    Yes I did test my Nano with the blink upload and worked fine. I uploaded all the files to Vera with no problem and also uploaded the sketch into my Nano successfully.

    I can even see my Gateway communicating with one of my sensors in the debugger, So I think everything is fine.
    The only problem is when I connect my Gateway to my Vera and go to Serial Port Configuration, there is nothing there. I tried reloding the Luup Engine several times and restarting my Vera, but still no luck.

    Thanks

    @rafael.brasilia Sorry, I don't know what is wrong. I got problems myself: I can see my Gateway in the Vera... but cannot get it to communicate with the sensors - I am also new to this. Hopefully one of the experienced guys on this site can help you!

      PROBLEM SOLVED

      So after trying a thousand different things I decided to bite the bulled and bought a Genuine Gravitec Arduino Nano, loaded the Serial Gateway Sketch into it and BOOM! Worked on the first try. My Vera recognized it as soon as I plugged it in.

      For all you guys having problems with Serial Gateway I recommend buying a Gravitec Nano to use as a Gateway. The clones work just fine for the sensors, but not for the Gateway.

      This is the one I bought:

        Holly cow 35 bucks... Well at least you are up and running. It's strange really, because I had no problems with the Nano from the store vendor.

            Yeah it was really expensive. But I had tried with 3 different types of clones and none of them worked. You were lucky!

                I had this problem today ( "Lua Startup Failure" / MySensors plugin:Choose Serial Port) after running the serial gateway for a few weeks with no problems.

                I checked the "Serial Port Configuration" under Apps>Develop Apps and the baud was mysteriously set at 9600. I reset it to 115200 and reloaded Vera and everything reset fine. Is there any known reason why the baud setting would change on its own? Conflict with another plugin, perhaps datamine)?

                  @rafael.brasilia: Did you try powering the clones using an external power supply connected to Vin.

                  That solved some problems I had getting an Ethernet gateway up-and-running.

                    Check your Nano, if you have the one with CH340 usb chipset will not work for serial gateway. It will work if you use it for a node. Need to get another nano with FTDI chipset for serial gateway and it will work. I have the same problem and even try many different ways still won't work until I figure it out from the other post. You don't need to buy the one for $35 bucks, search on Ali.... you still find some sellers sell Nano with FTDI chipset for @ $7 bucks. Hope it help and save your time.

                      I'll admit a newbie at this. but I"m about beyond frustrated. I've been trying to get my "Vera Edge" Serial gateway up and running. I had it working, using a nano ATmega328 w/FTDI chipset. So that was great! All your posts were very helpful! So I decided to move forward and start building my sensors. The first sensor I built was a motion sensor also using a nano ATmega328. So I got it up and running, communicating with the gateway, and than the Vera controller dropped it and I kept get the same error message, Device not ready, "LUA Startup Failure.
                      If you all have any another ideas on what could be causing this I could sure use your help!
                      Thanks
