Hi,

I am looking into setting up a web server using the UNO32 and the chipKit WiFi Shield. There is a good example of what I require using the Arduino WiFi Shield ( http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/WiFiWebServer ) but I could not find one for the chipKit WiFi Shield. Can anyone point me in the right direction - Thanks

Hello Bonjelo,

Check out the demos that are included with the Network Libraries for the chipKIT WiFi. You can find a link to the download here:

I just received my Wifi Shield today and I did download the libraries as mentioned in the first response. I have the latest released compiler installed (20120903). Not sure yet what my end goal is for this configuration, maybe have it control my Rover and maybe have a webserver that allows me to control the rover from any pc on my network, so I tried loading ChipKitWebServer example program and compile it.

I received the error:

In file included from C:\Users\Kurt\Documents\mpide\libraries\chipKITEthernet\utility\/TCPIP Stack/TCPIP.h:295:0,
                 from C:\Users\Kurt\Documents\mpide\libraries\chipKITEthernet\utility\ARP.c:64:
C:\Users\Kurt\Documents\mpide\libraries\chipKITEthernet\utility/TCPIP Stack/MAC.h:90:3: error: #error No Ethernet/WiFi controller defined in HardwareProfile.h. Defines for an ENC28J60, ENC424J600/624J600, or WiFi MRF24WB10 must be present.

Suggestions?

Thanks Kurt

P.S. - The error status text is really small on my machine for this release, which is hard for me to read. Is there a setting for what font or at least the size to use here?

Thanks Again

Hello KurtE,

Try using the example for the WiFiTCPEchoServer in the DWIFIcK library.

Thanks, I configured the above test program to my network and it now appears to run and is now waiting for a connect. I now just need to find or build a client to talk to it...

Hello KurtE,

Did you get your program to run? I'm asking because I'm using the codes from the examples but I can't ge tmy program to connect with the TCPEchoClient...
