Arduino Uno Ethernet with Wifly shield

Post by vietfella »

Hi all,

Finally got my Arduino Ethernet working, so my main purpose for this is to try to create a wireless datalogger. http://www.ladyada.net/learn/arduino/ethfiles.html

I found a useful tutorial on Adafruit showing how to set up a SD file web browse using the ethernet shield. I would like to swap out the ethernet function with a wifi option.

The issue is that the ethernet shield uses CS pin 10 from the spi and the Wifly shield uses pin 10 to communicate to the Wifi. Is is possible to turn off the ethernet option and use the wifly since it is almost a drop in replacement for the ethernet library?

I had tried using the adafruit datalogger shield but it wasn't compatible with the SD+ethernet sketch.

thanks,
Tony
