Hello Ron,

I'm sure that the W3150 works perfect and maybe the chip kernel is the same
as in the W5100, but it is clear that this can't be the same silicon. Maybe it is
a good idea to start with the W3150 but our time is very rare and we have
some more things todo so we will wait what is coming on with the W5100.

The best will be if there is an original evaluation board from Wiznet like this
one for the W3100A. So we can be sure that the current problem is our design,
schematics or board layout.

sorry

Hello Ron,

if you get any news concerning any W5100 problems or you have any questions
about the upcoming HTTP driver for it you can also contact forum user "Fritz"
who is mainly involved into all Ethernet driver programming.

Hello Ron,

yes, we also saw the Atmel-Wiznet statements and were very happy and then
very disappointed because nothing happened.

Did you hear anything about an evaluation board from Wiznet populated with
the W5100, something like the W3100 board??

Rolf,
My contact told me that Wiznet is directing customers to use the older board for development. If you were interested in pursuing this solution I would be happy to have a schematic approved by Wiznet engineering and to have some boards fabricated to a mutually agreeable specification. I have a source in China that fabricates boards very inexpensively and fast. As I mentioned our efforts at "instant internet" as advertised by Lantronix have been disappointing at best and to be honest their lack of good tech support has made me a bit angry. If you advertise something as an easy solution shouldn't you expect that you will attract people who are not experts in TCP/IP, etc ?

It is clear to me that your product has significantly better support and a network of users who are kind enough to offer advice to each other.

Thanks.
Ron
