I haven’t gotten back to report my experience after getting W5500 working. Mostly because the majority of my greenhouses that I use these controllers for are empty now…so not running the controller frequently. What I can say so far, have not had an issue yet. I’ve run 1 station every other day or so manually without freezing the controller. Anyone that has followed my case, I typically using several stations at once manually, many times throughout day….freezing would occur seemingly random. Before using W5500, even with this occasional use, I would get a freeze here and there.

So I think I’m good to go…but will know for sure in the spring when I start growing again!

Ray,

Will there be a point where the standard firmware will support both W5500 and ENC28J60 so there is no need for separate firmwares? Just curious
