I find myself in need of a wired ethernet connection. I want to stay on the Particle platform because of the upcoming Electron. I’m attempting to grab data from an embedded system through a web interface and then relay it to my database for analysis etc. I have acquired a Wiznet W5100 breakout that communicates via SPI. Physical connection was easy. The board is communicating with the network - I can see the link and rx/tx lights going. I’ve tried my hand at bringing over the Arduino library. With guidance from here I made some headway. Every time I tried compiling I was missing another #include file. After tracking down about 5 additional files I had everything I needed. Now I’m stuck. Getting tons of compile errors. Also doesn’t help that I’m pretty green when it comes to C++. However I am motivated to learn. Anyone else interested in tackling this with me? Or have any guidance?

@aruangra, it isn't on the IDE as the library is not fully tested and/or working. You can find the library above: [image] Porting the ethernet library from Arduino Firmware @peekay123 Here’s the link to all the source files. I compiled this locally against 0.6.1 firmware. AFAIK no more changes were made than these two lines I’ve mentioned, but I didn’t run diff against mine and the orginal files. I used the code you’ve posted on dropbox as a starter. There’s a lot of commented out Serial.print*.

@peekay123 From you test so far, does the TCP client works? It is all I need. Could you point me to how to connect to a server at an IP address and a port? Thank you.

I found this… [image] UIPEthernet/UIPEthernet UIPEthernet library for Arduino IDE,Eclipse with arduino plugin and MBED/SMeshStudio (AVR,STM32F,ESP8266,Intel ARC32, Nordic nRF51, Teensy boards,Realtek Ameba(RTL8195A,RTL8710)), ENC28j60 network ... The library supports STM32F which is the same MCU as Particle Photon/Electron. Has anyone tried it? Regards,

I try porting at this time. If anyone tried compile already, and have any information please share it. Best Regards

@cassyarduino Great that you work on this platform. I am happy to help you test on Photon and Electron. Thank you.

Hi I ported the ETHER_28J60 + Ethershield libraries: [image] muanis/arduino-projects arduino-projects - My Arduino Projects It is the simplest library for the ENC28J60 ethernet module. See the comparison in [image] Tweaking4All.com - Web-Enable your Arduino with an Arduino ENC28J60 Ethernet... A guide to web-enable your Arduino with the very cheap Arduino ENC28J60 Ethernet module so you can hookup your Arduino to a network to send or receive data. I mainly replaced some functions in enc28j60.cpp with those in the ethercard library ported by @peekay123 The compilation went well. However, the binary didn’t work. Please anyone see what is wrong. My code is here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B3RSuv91xWggZ0tDODdzMEpza28?usp=sharing The module works fine with Arduino boards running either ETHER_28J60 + Ethershield or Ethercard libraries. I wired as follows. SS -> A2 SCK -> A3 SO -> A4 SI -> A5 GND -> GND VCC -> 3V3 I am sure it is correct. See photos in my google drive. Any input would be appreciated. Thank you.

Good news! The library works now. I accidentally set the CS pin to D5 instead of A2. The ported library in my google drive is updated. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B3RSuv91xWggZ0tDODdzMEpza28 Please use one .ino file when compiling.

Hi, Great job on this topic @aruangra & @peekay123 I bought few of the ENC28J60 on Ebay (Link) and try to test @aruangra’s library since today. I saw the IP address 192.168.1.15 one time when I ran the command netstat -n But the status was SYN_SEND Unfortunately, now I don’t see this ip address anymore. Green led is solid Yellow led is blinking few times per second with the same frequency. I tried both firmwares provided by @aruangra By the way I try to import the library in the web ide Is there a better way than copy/paste code from each file from the Arduino ide to the particle web ide ? (I’m a newbie in library…) Regards,

Hey Aruangra, Was wondering if you were willing to help with setting up ethernet (using the enc28j60) on my photon with your library? EDIT: If @peekay123 is willing to chip in also, any help would be appreciated. =]

Hello @peekay123, I am currently working on Particle Electron. I saw your code for Ethernet connectivity. My device is totally working on TCP client-server communication. In your code, I found code for udpserver. Can you help me how can I get the code for TCP server?? Thanks, djs07

@djs07, what you propose is not trivial. You may want to look here:
