Suggestion: Ethernet support

Open JD00h opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

I suggest to implement ethernet support, so we don't have to rely on wifi entirely. This could be provideded eg. by a W5500 module, if some advanced networking functionalities should be offloaded from the esp32, or a simple external phy if the internal mac should be used. Another advantage would be an easy power supply in case poe is available.

Thank you for your response.

Using the internal mac might reduce developement effort, as everything is already implemented for wifi and it is likeley that at least manufacturer provided HAL and drivers (if available) are pretty similar.
