PIC 18 controller as serial to ethernet bridge

Question

Hi Geeks,

I am planning to use PIC18F6*** serial microntroller for my project serial-ethernet converter. Once I will put my hex code in PIC micro-controller for send recieve serial port data I will use the windows hyper-terminal and for checking the ethernet data is there any application in windows?

If my question is not clear I am ready to explain it better... please let me know.....

Answer 1

Hyper Terminal, or Tera Term; assuming this is just a simple text based exchange from the TCPIP port to the serial port.

Answer 2

You may also want to use Wireshark to view the ethernet data going between your PC and the micro for troubleshooting

Answer 3
