Sketch working on Mega 2560 R3 but not on R1/2

Hi,

my Sketch is working on the Mega 2560 R3 but not on an older one.
I don't know if its an R1 or R2 cause there is no print on the PCB.
I also switched the ethernet shield to make sure its not the shield.

The MQTT Server does not receive the "hello world" from the older Mega 2560.

Nobody has a idea why it works on one and not the other :~ ?

I have no idea of what you are trying to do, the code looks pretty alien. I am only going on the quoted line. The only reason I can think of for this to happen is that there are several differences in the pins between Megas and what I assume is a Uno. This particularly applies to analogue and signal from the clock. I was obliged to move from Uno to Mega2560 and, after a bad start, all the problem lay in calling the pins, and the worst I had to was to put in a flying lead from the clock. I guess going the other way could be just as bumpy.

No Uno.
As i wrote both are Megas - just different revisions.

What looks alien maybe is that i use a DS18B20 to generate a unique MAC address
on all my Ethernet Arduinos.
This way you always have unique MAC address's without taking care of them.

You probably don't want to know this, but I have just the reverse situation trying to get data from a GPS module.

See "Sketch works on ATMega328 but not on ATMega2560" in this forum from yesterday

Not exactly the reverse situation - cause mine are both Mega2560 :stuck_out_tongue:
