Selecting an ethernet socket

[ScaleRobotics]

Not sure if you saw edtp's code for a PIC18F67J60, but it is another option as well. His project became two articles in Nuts and Volts magazine back in 2007. http://www.picbasic.co.uk/forum/show...8612#post98612

dhouston: The JP011821U looks to be the same as the HR911105A and the SI-60062-F so I think I would be alright buying the SI-60062-F from Rapid.

I did think about those convertor boards but I'm going to have about 15 devices that need ethernet so it would be more cost effective to use PICs with built in ethernet. I'm starting with the ENC28J60 so I can test things out on a breadboard first. I want to learn how to do this too. I don't just want a plugin module that does it all for me. Plus the data speed would be limited by the serial side of it.

And who are you calling old? I'm only 23. :P

scalerobotics: I did see that PDF. I didn't read the whole thing but it looks like its more about the programming side. I'm hoping I can keep it simple (and quick) by sending data over layer2 instead of implementing a TCP/IP stack. In any case I'm quite good at the programming parts. At least on 8-bit PICs anyway.

I'm neary 70 so that was definitely :P
