ESP NOW maximum peers

Postby fodgeri » Tue Apr 09, 2019 7:43 am

Hi,

I have a question about the ESP NOW maximum clients. The documentation says the maximum limit of encrypted peers is 10 in Station mode and 6 in Station + AP mode. I would like to use the ESP NOW for one ESP32 acting like HUB device and many (more than 10) peers connected to this HUB. These peer devices are often in deep sleep mode, so the concurrent connection to the ESP32 HUB device will be always less than 10. Is this possible with the ESP NOW? Is the limitation for the concurrent clients?

Thanks,
Gary

If you want to do it legitimately, no.
BUT you can kind of get way with it by doing a UNICAST espnow send and setting all your nodes to have the same MAC address.
