[Solved]UPL:Fail

@Pictor-Lallemand Looks to me like a power issue, not an antenna issue.

Half of the messages are OK, and then all of a sudden they all fail:

At what frequency are you running your minis? Out of curiosity, can you post a pic of your node+radio (ideally with a pic of the cap) and GW+radio - this may give additional info.

@Pictor-Lallemand ok, now upload this sketch to both nodes and post the debug output:

#define MY_CORE_ONLY
#include <MySensors.h>
void setup(){
  MY_SERIALDEVICE.begin(115200);
  MY_SERIALDEVICE.println(F("**********"));
  MY_SERIALDEVICE.println(__FILE__);

@Pictor-Lallemand Ok output looks good, GW is running at a slightly higher frequency - but this can also be an artefact. I assume your radios run at 3V3?

Let's try these things:

increase the RF24 data rate to 1MBPS using

#define MY_RF24_DATARATE RF24_1MBPS

If (1) doesn't improve the radio transmissions, change the RF24 channel using

#define MY_RF24_CHANNEL 37

Pictor Lallemand

@tekka I already used the command 1Mbit

Pictor Lallemand

after having followed your two board this is what I get the node code

the gateway code

  /**
 * The MySensors Arduino library handles the wireless radio link and protocol
 * between your home built sensors/actuators and HA controller of choice.
 * The sensors forms a self healing radio network with optional repeaters. Each
 * repeater and gateway builds a routing tables in EEPROM which keeps track of the
 * network topology allowing messages to be routed to nodes.

 *******************************
 *
 * DESCRIPTION
 * The ArduinoGateway prints data received from sensors on the serial link. 
 * The gateway accepts input on seral which will be sent out on radio network.
 *
 * The GW code is designed for Arduino Nano 328p / 16MHz
 *
 * Wire connections (OPTIONAL):
 * - Inclusion button should be connected between digital pin 3 and GND  
 * - RX/TX/ERR leds need to be connected between +5V (anode) and digital pin 6/5/4 with resistor 270-330R in a series
 *
 * LEDs (OPTIONAL):
 * - To use the feature, uncomment MY_LEDS_BLINKING_FEATURE in MyConfig.h
 * - RX (green) - blink fast on radio message recieved. In inclusion mode will blink fast only on presentation recieved
 * - TX (yellow) - blink fast on radio message transmitted. In inclusion mode will blink slowly
 * - ERR (red) - fast blink on error during transmission error or recieve crc error 
 *
