Arduino UNO ethernet gateway problem

[ArduiSens]

Hello,
You will solve the problem when compiling your arduino sketch with IDE 1.6.8.
I have compiled my UNO with ethernet shield at top 2 minutes ago and now I have full contact with Domotics (on Synology NAS).
go for it!

Hi!

Investigating this issue it seems that my chinese ethernet shield has the wrong kind of terminating resistors on the ethernet line as described here.
So first I'll try to apply the common fix for that problem (change the resistors) and then I'll get back to you.

Btw thanks for the awesome support!

Do you have a link for that fix? I may try to fix the faulty one that I have

[Misna]

Hi!

Sure. Here is the link: https://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=351477.15

There are many options for the fix but the easiest is defined by klggi on page2 (just solder 2 100ohm resistors on the backside of the ethernet connector).
I'll try to apply this fix tomorrow evening, I'll get back to you on how it went.

On second thought maybe I'll skip the fixing, too much hassle to handle with SMD without proper tools :D

[Misna]

@gohan check the post by klggi. No need to touch the SMD's, just solder 2 regular resistors to the backside of the connector.

Evening!
Happy to report that soldering the two resistors to the back fixed the problem!
So no need to downgrade Arduino IDE etc..

[gohan]

in fact i have that 511 resistor in the back of connector. What resistors did you use?

[Misna]

I used just regular 100Ohm resistors like this

@Misna Added the 2 100Ohms resistors and it seems it is working. Maybe I could order some more shields and complain again they are faulty and have them refunded and do this quick repair :D
At least it would be a little revenge on the many hours I lost with this faulty shield
