I am having issues uploading sketch while the ethernet shield is plugged, it says:
avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x00
I found many post about power on reset problem, but my issue is that i cant upload at all while the shield is on.
The shield is the "2013 R3 Ethernet W5100 Network Shield For Arduino UNO Mega 2560 1280 328" by HobbyComponents.
Are there any solution?
Found the solution by mmichielin in the thread: "avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding"
Hey, I solved the problem and fixed my arduino board!
Simply:
- plug the board to the PC while keeping pressed the reset button on the board
- compile and upload to the arduino a simple sketch un-pressing the reset button as soon as the IDE says "binary sketch size xxx...."
I had to try more times to find the exact moment on which un-press the reset button.
Thanks to an italian arduino-enthusiast who suggest me this procedure.
Ciao
Works perfectly, but instead of the board's reset button, use the shield's button.
