Could someone explain how to detect from an application on a Xenon whether the device is Ethernet LAN connected and therefore a gateway device? What does this do? System.enableFeature(FEATURE_ETHERNET_DETECTION);

It should be: if (System.featureEnabled(FEATURE_ETHERNET_DETECTION))

The Ethernet FeatherWing uses SPI, as well as D3, D4, and D5. In order to probe for the presence of the Wiznet W5500 on SPI, D4 and D5 need to be set to output and toggled. This would obviously be bad if you had other, non-Ethernet hardware connected to those GPIO pins. The default defaults to disa…

Thanks, solution is to test if (System.enableFeature(FEATURE_ETHERNET_DETECTION))

Apologies cut’n’paste error

so, once the configuration has been set either through the setup app or the code, (System.featureEnabled(FEATURE_ETHERNET_DETECTION)) and one no longer wants to use that device in the ethernet featherwing is there a piece of code that will disable the detection? i.e. return the device config to w…
