Hello,

I am jus wondering how i would connect a Electret Microphone Amplifier - MAX4466 to my Arduino UNO

And also how i could connect my Arduino Uno to the internet?

Hello,

Electret Microphone Amplifier - MAX4466 with Adjustable Gain : ID 1063 : Adafruit Industries, Unique & fun DIY electronics and kits

And also how i could connect my Arduino Uno to the internet?

Do you want to connect it in a different way to how they show you on the Adafruit website?

For internet connection, should this be wired or wireless? What information do you wish to send, and where?

Could you please tell me the wired and wireless connection methods?

Arduino is going to be outputting CSV data to the pc

A website will be grabbing the CSV data

Do you intend to use a wireless Ethernet card or a card requiring a cable to connect to the Internet?

For wired, you need an ethernet shield or breakout board. This will need to be connected to your network or router with an ethernet cable. For wireless, you need a wifi shield or breakout board. These have become very inexpensive recently with the introduction of esp8266 modules.

Why do you need a pc involved? Why not sent the data from the Arduino direct to the website? If you intend to connect the Arduino to a pc, then you do not need an ethnet or wifi shield. The Arduino can communicate to the pc with its serial connection, and the pc can then upload to the web. With this method, you will need to find some suitable software to do this, or write some yourself.

What data will be uploaded to the web? If it is audio recording then the Arduino may not be fast enough to both continuously record and send data to the web. If it is sound level measurements data, then you have the wrong kind of microphone breakout board for that, although it should be possible for the Arduino to turn audio data into sound level measurements with some extra code.

If the point is in fact, to avoid using a PC (laptop) for the process, then the combination of Arduino and Ethernet card is somewhat passé now, as an ESP8266 module will generally do the whole job on its own.
