folder and file.

[virtualmkr]

@PZDPRO It may be you use the automatic config file name. For me I have a second MySensors integration with the configuration file located directly in the config folder:

When your MyS gateway is reachable via ping then HA should be able to connect.
How is your HA hosted? Do you use the HA Raspi image?

[virtualmkr]

@PZDPRO
Additional I use the MYSController tool, very helpful for debug:
MYSBootloader 1.3 pre-release & MYSController 1.0.0beta

With this you can check if the problem is on HA side or with your gateway.

[virtualmkr]

@PZDPRO Also you should activate the logging for the MySensors integration.
See: https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/mysensors#debug-logging

The log will hopefully provide further insights..
