    Hallo,
    I`m running this ethernet-gateway with w5100 shield on uno.
    In the log of iobroker I always see this message again and again:
    mysensors.0 2018-01-26 11:10:58.942 error Error for "192.168.178.133": Error: read ECONNRESET
    mysensors.0 2018-01-26 11:10:55.105 info Received INTERNAL message: I_GATEWAY_READY: Gateway startup complete.

    mysensors.0 2018-01-26 11:10:54.897 error Error for "192.168.178.133": Error: read ECONNRESET
    I cannot find a solution in the forum of iobroker and also nothing about it in this forum.
    By the way: In the list of objects in iobroker there is always a child id 255 without any state or value.
    Is it an issue ?
    Perhaps of iobroker?
    Any solution?

      Look at the gateway log and see if you get any error

          Can you try with latest mysensors 2.2?

            I did.
            Error comes once, than for minutes no error. And now the error disappeared out of the log.
            I don`t understand .
            Thank you for the hint.

                Hello, all. Nuuubeee here, though been doing MUCH reading/studying. I had previously (before stumbling upon this site) decided to go with MRF69HWs. I see that the code can be un-commented for this radio, but having difficulty with pinouts and mismatching pin anmes: the RFMs (appear) to have no corresponding pins to the NRFs CE and CSN pins. The MRF uses NSS and D100 pins, not labeled as such on the NRF. Same use with different labels? I've poked around looking for hints and tips about wiring the MRFs to work with the W5100, though so far, haven't found what (I think ) I need.

                Thanx!

                  @flyyboyy hi and welcome to the forum!

                  Is this what you need?

                    Have seen and studied that, though at the top of this page it mentions some necessary changes for use with the W5100:
                    "The W5100 ethernet module has problems sharing SPI with radio. To solve this, we put the radio on a couple of other pins and use so called soft-spi. That's why you have to wire the radio a little differently here than on the usual sensors. "
                    I assume that for this reason the link you replied with would not work. Some times I get into trouble assuming things; if those connections work for the gateway, I guess I'm good to go (and just didn't realize it).
                    Thanx

                      I did look a little closer to the page you referenced and noticed your pin "color coding" was identical between the two radios, even though those two pin names were different. Would it be safe to interpolate those same "color codes" between the radio and the Arduino (using Pro Mini) even though the pin names are different?

                        Thanks for clarifying @flyyboyy
                        The following are used for SPI:
                        NSS (also called SÌ…SÌ…, SSEL, CS, CÌ…SÌ…, CE, nSS, /SS, SS# according to wikipedia)
                        SCK
                        MOSI
                        MISO

                        and yes, I think they use the same colors on the nrf and rfm instructions. But I am not sure about CE vs CSN on the nrf24.

                        I have updated the table for w5100 to include the NSS naming.

                            OK, who's up for a WHOLE LOTTA handholding? Dang, guess I'm getting denser the older I get.
                            Is this page the place to solicit help, or should I start a new topic in the forum? I searched there for answers to my yet-unstated questions but found nothing. Guess I am the only one that doesn't get it. . .
                            TIA for any takers

                              By the way, the questions at this point relate directly to the Ethernet Gateway -- that's why I was asking if this page was the proper place to ask

                                @flyyboyy here or in a new thread doesn't matter that much - as long as you don't post the same thing in multiple places.

                                https://forum.mysensors.org/category/5/troubleshooting is a good category for troubleshooting

                                The post at the top of that page lists the most common problems, how to troubleshoot them, and what information is usually required to help so you can get help as quick as possible.

                                  I kinda expected that it should go into the forum; I posted it in the General Discussion category, then even missed indicating I was looking for help -- it's simply titled "Ethernet Gateway." Oh, well. . .

                                  Thanks

                                    WizNET W5500 Ethernet module

                                    For your information.
                                    A W5500 module can also be used. The wiring is the same as for the W5100 module (with A0, A1, A2). The Arduino code must be changed in two places:

                                    1. use as Ethernet module type
                                      #define MY_GATEWAY_ENC28J60

                                    2. #include <Ethernet2.h> instead of #include <Ethernet.h>

                                        @bazzoka and @Chris83:

                                        The newest version of the standard Arduino Ethernet (2.0.0) now has built-in support for the W5500 (in addition to W5200 and W5100) modules.
                                        This eliminates the need to pull in the Ethernet2 library and change the sketch code to build an Ethernet Gateway with the newer/cheaper/better W5500 modules.
                                        Supposedly it also has some substantial performance improvements as well (see here: https://www.pjrc.com/arduino-ethernet-library-2-0-0/).
                                        The only downside I have run across so far is the increased progmem flash size that makes the sketch about 2.8 KB larger.

                                          Hi
                                          I try building gateway on my Arduino Mega and i defined this:
                                          // Controller ip address. Enables client mode (default is "server" mode).
                                          // Also enable this if MY_USE_UDP is used and you want sensor data sent somewhere.
                                          #define MY_CONTROLLER_IP_ADDRESS 192, 168, 13, 252
