Netduino near? :-)

Hi all...

Just thought I'd post a quick update from my wiz810mj module hacking...

I've just in the last half hour or so successfully uploaded a sketch to a Bare Bones Freeduino (thanks uCHobby!) via an ethernet connection using a Diecimila as a network/serial proxy.

So, by executing a command like this:

arduino-0010/hardware/tools/avr/bin/avrdude -C 
arduino-0010/hardware/tools/avr/etc/avrdude.conf -pm168 -cstk500v1 
-Pnet: 192.168.2.105:7 -D -v -v -v -v 
-Uflash:w:/tmp/build40791.tmp /Blink_edit.hex:i

causes avrdude to connect to the wiznet module attached to the Diecimila and communicate with the "programmer" which is actually the BB board connected to the Dieci's serial rx/tx pins. The Dieci sends the network input to its serial output and returns the serial input to the network output.

At the moment it's a mess of alligator clips, component leads and breadboard but it works--I've got the flashing LED to prove it! :smiley:

The code's not in SVN yet but it's trivial to adapt one of my earlier examples if you can't wait. :slight_smile:

The code, which is unoptimised and has heaps of unnecessary functionality (for this task) compiles to about a 9.9k binary--so I think it might be able to fit into na atmega8 with a bit of work.

Anyway, thought someone might be interested. But for now, it's early and I need to go get some sleep... :slight_smile:

Wow, pretty cool!

I am really itching to get home.
My wiz module will be waiting for me along with the 0.1" adaptor. :slight_smile:
I'll also have a Freeduino so I can try this out.
