I hate to bring up brand-X. But the latest beta of Pi-Star has no trouble with this exact setup. However I would prefer to use QnetGateway if I can.

So here is whats going on.
QnetITAP is the program that controls the itap modem. It expects to receive data from the radio every so often thats automatically generated, you don't have to do anything at all for this to happen. If it doesn't receive anything for 10 seconds, it shuts down itap and attempts to restart it.? That is whats causing the gateway errors that you see with gate2modem not being found. Once the ITAP application exists, the gate2modem socket is closed, and the gateway can't talk to the modem anymore.
Whats troubling is whats causing the radio to stop responding. Are you using a genuine ICOM data cable hooked to the radio and then to the pi, or are you running any USB extension cables, a non icom cable, etc?
