(feature request) guide for ethernet

[softhack007]

Would be nice if some kind soul who has ethernet up and running with WLED would make a short guide for ethernet setup.

• list of boards supported (you can take that directly from the source code)
• how to switch to ethernet, after first connecting to WLED-AP
• static IP, or dynamic IP
• notes / fallacies / pitfalls,
• limitations and caveats for specific boards (if possible)
• GPIO limitations (some pins are not usable)

[softhack007]

List of boards according to source code:

• ABC! WLED V43 & compatible
• ESP32-POE
• ESP32Deux
• KIT-VE
• QuinLED-Dig-Octa & T-ETH-POE
• QuinLED-ESP32
• Serg74-ETH32
• TwilightLord-ESP32
• WESP32
• WT32-ETH01

@scottrbailey or @dosipod or @wled-faq could you help, please?

I do not own Ethernet board so could not

[wled-faq]

I could add Info, but I only have my boards, therefore some questions:

• "how to switch to ethernet, after first connecting to WLED-AP" --> Is there any issues/complications? I think I just select etehrnet Type and plug LAN cable, then communictae via LAN IP
• "static IP, or dynamic IP" --> General advatages/drawbacks or there is some special to WLED?
• "notes / fallacies / pitfalls" --> For example?

Current docs do show what pins aren't available and what controllers are supported. There's also an explanation about how to select your board from the settings page. I think this is resolved?

@softhack007 do you agree?

@blazoncek ok for me to close this ticket now. Thanks @wled-faq for improving the docs 🥇
