Yes, very helpful. Thanks.

I also came across some SPI WizNet Ethernet devices with built-in stack. A bit pricey, but very cool and compact.

And this post:

EDIT: I just realized you're responsible for my favorite blog! Thanks for sharing all your findings. Incredibly helpful and thorough.

There's an example of networking on the STM32 outside of the Netduino/Arduino arena on Andy's Workshop pages.

 

Hope this is useful,

Not at all. This wouldn't be for commercial use. Purely a hobbyist endeavor. As a secondary benefit, it's nice to be able to develop something that is also cheaper to make than any commercial hardware, but by no means a requirement. Any PCB's offered directly are at cost for what I pay.

By all means. I'm hoping whatever is developed would be cheaper than IR repeater devices that are currently out there.

I've wanted to build it for a while, but also need to wrap up what I've started. I started researching some viable micro's but have had difficulty in finding examples for Ethernet usage outside of Netduino/Arduino. I've yet to look inside any of the support libraries/drivers for the available Ethernet shields / boards.

It would be really nice to see something from Adafruit or Sparkfun for power-line communication, too. Given the low speed of IR signals, I think it would be a great way to handle the task.

Definitely a big thanks for this series on STM8. They've proven to be an invaluable resource to me.

I can confirm the exact same behavior using Adafruit i2c OLED. I have to disconnect / reconnect the SDA pin for it to work properly. I've been fighting this for over an hour now until I ran across this post.

Actually, to work around it, I just do the following as the first part of Main():

            OutputPort p = new OutputPort(Pins.GPIO_PIN_SDA, true);            p.Write(false);            p.Dispose( );
