# pcbcrew-esp32-router

> ESP-IDF Project for Wi-Fi, Ethernet, and 4G/LTE Network Router

Original author: dumtux (source: https://github.com/dumtux/pcbcrew-esp32-router/blob/develop/doc/image/pcbcrew-easymeal-iot-pcba.png)

## Components

- **WIZnet W5500** x 1 ([docs](https://docs.wiznet.io/Product/Chip/Ethernet/W5500))
- **Espressif ESP32** x 1 ([docs](https://www.espressif.com/en/products/socs/esp32))

WIZnet parts: W5500 ([Datasheet](https://docs.wiznet.io/Product/Chip/Ethernet/W5500/datasheet?utm_source=maker&utm_medium=project&utm_campaign=w5500), [product hub](https://maker.wiznet.io/products/w5500/))

### Configure the project

<https://github.com/dumtux/pcbcrew-esp32-router?tab=readme-ov-file#configure-the-project>

```plaintext
idf.py menuconfig
```

In addition to the common configurations for Ethernet, you might also need to update the default value of following configurations:

In the `Example Configuration` menu:

- Set the SSID and password for Wi-Fi ap interface under `Wi-Fi SSID` and `Wi-Fi Password`.

- Set the maximum connection number under `Maximum STA connections`.

### Build, Flash, and Run

<https://github.com/dumtux/pcbcrew-esp32-router?tab=readme-ov-file#build-flash-and-run>

Build the web frontend in the [`webapp/`](https://github.com/dumtux/pcbcrew-esp32-router/blob/develop/webapp) folder. For more details, read this blog post: ["Creating A Svelte Web Application For ESP32"](https://pcbcrew.com/blog/create-a-svelte-webapp-for-esp32)

Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output:

```plaintext
idf.py -p PORT build flash monitor
```
