While shopping "China" I discovered these little ENC28J60 modules and thought I'd give them a shot.

They work perfectly with Harrison's Propeller Webserver, so I've added them to stock.
I've got a few on hand that can ship today from Ohio, or you can get them a little cheaper direct from HK.

It's an inexpensive way to add Internet to a Propeller, like the old E-net did for the Propeller Platform.

    Trust me, I've been on the hunt for just such an item. A cheap WiFi version of the same adapter would be a real winner.

    Don't those get really hot? I think they use something like 6 times the juice a prop uses?

    Is there a way to make these play nice with batteries apps? Like power over ethernet of something?

    I don't know details in this area, just that mine was real hot, I thought I had it hooked up wrong.

    I had my test unit hooked up for three hours straight. No heat detected on the Quickstart regulator or the unit itself.
