i got it working.
i sat the board in I2C Mode, channel1 = on and channel2 = off.
Then i powered the PN532 board on a external power source.
Before i did a step up to 5V, that was wrong it should only get 3.3V.
And the arduino GND should be connected to the external power sources GND as well, to make a common ground.
Hope it helps.
@jeti the first thing was not enough power to the radio, and i think the next thing is the I2C mode. But it seems that i have set that one up correctly also so im not sure now.
Im download a raw PN532 Libary with exemples to see if it the board, or maybe something with mysensors.
okay, i actually found the solution. As the RFID and the radio was powered from the same 3.3 pin on the arduino i think the radio didn't get enough power. So i moved the RFID to a externel power source. And that did get the node to boot, but now it says:
Couldn't find PN53x board
it maybe can be the I2C mode, but i not actually sure how to set this. now i have set up like this
im not getting anything from the logs on the gateway, so I seems that the node is not getting connected to the gateway.
but if I swap the RFID with a pir instead same wiring and all, only added the wire to the pir and swapped the power wires to the pir. Then it works perfectly.
The setup is:
Arduino Pro Mini 328 3.3v
NRF24L01+
PN532 NFC RFID Reader/Writer Module V3
1Pc DC-DC Boost Converter Step Up Module 1-5V to 5V 500mA
and this is the sketch, where you can see the RFID should connect to A4, A5, which i have solder on to the pro mini.

Has anyone got this working.

can anyone help here?
Thank you, i found it and downgrade, with got it to work.
mine was a 1.6.14, so think it's has been updated but not fixed.
sorry to ask, but how do you down grade?
Hi, i hope some one can help here.
Im trying to build a ethernet gate way, and i have the ENC28J60 module. First i tried following the wiring on this page in the ENC28J60 section.
https://www.mysensors.org/build/ethernet_gateway
And did by splitting my cables to get on pin out to both the ethernet module and the radio. I upload the sketch from there, but i got a radio fail. I tried unplugging the ethernet module, and then the radio worked.
I then tried to do the wiring from the W5100 section and i then modified the sketch using som code from the W5100 sketch, to get the new pins in. So the sketch looked like.

* DESCRIPTION
* The EthernetGateway sends data received from sensors to the ethernet link.
* The gateway also accepts input on ethernet interface, which is then sent out to the radio network.
*
* The GW code is designed for Arduino 328p / 16MHz. ATmega168 does not have enough memory to run this program.
*
* LED purposes:
* - To use the feature, uncomment WITH_LEDS_BLINKING in MyConfig.h
* - RX (green) - blink fast on radio message recieved. In inclusion mode will blink fast only on presentation recieved
* - TX (yellow) - blink fast on radio message transmitted. In inclusion mode will blink slowly
* - ERR (red) - fast blink on error during transmission error or recieve crc error
*
* See http://www.mysensors.org/build/ethernet_gateway for wiring instructions.

But im still getting a radio fail. I have also tried swapping the radio out, with one that i know for surtane is working.
Hope some one can help.
thank you so much, that seem to do the trick. the gate way was started and the sensor was add, as soon as it was turned on.
