If one wants to connect the Netduino to a computer via an output port of a router does one need to use a straight through or crossover ethernet cable?  Power will be supplied via a USB cable.

 

What should I expect to see in windows explorer when a successful connection is made? There is a 2 GB memory card plugged into the side of the Netduino.  Should I see another drive (say K:)?

 

Thanks,

 

Milt

Hi Milt,

 

If you connect a Netduino Plus 2 directly to your PC, you'll be able to use sockets to communicate back and forth.  The easiest way to get that working (with a crossover cable between PC and Netduino Plus 2) is to use a static IP address on both sides.

 

You won't see a new drive, since Netduino isn't a storage device.

 

Chris
