Neopixel not working!

[signorettae]

Hi everybody! I'm trying to implement some code in order to use the library also on Fishino boards (once it'ill work I'll do a pull request), but something isn't working wery well. When I upload the sketch the board connects to the AP but leds don't work or sometimes do random colors. I tried to comment pieces of code ad I saw that if i comment Artnet artnet; leds start to work as they should. I'm sending Artnet data from LightJams on my pc (192.168.1.100) and my board's ip is 192.168.1.101. Anyone can help me?

Thank you PS: I modified also the .cpp and .h files in order to work with Fishino boards.

@signorettae I don't know how familiar you are with the protocol Art-Net. But a lot off artnet problems like this are caused by network issue. Been there myself. By convention the artnet ip range should be within 2.x.x.x However, this does not mean that 192.x.x.x or 10.x.x.x are not going to work. They will. Tricky part is in the subnet mask. Artnet by default a broadcast protocol and therefor it is recommended to use 255.0.0.0 as subnet mask in your network. In order to subscribe to a artnet port your node needs to reply on the ArtPoll messages. If both are not within the same subnet you will have troubles. Also a lot of lighting tools (mainly dedicated hardware like lighting desks) require an IP within that 2.x.x.x range. Also artnet requires a dedicated network. I've never really tried it myself but artnet cannot co exist in your home network. But again, just an assumption. In theory if both IPs are within the 192.168.0.x range and your subnet mask is set to 255.255.255.0 it should work.

Beside that, I quickly looked at your code and noticed the defines to set your IP, subnet, etc. It gave me the chills, I'm not sure the compiler will implement this the correct way. You defined decimal values separated by a comma. Very confusing. Have you check you ip address once compiled?

this being said, the broadcast address is your controller address. Did you set artnet to unicast then? Otherwise you would need something like 192.168.0.255 (note that the default broadcast address is 2.255.255.255)
