I just spent a long time troubleshooting my problems trying to set this up and I thought I would share. I followed this tutorial and everything was a breeze except my unit kept rebooting and I couldn't figure out why. I thought for the longest time it was the power supply but it ended up being the version of Arduino IDE I was using. I found some answers https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/4628/solved-mysensors-2-0-ethernet-gateway-enc28j60-restart-ip-issue/46 and https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/4680/mysensors-2-0-ethernet-gateway-atmega-w5100-restart-all-time that got me down the right path. I downgraded to "Arduino IDE 1.6.11" and that worked. I completely uninstalled arduino from my system and just started over with the older version. I assembled everything as I had done before and it just fired right up. The mysensors library I used was 2.0.0 and again it all worked perfectly. I was amazed. I didnt have to comment out the debug or do anything other than follow the tutorial EXCEPT only use 1.6.11 to upload it all.
Hope this helps someone in the future.

RE: Which Arduino IDE version?
I completely agree. I am having a hell of a time getting mine to work at its to the point where I'm searching for an alternative to mysensors. This post should be in the main page regarding setup. I have wasted hours trying to figure this out.
