As promised this is my wiring and code, hope this help people out
First the wiring.
Radio - Mega Pin
+3V - NA
-3V - NA
CSN/CS(Yellow) - 6
CE(Orange) - 5
SCK(Green) - 14
MISO(White) - 15
MOSI(Blue) - 16
IRQ(Gray) - 2
Switch - Mega
Left - RESET
Right - 3 (inclusion Button)
LEDs - Mega
Red(Err) - 40
Orange(Rx) - 42
Green(Tx) - 44
All are grounded with 330 Ohm resistors.
And here is my Sketch. One thing I had done when I was just getting lots of shutdowns and errors was to wipe the board - I uploaded blink and left it alone for a minute and then reloaded the gateway with the updated libraries and (knocking on wood) it seems to be stable.
/**
* The MySensors Arduino library handles the wireless radio link and protocol
* between your home built sensors/actuators and HA controller of choice.
* The sensors forms a self healing radio network with optional repeaters. Each
* repeater and gateway builds a routing tables in EEPROM which keeps track of the
* network topology allowing messages to be routed to nodes.

*******************************
*
* REVISION HISTORY
* Version 1.0 - Henrik EKblad
* Contribution by a-lurker and Anticimex,
* Contribution by Norbert Truchsess <norbert.truchsess@t-online.de>
* Contribution by Tomas Hozza <thozza@gmail.com>
*
*
* 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 MY_DEFAULT_xxx_LED_PIN in the sketch below
* - 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.
