Ethernet gateway with W5100
-
Hello,
I recently decide to have some fun with Arduino and MySensors. I am not a programmer so I don know what exactly I'm doing.
I bought on Ebay an Arduino Shield Compatible (not original, neither only for arduino uno r3) and to be sure an ethernet adapter too.
The arduino shield have a Wiznet W5100 chip (which should be almost compatible with MySensors) and the etherent adapte have an ENC28J60 (which is supported but with some modificantions to the UIPE code).
So, i put my shield on the arduino, in the w5100 gateway script enable the softspi and connected my nrf24... When I go to the serial console, it gave me DHCP Failture (once i got connected, on my router i reserved the ip for the arsuino specific mac address) and assigned a static ip of 192.168.1.35 (the one assigned by my router to the mac address). If I give the ip number in the console says that its connected successfully with that ip, but actually it isn't (if i go to my router it says that it isn't connected and the ip is free), even if i go to Domoticz it can't connect to the gateway, neither MyController (i hope it's spelled correctly).
If i do the same for the ENC driver it works great, it even recognise my node (which is a RelayActuator on a nano) which when is connected through the w5100 doesn't show up in the Serial Console.I leave my codes Here so you can look and eventually tell me what is wrong:

You may need to comment out this line. It is preventing soft spi from being enabled
// W5100 Ethernet module SPI enable (optional if using a shield/module that manages SPI_EN signal) #define MY_W5100_SPI_EN 4

// W5100 Ethernet module SPI enable (optional if using a shield/module that manages SPI_EN signal) #define MY_W5100_SPI_EN 4I've tried, moved SI SO SCK from the nrf to the respective analog pins but it won't worked, gave me the same problem

Uh. I forgot to mention that the shield with the Ethernet library works perfectly, so it's isn't broken...

The example W5100 sketch from the arduino IDE should work without any modifications other than to set the ip address you want to use in the line#define MY_IP_ADDRESS
You have made a few changes to the original sketch
on my W5100 gateway the line below remains commented out
// W5100 Ethernet module SPI enable (optional if using a shield/module that manages SPI_EN signal) // #define MY_W5100_SPI_EN 4As does the line
// Enable to UDP //#define MY_USE_UDPand if you are using a static address this line remains commented out as well
// Renewal period if using DHCP //#define MY_IP_RENEWAL_INTERVAL 60000Check your wiring it should be like below. Ignore the extra regulator if not using an amplified radio.
Have you tried to ping the gateway ?
maybe you could post the serial debug info as well, that might give a clue to the problem
People had trouble with some versions of the Arduino IDE causing constant rebooting of the W5100 gateway. See this post

Thanks, now it's working.. probably somethin in the DHCP string!This is the working code:
