Trouble with Ethernet Shield as a client

Hello,

I had this sketch running successfully for 3 days then it stopped working. All sketches I try now that are clients using the ethernet shield do not work. I can send a twitter using the basic twitter example though.

I am using Arduino 17 to build these sketches. Am I running into a memory issue? Thanks for the help. I am a newb.

#include <Ethernet.h>
#include <Twitter.h>

// these are the LED definitions
int greenPin = 8; // Green LED connected to digital pin 8. indicates intenet is working
int redPin = 9; // Red LED connected to digital pin 9. indicates internet is not working
int whitePin = 7; // white LED connected to digital pin 7. indicates arduino is testing the internet connection

// unsigned long time; // this defines the time variable

byte mac[] = { 0xDE, 0xAD, 0xBE, 0xEF, 0xFE, 0xED };
byte ip[] = { 192, 168, 0, 35 };
byte gateway[] = { 192, 168, 0, 1 };
byte subnet[] = { 255, 255, 0, 0 };

byte server[] = {
64, 233, 187, 99 }; // Google
// byte server[] = { 69, 147, 76, 15 }; // Yahoo

Client client(server, 80);

// this is the twitter definition
Twitter twitter("TwitterUsername:TwitterPassword");
// char msg[] = "This is the 13th Test. I am the Arduino DSL internet Watchdog!!";

void setup()
{
pinMode(greenPin, OUTPUT); // sets the digital pin as output
pinMode(redPin, OUTPUT); // sets the digital pin as output
pinMode(whitePin, OUTPUT); // sets the digital pin as output
Ethernet.begin(mac, ip, gateway, subnet);
Serial.begin(9600);
delay(1000);
}

void loop()
{
digitalWrite(whitePin, HIGH); // Sets the white LED on
Serial.println();
Serial.println("Testing your Internet connection...");

if (client.connect()) {
Serial.println("You are connected to the Internet");
// Serial.print("Time: ");
// time = millis();
// Serial.println(time); //prints time since program started
delay(1000); // wait a second so as not to send massive amounts of data
Serial.println("Connecting to Twitter...");
if (twitter.post("The house is online!")) {
int status = twitter.wait();
if (status == 200) {
Serial.println("Tweet Successful!!");
digitalWrite(redPin, LOW); // sets the red LED off
digitalWrite(greenPin, HIGH); // sets the Green LED on
client.stop();
digitalWrite(whitePin, LOW); // sets the white LED off
delay(150000); // delays restart of program after success for 2.5 minutes
}
}
}
else {
Serial.println("You are not connected to the Internet!");
digitalWrite(greenPin, LOW); // sets the Green LED off
digitalWrite(redPin, HIGH); // sets the red LED on
delay(500); // waits for half a second
client.stop();
digitalWrite(whitePin, LOW); // sets the white led off
delay(150000); // delays restart of the program after failure for 2.5 minutes
}
}

Are you sure about that ip?

byte server[] = { 64, 233, 187, 99 }; // Google

That doesn't ping for me.

Also, when posting code if you use the # icon it makes it much easier to read :wink:

Thank you! I can't believe I overlooked that. It is the IP address provided in the example code and I took it as gospel.

Thanks!!!
