Ethernet gateway troubleshooting advice

[hek]

Yes, as it is related to acks both gateway and sensors is affected, But it does not solve the fetch-id-through-repeater problem we also discussed.
I really encourage people to update if they are running code from 10:th of september and after.

[Anticimex]

I have not yet had opportunity to dig. Is the problem already identified and solved?

[hek]

@Anticimex

Yes, I think it is solved. The problem was there even before the RF24 update but it didn't manifest itself as much.

[Anticimex]

@hek great. I'll verify tonight. I have a setup that easily reproduces the problem.

[hek]

I had to update master as it is a show-stopper-bug.

[Dan S.]

Since it is a change to Mysensor.cpp, then I assume all sketches are the same but every sketch that uses Mysensor.cpp (which is all sensors and the gateway) need to be compiled/uploaded again after downloading the new library?

[hek]

@Dan-S.

Yes, if you're running code fetched after Sep 10 (https://github.com/mysensors/Arduino/commit/01a6adb1ccaee4f8546cab607f963dc1d6da4b43).

[Anticimex]

@hek Sorry to report that it does not resolve the ACK-issue. I still have the same phenomenon.

EDIT: Forgot to update GW as well. It works flawlessly :)

[Dan S.]

Gateway and sensors updated. Running fine.

[niccodemi]

@hek I tested with updated library and I can confirm that relay actuator and distance sensor work ok.

[karenbobiv]

I was able to get the GW up and added the temp sensors finally. Thanks for the help. :)

[Dan S.]

@karenbobiv Congratulations!!!

[p0lar]

so is there a 1.4.1 coming out? :)

[korttoma]

@p0lar The 1.4 version at github contains the updates. I guess the version number was not incremented.
I would also like to see version number change if the code changed so it would be possible to know what version you are actually on. There might be a few different 1.4 versions in use at the moment and this is not good when it comes to supporting people when they have problems.

[hek]

Ok you got a tag/version update now. ;)

[niccodemi]

• @hek , ethernet gateway with relay actuator worked fine until today when I updated gateways and nodes to 1.4.1. I know this latest update was supposed to be just name change but now I cannot control actuator anymore. Ethernet gateway has amplified radio which is powered separately (common ground). On the other hand, usb gateway works fine. Ethernet gateway seems to be receiving ok but sending fails. Below is serial print

@niccodemi maybe you should take a look at this thread -> http://forum.mysensors.org/topic/565/solved-problems-with-ethernet-gateway-arduino-ethernet-shield/18

[niccodemi]

@korttoma thanks, I saw that thread (even replied there) and did everything that was suggested. My ethernet gateway is running fine with all sensors except relay actuators.

[ntruchsess]

have noticed the same here. Upgrading the Gateway to 1.4.1 would receive from Relay-actuator 1.4 fine but The relay-actuator wouldn't receive messages sent by gw.
Upgrading the actor to 1.4.1 MySensors lib did solve the issue.

[ntruchsess]

btw: I did improve reconnect of Ethernet-gw: http://forum.mysensors.org/topic/572/improved-ethernet-gateway
