Got it working it was this bit causing issues:

// W5100 Ethernet module SPI enable (optional if using a shield/module that manages SPI_EN signal)
#define MY_W5100_SPI_EN 4

removing that fixed it

Also as my gateway was having issues freaking out when receving radio packets I also modified my ethernet.h per this post:
https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/5109/solved-rfm69-based-nodes-unable-to-report-lib-version/26

and changed the following:

#define MY_DEFAULT_ERR_LED_PIN A0  // Error led pin
#define MY_DEFAULT_RX_LED_PIN  A1  // Receive led pin
#define MY_DEFAULT_TX_LED_PIN  A2  // Transmit led pin

Thank you all for your suggestions.

Your modifications seemed to have resolved the issue.

Also I've made this modification to MyTransport.cpp so it resets the radio on init:

void stInitTransition(void)
{
	#if defined(ADAFRUIT_RFM69)
	pinMode(9, OUTPUT);
	digitalWrite(9, HIGH);
	delay(100);
	digitalWrite(9, LOW);
	delay(100);
	#endif
	TRANSPORT_DEBUG(PSTR("TSM:INIT\n"));

I've updated my sketch to include that for the new driver. Thank you.
I had to use that mod for the older driver.
