hello people.

For my XBee send and receive data from a server via tcp / ip I need the following hardware?:

  • XBee;
  • Arduino;
  • Arduino Ethernet Shield.

I need some more?? Or I do not need the Arduino as it already has an Arduino Ethernet?

Thank you...

The ethernet shield attaches to the Arduino. So, you pretty much need one of those.

What are you sending data to? What kind of data? How will you connect the XBee to the Arduino?

I have a breadboard with an ATMEGA16 microcontroller and
an XBee connected. The XBee send some information
(some text) to another XBee. This another XBee should
receive and send data through a local network
(tcp / ip).

What I wanna know is how I can connect my
XBee to local network (TCP / IP).

Maybe I can do it with XBee connected to an XBee Shield, and it to Arduino Ethernet Shield and then to Arduino. Is it?
