    And you set up the pins radio type in your gateway sketch too right?

    // Enables and select radio type (if attached)
    #define MY_RADIO_RFM69
    #define MY_RFM69_FREQUENCY   RF69_868MHZ
    #define MY_RF69_IRQ_PIN 4
    #define MY_RF69_SPI_CS 15

        I guess you would need to give the logs for the gateway too, to see if you have a radio fail somewhere.

            It seems good on the gateway to me, no radio error at least.
            Past that no idea.

                  On the arduino mini I think you should connect the DI00 (IRQ) to pin 2 like you see on this page

                  For some CPU types the IRQ pin is hard coded and can not be re-assigned.

                      @emc2 Interesting read.

                      @korttoma I've connected up IRQ line. Still no luck,

                      @TON-RIJNAARD Have tried that now as well. No luck.

                      Tried going back to basics and now have 2 x Arduino pros with RFM69 - both loaded with pingpong script.

                      Don't know where I'm going wrong but I can't even start the script - entering 1 or T does nothing. (I"ve used the script before with the NRF radio and it works)

                      Have also tried the latest dev version.

                      Just keep getting this on both arduinos:

                      0 MCO:BGN:INIT NODE,CP=RRNNA--,VER=2.0.1-beta
                      4 TSM:INIT
                      1 MCO:BGN:INIT NODE,CP=RRNNA--,VER=2.0.1-beta
                      5 TSM:INIT
