Hi, I was trying to complete the tutorial An example of ROS serial network but when I'm in the step of connect the xbees I get this error:

[INFO] [1529324674.474169]: Requesting topics...
[ERROR] [1529324689.479008]: Unable to sync with device; possible link problem or link software version mismatch such as hydro rosserial_python with groovy Arduino

I have tested the xbees with XCTU so I know they work, but with ROS I have this problem. I have Melodic, and I have tried in Lunar too but nothing. I couldn't find a solution in the others questions so if you can help me it would be very nice. Thanks.

PD: My Ubuntu Version is 18.04
