EthernetENC library ESP32 issues

Hi there,

I am trying to use an ESP32 with the EthernetENC library. The script is an adapted version of the original Ethernet/WebServer:


/*
  Web Server

 A simple web server that shows the value of the analog input pins.
 using an Arduino Wiznet Ethernet shield.

 Circuit:
 * Ethernet shield attached to pins 10, 11, 12, 13
 * Analog inputs attached to pins A0 through A5 (optional)

// Enter a MAC address and IP address for your controller below.
// The IP address will be dependent on your local network:
byte mac[] = {
  0xDE, 0xAD, 0xBE, 0xEF, 0xFE, 0xED
};
IPAddress ip(192, 168, 100, 198);

// Initialize the Ethernet server library
// with the IP address and port you want to use
// (port 80 is default for HTTP):
EthernetServer server(80);

void mdelay(unsigned long milliseconds) {
  const unsigned d = 1;
  while (milliseconds > d) {
    Ethernet.maintain();
    delay(d);
    milliseconds -= d;
  }
  Ethernet.maintain();
  delay(milliseconds);
}

  // You can use Ethernet.init(pin) to configure the CS pin
  //Ethernet.init(10);  // Most Arduino shields

  while (!Serial) {
    ; // wait for serial port to connect. Needed for native USB port only
  }
  Serial.println("Ethernet WebServer Example");

  // start the Ethernet connection and the server:
  Ethernet.begin(mac, ip);

  // Check for Ethernet hardware present
  if (Ethernet.hardwareStatus() == EthernetNoHardware) {
    Serial.println("Ethernet shield was not found.  Sorry, can't run without hardware. :(");
    while (true) {
      mdelay(1); // do nothing, no point running without Ethernet hardware
    }
  }
//  if (Ethernet.linkStatus() == LinkOFF) {
//    delay(1000);
//    if (Ethernet.linkStatus() == LinkOFF) {
//      Serial.println("Ethernet cable is not connected.");
//    }
//  }
  while (Ethernet.linkStatus() == LinkOFF) {
    Serial.println("Ethernet cable is not connected.");
    mdelay(500);
  }
  Serial.println("Ethernet cable connected!");

  // start the server
  server.begin();
  Serial.print("server is at ");
  Serial.println(Ethernet.localIP());
}


void loop() {
  // listen for incoming clients
  EthernetClient client = server.available();
  if (client) {
    Serial.println("new client");
    // an http request ends with a blank line
    boolean currentLineIsBlank = true;
    while (client.connected()) {
      if (client.available()) {
        char c = client.read();
        Serial.write(c);
        // if you've gotten to the end of the line (received a newline
        // character) and the line is blank, the http request has ended,
        // so you can send a reply
        if (c == '\n' && currentLineIsBlank) {
          // send a standard http response header
          client.println("HTTP/1.1 200 OK");
          client.println("Content-Type: text/html");
          client.println("Connection: close");  // the connection will be closed after completion of the response
          client.println("Refresh: 5");  // refresh the page automatically every 5 sec
          client.println();
          client.println("<!DOCTYPE HTML>");
          client.println("<html>");
          // output the value of each analog input pin
          for (int analogChannel = 0; analogChannel < 6; analogChannel++) {
            int sensorReading = analogRead(analogChannel);
            client.print("analog input ");
            client.print(analogChannel);
            client.print(" is ");
            client.print(sensorReading);
            client.println("<br />");
          }
          client.println("</html>");
          break;
        }
        if (c == '\n') {
          // you're starting a new line
          currentLineIsBlank = true;
        } else if (c != '\r') {
          // you've gotten a character on the current line
          currentLineIsBlank = false;
        }
      }
    }
    // give the web browser time to receive the data
    mdelay(1);
    // close the connection:
    client.stop();
    Serial.println("client disconnected");
  }
}

The pin connections are the following:

MOSI: 23
MISO: 19
SCK: 18
CS: 5

When running the script, I get the following output:

Ethernet WebServer Example
Ethernet cable is not connected.
Ethernet cable connected!
server is at 192.168.100.198

However, the device hasn't really acquired an IP. The device is not showing up when logging into the router's admin page, and the web page is not accessible.

Any clues would be much appreciated!

try the WebClient example. it has more diagnostics.

Hi @Juraj , I tried the WebClient and the code seems to be getting stuck in the call to Ethernet.begin(mac).

UPDATE: It is possibly something to do with the ESP32 module I was using. I tried a different ESP32 and it works just fine.

Thanks anyways!
