<![CDATA[ESP32 Wired (no WiFi)]]>Would it be possible to add support for ESP32 systems with ETH interfaces connected to Mysensors? For example LAN8720 or others. Or if it's something that's quite trivial - please give me some tips on how to run such a set.

Interestingly, this setup allows for dual IP addresses, with one for the Ethernet connection and another for Wi-Fi, which can be useful in certain applications.

Thank you for sharing your success, I am sure there will be others who have an interest in this type of set up.

All you need to do is initialize the PHY for ESP32 using the ETH.h library from the Espresiff package. Then it's a matter of eliminating the Wi-Fi initialization that is automatically started for ESP32. Interestingly, you can use two IP addresses at the same time, one from the PHY and the other from Wi-Fi - of course, Mysensors responds to both. If anyone is interested in the solution - I invite you to talk. I started Mysensors on the PHY of the Kicony KC868-A16 board and it works great.
