I did other experiments and i found that, with little data size, the nodes are able to send and receive all packets they generate. So it's definitely a memory problem. But i think not to use so much memory and i free, when i can, the used structures. Remember i need a buffer chain in each node cause i store incoming packets and then i create new coded packets from these buffers. Now my question is: with Micaz motes, tinyos 1.x, how much memory in ROM and RAM can i use? and is it possible to use the FLASH memory?if yes how?and what's the size of it? If possible, i'd like to receive very precise informations for understanding my problem in the best way. Thanks very much for your availability cheers Daniele

One clue is that I seem to see a lot of length 5 buffer pools in TOS... You might want to double check that you are freeing buffers after use.
