I’m doing a project that involves one of the development nodes and an nrf2401 with the trace antenna on it. Then the other node is another transceiver with a pic16f88 and a max232 to connect to my computer. I have been trying to get a mesh network working and have been working with the PicPack library that i would imagine you have heard of. If not, its a library with an included mesh network packet delivery system made to work with the exact components im using. Right now i can be sure that all serial stuff is working i can program them perfectly i try and send a packet with one node it says its trying to send but never gets an ack and fails. While at the other end nothing happens. I have done some simple things like check on the receiving end to see if the external interrupt is tripped but is not. So it leads me to believe either the modules are not being configured correctly (which is doubtful since im using the libraries working code) or there are hardware issues? So what can i do to narrow this search down?
You have to check if receiver and transmitter have the same configuration :
-PIPE address
-RF Channel
-Payload width
-ack enable
