I would like make port A0-A4, B0-B4 ,C0-C4, D0-D4 to turn it on (high) or off ( low) or read those port the value. I hope myself clear. I am not sure if we called it as web server or just remote the hub. I was hope someone has done this. I would like to see sample codes.

Sorry Reid, mixed communications !

By port number redirection I am referring to the TCP/IP port. EG HTTP uses port 80, and so on.

The ethernet Mini appears to output raw packet data, which would require further desemination before you can get to the data you require. Although I don't have an ethernet Mini and may be speaking out of turn, it will demand some additional data processing to be applied before you get down to the basic transactions and connection handling.

Have you looked into HTTP ?

I guess from your message that you want to make some sort of remote control system, where you can send a command from a remote web connected PC, possibly via a browser, to interact with the hardware attached to the ethernet mini.

You could do this a number of ways, from using HTTP to TFTP, SNMP could also work, but I would suggest looking into those protocols more closely to find the one best suited to the functionality you are looking for.

Of course, you could easily implement your own protocol once you are handling TCP/IP or UDP directly, but it is usually a good idea to stick with accepted protocols over the internet.

If you can explain more about the type of functionality you need, and if it needs to operate in both directions, we might be able to pin things down more precisely
