its exactly as you guys say. taking a mega solves my issue and thats fine. i work with arduinos for many years now but its the first time i ran out of storage so i did not have this on the radar. i also learned much about arduinos with that issue. i guess thats a huge thanks for steering me into the right direction.
@mfalkvidd
i will definetly do that within the next days.
hey. i was having the same problems from time to time - i found out that its mostly wiring - therefor i am a great fan of easypcb and other boards that let one mount the radio directly.
and also mounting a fan on my gateway (rpi3b) helped a lot with that. other than that repeaternodes...
also install myscontroller - makes debugging way nicer and more efficient because you see in realtime whats going on... you might not have just one problem but more at the same time.
as soon as i burned a new bootloader it worked. watchdog does not like old bootloader and since mysensors is using that for rebooting it fixed my issue.

EDITED ANSWER*: it worked!
@mfalkvidd said in mysbootloader with MY_SIGINING_SIMPLE_PASSWD:
@zen85 MySensors is open source. Anything is possible, if someone builds it
i am thinking about digging into this since this is the only thing missing i would love seeing. i really want the network secured with a password to be safe. i guess the main limitation is the size of the bootloader and therefor it has to be extremly clever... am i right?
or are there other options i am not thinking about to make my network a bit secure?
@anticimex
i thought so since using #define MY_ENCRYPTION_SIMPLE_PASSWD does not do any of the signing stuff but still works fine. it seems way simpler. i just hoped that would solve my issue... i tried messing with the bootloader but i did not get anywhere so far.
can someone tell me if
#define MY_ENCRYPTION_SIMPLE_PASSWD "mypassword" would work with mysbootloader?
so if i use an esp8266 as gateway AND i want to use the bufferfeature - to which pin do i have to actually connect the irq on the esp8266? The documentation is not helping me here.

@tekka
thanks for the answer... is the term 'currently' an indicator that this might change anytime? i would love to be able to do fota and have at least basic security....
@torfinn
i had to set
#define MY_RF24_CE_PIN 10
#define MY_RF24_CS_PIN 9
on mine (definetly not + btw) a while back....
i do not find any information on where and how to set the MY_SIGINING_SIMPLE_PASSWD in the bootloader so i can compile one that works with this feature. the docs just say it is able to do signing since 1.3 - but i guess setting a password would now work for firmware updates for example?

ok... some success but not really. The bootloader does not seem to work using my custom-boards where the ce and cs pin are switched? where does one have to put something like:
#define RF24_CE_PIN 10
#define RF24_CS_PIN 9
?
should it be in the mysbootloader.c? because this did not work... or somewhere else?
the line "#define SPI_PINS_CE9_CSN10" in the mysbootloader.c also worries me? but just switching the numbers does not work either and throws an error...
