          @Fwessels I don't know. My best guess is that is has something to do with your Arduino IDE version. I'm using version 1.5.7 without problems.

          As for speed and range, I have not tested speed, but my range is about 60 m at the lowest power setting of the HW-version. This is with standard radio parameters.

            @kolaf where do I set the radio frequency in what libary. I look through all the library and I don't see where you set the radio frequency.

            I am also busy downloading the latest IDE

              Example:

              void setup()  
              {  
                
                if(gw.setRadio(&driver)) {
              	driver.setFrequency(868);
              	driver.setTxPower(14);
              	gw.begin();
                }
               // Setup the button
                pinMode(BUTTON_PIN,INPUT);
                // Activate internal pull-up
                digitalWrite(BUTTON_PIN,HIGH);
                sensors.begin();
                // After setting up the button, setup debouncer
                gw.sendSketchInfo("Wave switch 3", "1.1");
                // Register binary input sensor to gw (they will be created as child devices)
                // You can use S_DOOR, S_MOTION or S_LIGHT here depending on your usage. 
                // If S_LIGHT is used, remember to update variable type you send in. See "msg" above.
                gw.present(CHILD_ID, S_LIGHT); 
                gw.present(CHILD_TEMPERATURE, S_TEMP);
                gw.request(2,V_LIGHT);
              }

                  @Francois I get this errors as well using Arduino IDE v1.0.6 and many many more errors when I use IDE v1.5.7. Did you figure out a solution? I'm running Windows 8.1 64 bit.

                    @Demondreamer No I spend days on this trying to figure out why I am getting all the errors. I upgrade from IDE 1.5.6 to 1.5.7 and was getting the same errors. Im also running Win 8.1 64 bit. I was hoping that the team that was working on this would have released a new version by now but I don't see any activity on this front.

                      This may have already been answered by have you guys tried another IDE? Something like Atmel + Visual Micro
