<![CDATA[hlk-pm01 are to noisy for rfm69?]]>Hello . it's the 3rd node that i build with the combo arduino promini 3.3v + hlk-pm01 + rfm69 and all need wire ground to earth (on wallsocket) to let rfm69 comunicate.
otherwise will fail on every comunication even near Gateway...
Personally i only think in noise.but everyone say that hlk-pm01 are low noise.
I'm not using any cap after hlk-pm01 for snooth voltage but i already try it before without better result.
rfm69 is powered by the pro mini integrated regulator.
Any one had this problem?

The strange part is this combo was very used a few years now on made pcbs the on forum wher they had the maker/developer contest and never seen a line of this problem...

I'd surmise your problem is related to proximity of the psu or mains power.
eg - I have 3 un-shielded nodes with rfm69 variations running on 5v wall wart PSUs and battery backup and never had a single problem - The difference to your scenario is that the closest PSU and mains is 250mm away.
One has been running on an old Nokia "charger" and USB breakout now for 6 years straight between power cuts (and christ almighty we do get them) yet it is still going strong.

Perhaps reconsider your chosen method of supplying shore-power... ;)
