Wireless nRF24L01+ sniffer for MySensors
-
It would be a noce idea to create a portable 'sniffer' which you could easily position around the house (compared to a laptop + sniffer).
If it could do charts like Wireshark, e.g.
it would be very easy to determine signal quality and the like!
Requires dissection on the sinffer, though.http://yveaux.blogspot.nl

So, remember that pcb I showed earlier.
This is what it looks like with a 3D printed green glow in the dark case around it :)

A portable version of the nRF24L01+ sniffer could be extremely useful. Anyone know if it would be possible to combining a nRF24L01+ and an ESP8266 into an Arduino giving it the capability to transmit the nRF24L01+ data over WIFI to a computer running wireshark? I dont have the time to research the possibility right now, but will keep this in mind for the future.

Hello,
Great job !!! I am French so excuse my broken English. Does someone could guide me? At launch Wireshark, I have a message systematically "tvb_lenght The procedure entry point is not found in the dynamic link library C: \ Program Files (x86) \ Wireshark \ plugins \ 1.12.4 \ mysensors1.dll" then same for mysensors2, nrf24.dll, radiohead.dll. I'm sure I added DLL in Wireshark, and tried the 64b version and the 32b, under Windows 8.1. If someone has an idea, THANK YOU :) -

@gonzalonal I reproduced compiling the latest version on Github with Arduino IDE 1.6.5.
It compiles without problems on my IDE, on Windows.
Some things you can try:- Reinstall the Arduino IDE and/or make sure you're using 1.6.5
- Extract the NRF24 Sniffer source code to its own sketchbook location. Don't put any other stuff in there (e.g. no MySensors libraries). Point the Arduino IDE to this location (File -> Preferences -> Sketchbook location, save and restart the IDE)
Good luck!

Thanks Yveaux. Pointing the sketch path in the right direction made the trick.
Once again, thanks.Regards.

Hi there,
The (my:blush: ) sniffer tool has trouble interpretating float values, received from temperature/humidity sensors.
The data payload indicates that the sniffer receives 5 bytes instead of the expected 4 bytes of the float32 variable, the extra byte is always a 0x01. The preceeding 4 bytes are the expected bytes of the float.
After swapping the hardware, both cpu and nrf24 , still the same result....
Integers and booleans are received OK, and my serial gateway receives the correct float values. -

@Yveaux
Hi, thanks for the quick response....
But I do not understand: I get float values on my screen but the wrong interpretation.
Perhaps a better question: is there an indication when this will be solved, as I appreciate the sniffer tool very much!? -

Maybe I should rephrase: it was implemented, but doesn't work right ;-)
See: https://github.com/Yveaux/NRF24_Sniffer/issues/2For MySensors 2.0 the sniffer will have to be updated.
I might pick this one up along the way. -

@Yveaux said in Wireless nRF24L01+ sniffer for MySensors:
For MySensors 2.0 the sniffer will have to be updated.
Any chance for Mysensrs 2.1.1 support? -
@bilbolodz not from my side anywhere soon... Just too busy...

Wireshark is version 3, MySensors 2.3.1 released 2018. nrf24 protocol with old dll is not working. Cost me hours tot find out it is "Oude Meuk", and not working with Wireshark error message "dissector not found". Please @Hek and @Yveaux release working version or wipe it from the forum at many places, PLEASE!
