Looks like i have found the issue.

The parts i ordered where nrf24l01+ but what i was sent was nrf24l01.

see picture

Is there any way i can use the non plus version

Specify your environment:
Arduino Nano Mega328 16mhz
Arduino IDE 1.6.7, Windows 10
Mysesnors library 1.5

Hi, I am trying to build a simple serial gateway however when I read the debug information back from the nano. I get the following message.

"0;0;3;0;9;radio init fail"

The nano is wired up correctly and I have tried 3 radios they all give the same error.

My nano is wired as below. All connection buzzed out from chip to chip.

What am I doing wrong?
