Enable Broadcast

[TobyTredger]

Thank you so much for this lib. It's the only one I can get working with a pi pico.

However I really need broadcast for my project and I know it's disabled.

What would be required to enable reception of broadcast packets?

I've tried enabling broadcast packages in filtering using this

writeReg(ERXFCON, ERXFCON_BCEN|ERXFCON_UCEN|ERXFCON_CRCEN|ERXFCON_PMEN);

And i've checked the

#define UIP_CONF_BROADCAST 1

I'm still not getting anything when sending broadcast data on the network.

I've tried binding to xx.xx.xx.255 and 0.0.0.0.

Any ideas would be very much appreciated. :)

with PI Pico Arduino use the library bundled with the RP2040 Arduino core

[TobyTredger]

That doesn't help.

I can get an IP address, but I don't get anything through using the TCP Server. Even just using the basic example code.

[JAndrassy]

it doesn't help for EthernetENC broadcast or for lwip_ens28j60?

[TobyTredger]

I followed this doc to get ethernet setup and a tcp server running. Although I can get an ip, I can't get anything through on the server.

maybe because your sketch expects proper server.available() and that library only has server.accept() (and available() works as accept()).

[TobyTredger]

Thanks for the reply. I tried that. Using server.accept didn’t help.

how could it. that is the problem. but you can work around it modifying the sketch. don't destroy the client returned by accept(), because that closes the connection

[TobyTredger]

This gives me nothing

    EthernetClient client = tcp.accept();

    if (client) {
        Serial.println("CONNECTION.");

I setup using this globaly.

ArduinoENC28J60lwIP Ethernet = ArduinoENC28J60lwIP();

Then:

Ethernet.begin(artnetNodeConfig.mac, {192,168,1,71}, gateway, gateway, artnetNodeConfig.mask);

[JAndrassy]

EthernetClient client = tcp.accept(); is you problem. make client global and only call accept if the client is disconnected
