[TINYMESH] About compatibility of the high power and lower power nodes. Please can you explain in more detail what problems I may encounter with the 2 types, as I only see that I will loose the ACK which your data sheet explains as being present on each hop?

The TM protocol support configurable retries if you lose ACK. If selecting the option not using ACK, you also disable this feature for the network to ensure link completed with success by using retries.

[TINYMESH] In the datasheet it says RTS signal may block the GWAY if held high too long. How long is that duration?
[TINYMESH] “We have a doubt about the connections dynamic and network architecture. Consider the image below: 1 – Gateway, Router and End device ar configured with the same RF Power 2 – Gateway signal can reach directly to End Device 3 – Router can reach to Gateway and End Device 4 – The End Device only can reach the Router when transmitting, but receive the signal from Gateway directly Although the end device can receive the signal from the Gateway (above RSSI acceptance level), once the End Device can’t reach the Gateway directly, the connection is never established and the second way through Router is never choosed. The tiny mesh algorithm favors the shortly way to gateway if the rssi level is above acceptance level. If the end device receive the signal from Gateway above acceptance level, but is not able to reach the gateway directly, even if we have a router between Gateway and End Device the connection is never establish. Do you have any explanation to this behavior and a way to improve and avoid this kind of scenario? “
