2.0 Discussion: Units, sensor types and protocol
-
There is a solution for multi-gateway that I'm working to port it to the development branch which could use the same radio channel and also to have sensors at gateway node.

Gateway become normal node, with an id(1-254), like a repeater. Address 0 become like a virtual address which is used when a node wants to send a message to the controller.
This solution will give more redundancy to the network but the same limitations apply, like the max of 254 per network. -
In the case raised by @lunarok, I'm not sure it will fit.

Each node will continue to have a unique id in the network.
The controller would have additional work to map nodes to their proper gateway, and this could make the whole idea into something impracticable depending on the controller software. -

@celonunes will you keep a limit 8 bit for ID?
currently with multi-gateway setup I have N * 255 address space, where N is a number of gateways

Yes.
Your solution seems interesting, do you have some published code of it? -
