Excessive NACK



  • If I set the ACK flag in my send() , I get a lot of NACK from the MQTT gateway..

    MySensor 2.1b
    M0 CPU
    IDE 1.6.13

    1. Will MySensor do the auto re-transmit? if not, why not?, it should up to N times.
    2. If I run without the ACK flag set, I get very few if any NACK
    3. If I add a 500ms delay after each send, the number of NACK is less, (but this is a waist of power)
    4. all board have 47uf at the radio

    there are few things missing..

    • what's your hardware for GW (mcu). i assume your node is atsam
    • which radio? rfm95?

    if this is rfm95, i think it's because the lib is still new and dev for the moment, but lot of work is done. Also note rssi is already implemented. not completely but it's there 😉



  • This post is deleted!


  • Gateway is ESP8266 and radio is RFM95



  • How did you solve this finally?

    I'm also experiencing a huge amount of NACK's. Adding large delays solves the NACK's but isn't an option as I want to use batteries.



  • @mpp 90-95% percent of my NACKs were solved by:

    1. changing radio
    2. installing or changing capacitor
    3. changing the radio power supply
