[PIC] Using more than one Ethernet controller

[Harold Hallikainen]

I've never tried to use more than one Ethernet controller on a PIC. I'm
still using the old TCP/IP stack. The functions I call do not have a way
to tell which Ethernet controller I'm talking to. Does the new TCP/IP
stack have a way to use more than one controller at the same time?

Thanks!

The harmony stack (V 7.X) does have an network interface ID. This way you should be able to use both a wired and a wireless interface simultaneously.

You can also make alias/virtual network interfaces for the same physical interface and can then have several IP addresses for the same physical interface.

Thanks! I have not yet used the harmony stack. I think the older stack
also supports both wired and wireless, but I don't know if they can run
simultaneously. I've never tried the WiFi code. Can the Harmony stack
support simultaneous operation of two wired Ethernet controllers?

Thanks!

I have not used it either but that is my impression - Several Ethernet (wired or not) can be used together but I am not 100 % sure.
