    @Brendan Your video is somewhat adequate for the intended purpose, however, from an engineer's point of view it is lacking in providing pertinent facts. Such as the part number, data sheet, and source…

    Jeremy, thanks for your intro videos. I am just getting started myself in Arduino though I have done some simple electronics projects using Atmel chips. Here is an example using ATTiny13 chips. www.youtube…

    Hi Jeremy

     

    I've built a device (see picture) with an Arduino and Ethernet shield that connects to our Network Monitor (Nagios) and moves an arrow to indicate if any of the computers we monitor are not responding. It all works fine, and I'd like to re-build it as a more finished product. I can build an Arduino on stripboard, but I can't find anywhere that describes how to make build an ethernet shield. Do you now I can build one which I can put on the same stripboard as the Arduino?

     

    Thanks

    Here is a link to design files for a good ethernet shield

    The link from tronixstuff looks good to me!  Though if it were me, I'd probably use an existing ethernet board and just keep with your perfboard arduino in a project box.  One less thing to worry about - though I image building your own is cheaper.

    Here's a W5100 Ethernet "Brick". Still not small, but can hook up to SPI,, About $35 in China.  I could probably get my friend to send you one... Just another possibility if you don't want to build something as complex as this (The Arduino is LESS complex !)...

    as the ENC chip now has a comparable library with the WIZnet chip, your code should run on either which means...

     

    this should work along with the standard support components ENC28J60-I/SP - MICROCHIP ENC28J60-I/SP - IC, ENET CTRL, IEEE 802.3, 10MBPS, DIP28 | Newark element14 Canada

     

    the library is available here https://github.com/ntruchsess/arduino_uip

     

    or you can purchase a small an inexpensive 28J60 board with a header (10pin or 8pin options available) for a few dollars and simply use pin strips to adapt to the strip board

     

    here ENC28J60 Ethernet LAN Module | eBay or simply google "ENC28J60", there are loads of options and i is easy to us

     

    ENC chip is far cheaper than the WIZNet providing you have the memory for the library

    Have fun

     

    Peter
