I never used openhab, but your description makes me think about the way your sensor sleeps.
Are you using sleep or smart sleep?
If you want to achieve what you described you should use the second one, which informs the controller that the node is awake.
This is the full code, in my previous message I tried simplifing it and I missed a variable declaration:

I have an ethernet gw based on Arduino Uno + W5100, working as expected.
I tried to add an actuator (a simple relay), thus I added the usual "receive" function to the script, but at this point the ethernet stopped sending messages to others nodes.
I tried filtering the destination, sensors type etc. but it still doesn't work.
I suppose I should "forward" the messages manually in my receive function, correct?
Does someone have a working example?
Thanks
Daniele
@tekka my setup is quite simple:
void setup() {
wdt_disable();
pinMode(RAIN_D_PIN, INPUT_PULLUP);
// pinMode(REED_PIN, INPUT_PULLUP);
pinMode(VELUX_UP_PIN, OUTPUT);
pinMode(VELUX_DOWN_PIN, OUTPUT);
digitalWrite(VELUX_UP_PIN, RELAY_OFF);
digitalWrite(VELUX_DOWN_PIN, RELAY_OFF);
sensors.begin();
if (!sensors.getAddress(ds18Addr, 0))
Serial.println("************** Unable to find address for Device 0");
sensors.setResolution(ds18Addr, 11);
wdt_enable(WDTO_8S);
}
the only driver I use is the one from DallasTemperature library, which I used also in other nodes without any issue.
This evening I'll try removong it to see if it has any effect.
Regarding radio issues, this node goes completely offline from that message on: it neither sends nor receive any message.
Hi, I prepared a new node with Arduino Nano (clone) and NRF24.
Everything seems to work, the node connects to the network and sends the presentation info, but then I receive this in the serial log:
MCO:BGN:INIT OK,TSP=0
which using the parser translates into:
Core initialized, transport status 0, (1=initialized, 0=not initialized, NA=not available)
I never had this kind of error with my other node, could someone point me to the meaning of this message (how can it be "not initialized" if it successfully sent the all the presentation messages?) or to the possible cause?
This is the complete log:

I tried changing the NRF24 with another one which works on another node, I tried changing the IRQ pin, or disabling the IRQ, but still the same errors.

I never used openhab, but your description makes me think about the way your sensor sleeps.
Are you using sleep or smart sleep?
If you want to achieve what you described you should use the second one, which informs the controller that the node is awake.
It works like a charm!
Thank you for the suggestion, maybe it could be useful to add to the guide on building the ethernet gateway.
An example would be great!
Thank you very much
@yveaux said in Node stops receiving after some time when using MY_RX_MESSAGE_BUFFER_FEATURE:
@mathea90 I've used it for over 2 years now on my ethernet gateway and it never failed me.
Sorry for bringing back an old post, but I tried to enable the messagge buffer on my ethernet gw and I failed due to this error:
#error RF24 IRQ usage cannot be used with Soft SPI
My setup is Arduino Uno + W5100 Ethernet Shield + NRF24.
I'm using soft SPI as explained in the ethernet gw page.
How did you overcome this problem?
Thanks
Daniele
