Send data to Localhost without Ethernet Shield

Projects General Guidance

Hi Everyone,

I was looking on how to send data from Arduino to my LOCALHOST and read the data with PHP , and found out that I can do that with Ethernet Shield .

Unfortunately, I dont have the Ethernet Shield Board now , is there a way to do that by only using Arduino Uno without the Ethernet Shield ?

Thanks alot

The serial port works well.

Can you please give me a small example on how to send data to port using arduino ?

because i already do that in the PHP side and i read it in arduino , thanks alot

I use Serial.print(), but Serial.write() is more useful for arbitrary data.

Ok but lets say in arduino i did : Serial.write("I love the world");

i go to the PHP side and i do this code :

$port = fopen("COM4", "r+");

echo fread($port,"20");

But it does not work unfortunately :S

You should probably read the documentation on Serial.write and Serial.print, and take a moment to describe your equipment, how the computers are connected, and post ALL the Arduino code, using code tags.

Helpful hints are in the "How to use this forum" post.
