Hi again,
Can anyone tell me whether they have been able to use the RFM69 with the Ethernet gateway on the dev branch of Mysensors or is it only the Serial gateway which works with RFM69?
Thanks

I'm not sure what you're looking for. If you want to know if the RFM69/Moteino/W5100 modules can work together as a gateway, the answer is absolutely Yes, but - you need to rewire the W5100 CS(SS) pin to an unused Moteino pin and use a modified W5100 library (look for kiwi's posting on this).
I don't know if anyone has successfully attached an RFM69 module to the MySensors' Ethernet Gateway implementation.

Guys, I've had some exchanges with HenrikE, the creator (?) of MySensors and at the time he was trying to add RFM69 support, not sure what the progress is.
After all the debates I still think a Pi is the way to gateway a diy IoT/HA network :), just my 2 cents
I managed to get the serial gateway from mysensors working with RF69. I think the ethernet one will work as well, I just need to configure the SoftSPI correctly...I Think.
I previously used the ethernet GW to "manage" NRF24L01 radio traffic and then feed it into a BeagleBone Black. This is why I am trying to now just substitute the RF69 modules in for better range.
Mysensors has a couple nice aspects to it, like repeater nodes and integration with a number of HA controllers. This is why I am playing around with it.
Felix, thanks for the hard work on RF69 Library.
