Hi, I'm trying to build a XBEE mesh network.
The idea is that I have a couple of measuring devices (XBEE routers) that collect data and than send it to my XBEE coordinator. The problem that I run into is that some of the routers are out of range for direct communication with the coordinator. Supposedly XBEE should be capable of solving this by sending the out of reach data through a router closer to the coordinator, but in practise this doesn't seem to work for me. Direct communication is no problem but they don't seem to use each other as throughput.
Has anybody have any experience with this and could someone help me with tips/code? Please?
My consists of five routers and one coordinator all running the API firmware. The routers talk to the coordinator by sending a message to 0x00000000.
Might there be anything I have to set in the XBEE firmware to get them to route through each other?
