May 2013 I ordered and received two of these. They are W5100 chip based mot ENC28J60 chip set and very different than the pictured item in layout. Found drivers for very similar board via Google Loren

I purchased this item but had received a shield with the Wiznet w5100 chip. However, it seems to be defective & none of the standard Arduino Ethernet samples work. The Tx LED does not blink.

Be Happy**The Wiznet chipset is the "official" shield and the one recommended by Simon Monk in his book "Programming Arduino". The ENC chip is less capable.You may be using example programs written for the ENC chip set. Simon Monk has program examples that work with you chips

I recently bought this item, and none of the sample Arduino ethernet code work. The Tx LED never blinks. Is this a defective product?

Can someone please upload sample code? I don't get it to work properly :-(

Since you're not allowed to post "links", here's a youtube vid that has a link to a tutorial with sample code. In order to set this up, you're going to need to install a library for the ethernet controller. The linked tutorial will go over this. Hope this helps.

Nice price. These are a lot more expensive elsewhere.

Good use in home automation. No needed for extra power if used a power injecton board before that.

Would be nice if this had a built-in wi-fi adapter instead of the RJ45. Then it would be really powerful, also a small built-in 120V PS.

Hey FPVking, just wondering .. are you saying it can be powered by POE (power over ethernet) ? Cause that would be cool!! www.link also assume its only 10Mb .. not that thats a problem.. just wondering..

Looking at the PCB, I don't believe this particular shield can be powered via POE at least not natively. Compared to the Wiznet W5100 based controller, this ENC28J60 based shield is a basic, no frills, ethernet controller. IMO, for a few dollars more ($20) you can find the Wiznet ones on that popular auction site. Not only is it 10/100, but it also has an on-board micro SD card slot.
