arduino wi-fi shield

I am @littlebirdceo .

The Little Bird Brain was made to scratch a need I had.

It's called the Bird Brain ($192USD) because it has a fair bit of brains which you do
not find in other solutions such as:

  • Wireless 802.11b, 802.11g
  • Support for the following ARP, UDP, TCP, Telnet, ICMP, SNMP, DHCP, BOOTP, Auto IP, HTTP, SMTP, and TFTP protocols
  • An internal WebServer (with 1.2 MB Storage), SNMP (read only)
  • Telnet Login
    ... and more.

To contrast the Asynclabs shield can't even handle large packets. Don't get me wrong I'm a huge fan of the Asynlabs shield, and have been playing with it since it arrived last week.

The Asynclabs shield will do 90% of what people need in their projects, and the setup process was rather simple. They should be commended for bringing such a handy shield to the market.

Just my 2c.

Cheers,

Marcus
