[RE] ESP Thread Border Router/Zigbee Gateway Sub-Ethernet

Project description

The Ethernet-based setup for the ESP Thread Border Router involves using an ESP32 series SoC as the host, paired with a W5500 Ethernet controller. This setup allows for reliable and high-speed wired network connectivity. The W5500 is a hardwired TCP/IP embedded Ethernet controller that provides easier internet connectivity to embedded systems. It includes a full TCP/IP stack, 10/100 Ethernet MAC, and PHY, and is interfaced with the ESP32 via SPI, offering robust and efficient communication for network applications. Role of W5500 in the Setup The W5500 Ethernet controller is pivotal in the…
