Ah ok, well I'm very excited to see this area improve, hopefully this v2.2.0 beta is aiming for a release in the near future and is able to include the new driver and linux gateway improvements. I'll wait patiently for now ;)

I had the same issue today with a RFM69HW connected to a Wemos D1 Mini. The above solution worked, thank you so much. I had no idea what was going on. I also have a RFM69W connected to a generic ESP12-E and with the same code I didn't need to reset. Seems to be hardware related.

@OpticFroggy sorry for the late reply. I haven't used rfm radios before, but tonight I finally got it working, with a lot of help from @scalz and the rest of the MySensors team. This is my wiring: [image: 0_1487971221147_connect_nodemcu.png] [image: 0_1488012242199_IMG_1614.PNG] [image: 0_1487971484694_connect_table_rfm69_esp8266.png] These are my settings in the sketch: #define MY_RADIO_RFM69 #define MY_RFM69_FREQUENCY RF69_433MHZ #define MY_IS_RFM69HW #define MY_RF69_IRQ_PIN D1 #define MY_RF69_IRQ_NUM MY_RF69_IRQ_PIN #define MY_RF69_SPI_CS D2 // NSS D8 cannot be used because it interferes with uploading sketches. With this, I got an nodemcu rfm69H-433 ethernet gateway working, and a wemos d1 mini rfm69H-433 sensor node. I used MySensors 2.1.1.
