I need help writing a specific program for the Arduino:

What I would like to have the program do: Servo spins 45 degrees when a button is clicked on a webpage. Also, when a different virtual button is clicked, a signal is sent to a vibrate motor to pulse for a few seconds.

What I have: Arduino Duemilanova, Ethernet shield, servo, vibrate motor

I would be so appreciative if someone could help me as much as possible, even if it may be spoonfeeding.

Thanks! :slight_smile:

Ok, awesome I'm able to control it over the network now :smiley: thanks to zoomkat's script.

I'm running into a problem now however, my arduino with ethernet shield is on my network as 192.168.0.13 and I can control it remotely, but it wont show up in my modem port forward page so I'm not able to control it outside my network.

Any tips? I'm going to keep searching now :stuck_out_tongue:

Just change to a port that is forwaarded.

When I choose port 84, or any port in my modem configuration page, it gives me a drop down menu of which computer to forward it to, but my arduino isn't on the list.

Doesn't it give you the option to specify an address?
What if the Arduino is powered-on when you configure the modem?
What make of modem?

Ah I figured it out. No, it doesn't give an option to select a specific address, but in a separate area of the site there's a ping tool that I just directed at 192.168.0.13 which is the arduino's lan ip, then it magically showed up on the port forward drop down menu. :stuck_out_tongue:

Since everything seems to be working, I guess I'll close this thread.
