HI All,
Hope I am posting this in the right section...
I have been playing with the UIPEthernet library and found it to work well except when trying to use it with an LCD display.
Either the LCD displays back squares and ether adapter works or neither work.
Have tried 16x2 and 20x4 displays with same results.
Tried the same sketches using the LCD and ethercard library and all works well except the ether stops responding after a few hours (have tried a heatsink on theh ENC chip as well as extra decoupling capacitors on the power leads,various power supplies,etc with no luck)
Have tried the default pins for LCD as well as the pins specified in my sketch below.
Below is my modified code found on the net,probably not the best in the world but are learning slowly 
Can anyone advise how to resolve this or where I an going wrong ?
Thanks Dave
