I have an Arduino UNO board and an Arduino Ethernet Board, I pile those up.
Can anyone tell me ways how to test whether my Ethernet Board works well or not? I mean it can send and receive data properly. I am sorry if the question is too easy because It is my first time to use the Ethernet Board and I would like to know how it works.
Thank you very much.
Simple web server code.
//zoomkat 4-1-12
//simple button GET for servo and pin 5
//for use with IDE 1.0
//open serial monitor to see what the arduino receives
//use the \ slash to escape the " in the html, or use ' instead of "
//address will look like http://192.168.1.102:84 when submited
//for use with W5100 based ethernet shields
#include <SPI.h>
#include <Ethernet.h>
#include <Servo.h>
Servo myservo; // create servo object to control a servo
byte mac[] = { 0xDE, 0xAD, 0xBE, 0xEF, 0xFE, 0xED }; //physical mac address
byte ip[] = { 192, 168, 1, 102 }; // ip in lan
byte gateway[] = { 192, 168, 1, 1 }; // internet access via router
byte subnet[] = { 255, 255, 255, 0 }; //subnet mask
EthernetServer server(84); //server port
String readString;
//////////////////////
void setup(){
pinMode(5, OUTPUT); //pin selected to control
//start Ethernet
Ethernet.begin(mac, ip, gateway, subnet);
server.begin();
myservo.write(90); //set initial servo position if desired
myservo.attach(7); //the pin for the servo control
//enable serial data print
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println("server servo/pin 5 test 1.0"); // so I can keep track of what is loaded
}
void loop(){
// Create a client connection
EthernetClient client = server.available();
if (client) {
while (client.connected()) {
if (client.available()) {
char c = client.read();
//read char by char HTTP request
if (readString.length() < 100) {
//store characters to string
readString += c;
//Serial.print(c);
}
//if HTTP request has ended
if (c == '\n') {
///////////////

}
//clearing string for next read

}

After downloading the Arduino software, go to File > Examples > Ethernet. You’ll find a bunch of examples that you can run to test your board. If you have a network in the house, try connecting the Arduino board to one of the ports of the network, and connect to the same network from your computer.
In the example programs, set an appropriate IP address for the Arduino and set the Gateway IP. Make sure to put the MAC address of the Ethernet Shield as well instead of what you have in the example (You’ll find a sticker on the Shield with the MAC Address).
When both are connected to the network, use your computer to connect to the Arudino by using a program like Putty and to Telnet the Arudino (put it’s IP).
I’ve used the ChatServer program to test my Arduino board last week. Let me know if you need further help.
