    No, do one change at a time or you will not be able to pinpoint the problem

      @gohan
      again i have this error after 3 hours.
      i test repeater, in this state (error in communicate) i reset repeater. but problem is related to controller or gateway . because after reset , repeater can not connect to gateway, or very hard and bad connect.

        don't you have any other radio modules to try, right?

          i tested before. but test with similar radio from same Producer. other radios have support 5-6 meter distance for me. but this model support 15 meter.so i am using this for controller and repeater. do you think this is related to this model of radio ?

            this is strange for me, why sensors can send to gateway. but gateway can not send to relay node. is not related to power of radio ?
            both "transfer" and "receive" need to same power ? i use regulator ams1117 and 100u cap but perhaps this modules is fake !?

                maybe the voltage regulator? try to swap that too. It is all a matter of trial and error.

                  thank you . i will change the regulator with a better regulator.and i test again . thank you

                    also swapping things between gateway and repeater and see if problem follows the part or not.

                      sorry i didn't get you. if swapping between repeater and gateway have problem so sensors can not send parameter to gateway. just problem is related to transfer from controller to relay node and repeater, that is right ?

                        to test it out you would need at least 2 nodes connected to gateway and 2 to the repeater and test where the node to node communication between all nodes and see which is having problems. The best solution would be to use more than the 2 parts you currently have just to exclude both of them being faulty. I am really running out of options.

                            @gohan
                            for test first i change my regulator in controller and repeater,use LF33 instead of
                            ams1117. but problem dont solve.now i put some relay near controller and connect directly to controller and i will test when there is problem and relay with repeater dont work, so relay that directly connect to controller have same problem or not !

                              @gohan hi
                              again happen this problem . i test relay with repeater and test relay that connect to gateway directly. i see both have problem so i think this related to transmitter of controller and gateway. What do you think?
