ESP32 using ESP_NOW channel problem
Posted: Mon Oct 20, 2025 1:03 pm
I have a ESP32 / ESP NOW problem with channels which has just reared its ugly head
i understand about nodes being on the same channel with esp_now and why BUT!!!
i have 2 Linksys mesh nodes which when optimised for channel in the app set themselves to different channels
As my nodes are in different parrts of the house, each node can (and sometimes will) log on through a different mesh node and hence a different channel which can and does cause confusion
as it looks as though there is no way to set the linksys nodes to the same channel then it means my original idea about another linksys node to to expand the network has gone wobbley
does anyone have any ideas how to get around this problem ????
thanks in advance
Dave
