# ESP32: ethernet w5500 with plain (HTTP) and SSL (HTTPS)

> Many people ask me for some examples of wired connections; in my mind, the first thing I thought of is the w5500 device, one of the most famous and powerful.

## Components

- **Espressif ESP32** x 1 ([docs](https://www.espressif.com/en/products/socs/esp32))
- **WIZnet WIZ850io** x 1 ([docs](https://docs.wiznet.io/Product/ioModule/WIZ850io))
- Software: **Arduino IDE** ([docs](https://www.arduino.cc/en/software))

## Article

First of all, it must be said that the ESP32 already has a MAC, a TCP / IP stack, and an Arduino network library, but we will still use it with an Ethernet library with W5500 devices since they are the most popular of all and work very well.
