Hi Phil, LWIP is ok in the short term if you are in a hurry. I can publish the LWIP "sysarch" we used to use. Unfortunately the LWIP code is a bit of a mess, so this isn't a long term solution. These is a LWIPV6 derivative with IPV6 support but I haven't looked at this as it uses the GPL license which confuses the licensing for commercial products based on Prex. I agree with Ivo and Dmitriy that a different IP stack is the best solution. I would further propose focusing on IPV6 only. It is a much better fit for embedded devices as by design the network configuration is automatic. We moved from LWIP to a small UDP only IPV6 stack that we wrote in house in one man week. This has solved many issues we had with network configuration, performance, etc. Andrew ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
