Hi Everyone. We are working on developing an Ethernet interface for the Particle platform. We debated many avenues for this project but landed on connecting the Particle processor to a Wiznet W5500 via SPI. Wiznet had libraries for Arduino which I have ported for Particle. The library is fully f…

I was thinking of that, too. :slight_smile:

Hey @peekay123 Good to hear from you again. I absolutely agree that it will NOT be trivial to do this. And I realize you know from experience as I have seen you post about the very same subject on other threads. I am a big advocate of the RPi but I definitely see the need for this type of small …

@IOTrav , I totally agree that RPi/Linux is not an industrial platform (I wish QNX was available!). I don’t see any way of adding Ethernet than creating a new variant with major changes to the firmware, ideally below the HAL. The challenge will always be to stay in step with system firmware updates…

Hey @peekay123 This first iteration of the project where we are just connecting the W5500 to a photon module using the overlay architecture is really just the first step in this project. Eventually we plan to design a 100% ethernet dedicated particle module using the STM32 processor on the board. …

@jonlogan , have you got anybody on your list who might be capable to assist? Also @will might find the project interesting as a possible compound to extend the Particle IoT radius.

Perhaps @Maddy5075 might be able to assist as it seems he is working on something similar. [image] Particle Photon like product using STM32F207’s ethernet,cloud handshake error -19 Product Creation The custom (Photon like, STM32F207 Ethernet, instead of Wifi) device acquir…

Interesting! We have managed to connect to cloud using STM32F207, of course with the help of Dave when we shared our unique device ID.

What communication interface did you use with the STM32F207?

STM32F207’s built in Ethernet MAC. I had to make some modifications to WICED stack.

Great question! We have a list of partners that can help with this. The two that I would recommend for this case are Radio Bridge and Lab651. Send me details in a DM and I can make an intro. cc @IOTrav
