Hi,
Iam looking for an alternative way to use mysensors without any WIFI / nrf24l01+ / wireless communication.
The reason for that is: i have setup a gateway at my attic and 3 nodes on the floors below.
I have it setup like this:
Gateway (attic) -> Node 1 (work room, 1st floor) -> node 2 (kitchen, ground floor) -> Node 3 (living room, ground floor)
So basically if node 1 craps out on me, node 2 & 3 will go down as wel, since they rely on node 1 to pass the info to the gateway. Ive tried different antenna's but there is too much electrical wires and concrete in the way for a good signal. There is not allot of room for different locations, so i have to see if i can do it by running UTP cables.
WIFI is also crap, even 1 floor takes 90% of the signal
So is there a way for mysensors to connect via UTP / LAN cables?
Otherwise i have to refer to Ethernet shields and aREST lib
