Hi everyone,
I’m new to xbee and saw your post on the forum, thanks for this.
I have Xbee s2c 63mw module connected on my arduino mega, I’m trying to do point to point communication in API mode.In fact, everything is OK, but there are moments when communication breaks down.
I couldn’t understand why. RSSI led sometimes flashes sometimes flashes
When communicating between arduino’s am I making a timing error?
Or could you think of a different situation?
Radio is simply unreliable and sometimes does not work at all (interference, weak or no signal). You have to learn to live with the unreliability.
I have had trouble with xbee range when there are too many solid walls in the way. One solution is to add an intermediate node. How far apart are yours?
actually 1 2 meters in a room for testing
I tried it from 20 meters in outdoor tests
Similar problems continue, sometimes it transmits very well, but the RSSI led goes off and when I increase the microcontroller speed, I start to get a no signal error when the RSSI turns off.

it can be really annoying
I buy a really expensive module and its performance is down
Why not post some information, after reading and following the directions in the "How to get the best out of the forum" post?
Check all your connections. Breadboards and loose wires are also unreliable, and are not the fault of your "expensive module".
