Hi.

Actually I have a working project with arduinio + yun shield. To simplify the explanation, I use a web browser to the yun IP, arduino makes some calculations and sends an IR signal.
I need to reduce the size of the board, so I ordered some moteinos for testing.

Sorry for the this basic question, but how can I connect moteino to ethernet?

The idea is to have 1 moteino connected to my home network, this will receive the command from browser, make the calculations and send to another moteino information so this new one can transmit IR signal.

Thanks

Javier.

Hello Javi.
How about using one of those cheap ESP8266 Wifi module to make your Moteino get data from the net and then make something happen on a node? Lots of tutorials on google on how to connect it to an arduino. And it is 3.3v so it's even easier to connect to a Moteino

Thanks Felix and Luis.

@Felix.. Yes I found both threads but for me with little experience, couldn't understand them

@Luis.. I will try to google some info about ESP8266.
