    The controller is needed for auto ID, but it can also be used myscontroller. It is also written in different places that manual id should be set also in case of problems.

    @gohan indeed you're right. What did you mean with "myscontroller"?

    Setting the node id manually for the ping pong sketch makes them communicate to the Gateway:

    #define MY_NODE_ID 201
    

    Would auto ID work with the ESP MQTT Gateway and OpenHab controller?

    I have an MQTT server up and running and OpenHab is installed with the following configuration in /etc/openhab2/services/mqtt.cfg:

    broker.url=tcp://127.0.0.1:1883
    broker.clientId=OpenHab
    broker.retain=true
    broker.async=false
    

    Yet I still get !TSM:FPAR:NO REPLY

      https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/838/windows-gui-controller-for-mysensors

      I'd start from the ethernet gateway and work it out from there, myscontroller works with ethernet gateway. In openhab I don't know how to enable auto id, but there must be something in documentation. To be honest assigning manually ID has to be done only once because it is saved in eeprom and read at every boot, so I don't see it so mandatory to have the controller handling it.

        @gohan, do you mean http://www.mycontroller.org? I can't find any project page with downloads on the link you provided. There is a download link to a zip file somewhere in the comments but impossible to say if that is still up to date as it dates from 2015.

          yes, it's the zip file. It is a windows app. Mycontroller it is actually a controller like Domoticz or Openhab. I know it is a little old, but it works.

            @gohan, I switched over to mycontroller (from OpenHab) and I'm using Arduino's nodes and I'm still getting errors not finding the parent.

            I'm using the Mock sketch and tested with setting the ID manually but no luck.

            Edit: adding a 4.7 capacitor didn't change this. Neither did downgrading to 2.0.

              On the gateway do you see any message received? Can you post the gateway log when nodes are registering?

                  @mpp the gateway is getting the message and it replies so you could either have a power issue on gateway or range problem. How far are the gw and node?

                    @gohan tested with less than a meter up to 10 meters. In fact the Wemos Node now is working as it shows up in mycontroller but the Pro Mini doesn't receive a response from the GW.

                      Do you have other radio modules to try? If not, if you swap the radios do you see any changes? Are the radio rfm69 right?

                          Removing some of the config lines seems to have an effect:

                          So now the node is sending data but there's no ack/Invalid message length.

                            Are they RFM69HW? What antenna are you using on them?

                              @gohan they're all HW, yes. I tested with single wire and coil antenna's. Atm I'm testing with authentic Moteino's with single wire. They all result in !TSM:FPAR:FAIL.

                                @mpp said in Ping Pong with ESP8266 results in !TSM:FPAR:NO REPLY [solved]:

                                So now the node is sending data but there's no ack/Invalid message length..

                                Any progress on this front? I got the exact same things as the log you posted; loads of NACK's.
                                Checked/replaced radios, antennes and caps ..
