Hello guy
i am new to this things this is my first project that i have ever done so dont be harsh on me if i have any mistakes
i got an Arduino uno and a Arduino Ethernet Shield Rev3 and i tried to do connect the ethernet shield with the router using a lan cable and on Arduino IDE went to File-> examples -> Ethernet -> DHCPAddressPrinter which i think is tells me my ip address for my Arduino but the output is "Failed to configure Ethernet using DHCP" did some research didnt find anything to work
this is the code which is provided in the IDE :
/*
DHCP-based IP printer
This sketch uses the DHCP extensions to the Ethernet library
to get an IP address via DHCP and print the address obtained.
using an Arduino Wiznet Ethernet shield.
Circuit:
Ethernet shield attached to pins 10, 11, 12, 13

#include <SPI.h>

// Enter a MAC address for your controller below.
// Newer Ethernet shields have a MAC address printed on a sticker on the shield
byte mac[] = {
0x00, 0xAA, 0xBB, 0xCC, 0xDE, 0x02
};
// Initialize the Ethernet client library
// with the IP address and port of the server
// that you want to connect to (port 80 is default for HTTP):
EthernetClient client;
void setup() {
// Open serial communications and wait for port to open:
Serial.begin(9600);
// this check is only needed on the Leonardo:
while (!Serial) {
; // wait for serial port to connect. Needed for native USB port only
}
// start the Ethernet connection:
if (Ethernet.begin(mac) == 0) {
Serial.println("Failed to configure Ethernet using DHCP");
// no point in carrying on, so do nothing forevermore:
for (;; )
;
}
// print your local IP address:
printIPAddress();
}
void loop() {
switch (Ethernet.maintain())
{
case 1:
//renewed fail
Serial.println("Error: renewed fail");
break;
case 2:
//renewed success
Serial.println("Renewed success");
//print your local IP address:
printIPAddress();
break;
case 3:
//rebind fail
Serial.println("Error: rebind fail");
break;
case 4:
//rebind success
Serial.println("Rebind success");
//print your local IP address:
printIPAddress();
break;
default:
//nothing happened
break;
}
}
void printIPAddress()
{
Serial.print("My IP address: ");
for (byte thisByte = 0; thisByte < 4; thisByte++) {
// print the value of each byte of the IP address:
Serial.print(Ethernet.localIP()[thisByte], DEC);
Serial.print(".");
}
Serial.println();
}
The purpose of the project is to send data to a database
thanks for helping
