    HI, I'd like to prepare node on mega+ethShield5100 without radio. Arduino 1.6.9; mysensor 2.1.1.
    So I commented in the sketch line #define MY_RADIO_NRF24.
    At the moment system startup with IP, but halted o the:
    0;255;3;0;9;MCO:BGN:STP
    0;255;3;0;9;MCO:REG:NOT NEEDED
    0;255;3;0;9;MCO:BGN:INIT OK,TSP=NA
    After that system restart startup procedure.
    What I should change?

      @Gumers that depends on what you have ;-) Did you use the ethernet gateway sketch? or something else?

      What typ of sensor do you want to create?

      Could you post the entire log?

        I try to prepare GW sketch for node with relays.
        I'v got problems with NRF (a lot of transmission problems) but I can use LAN for communications.
        All log from node:
        0;255;3;0;9;MCO:BGN:INIT GW,CP=R-NGA--,VER=2.1.1
        0;255;3;0;9;MCO:BGN:BFR

        IMHO it's a problem with initialize radio and sketch halted before Presentation procedure.
        But why?

            Sure
            Part of relay code, same I use now with NRF:

            #define RELAY_OFF 0// GPIO value to write to turn off attached relay
            
            void before()
            {
              for (int sensor=1, pin=RELAY_1; sensor<=NUMBER_OF_RELAYS; sensor++, pin++) {
                // Then set relay pins in output mode
                pinMode(pin, OUTPUT);
                digitalWrite(pin, RELAY_OFF);
                // Set relay to last known state (using eeprom storage)
                //digitalWrite(pin, loadState(sensor)?RELAY_ON:RELAY_OFF);
              }
            }
            
            void presentation()
            {
              // Send the sketch version information to the gateway and Controller
              sendSketchInfo("Mega_eth", "1.0");
            
              for (int sensor=1, pin=RELAY_1; sensor<=NUMBER_OF_RELAYS; sensor++, pin++) {
                // Register all sensors to gw (they will be created as child devices)
                present(sensor, S_BINARY);
              }
            }```

              @Gumers looks like the node resets itself, so we'll need to figure out why/when.
              If you comment out the pinMode and digitalWrite statements, does it still reset?
              Could you add a serial print at end of before() and at start of presentation, to check if the code reaches those lines?
              Do you have a setup function? If so, could you post it?
              How is the mega powered?

                Could be a similar problem as in https://forum.mysensors.org/post/72423 - maybe check your Arduino AVR board version?

                  This node is controled by Domoticz. I saw this hardware in controler without presentation name and childrens. When I turnoff this hardware in Domoticz, node doesen' reset. Log in Domo with hardware up:

                  But still I don't understand why node doesn't present name and relay childs in Domo.

                  At the end of before() serial printed text to debuger - befor() is ok.
                  I commented all lines. Save only presentation sketch name.
                  Setup and loop are empty.

                    @Gumers 1.6.19 is the same version as in the thread I linked. Downgrading seems to solve the problem for people.
