ENC28J60 RJ45 Ethernet LAN Network Module on raspberry pi0?

What about software?
Thanks.

Although this is advertised as an Arduino board, and Amazon do not seem to provide instructions, there are Arduino instructions here: http://www.instructables.com/id/Add-Eth ... ess-than-/

You will have to translate the Arduino Pins to Pi GPIO pins, and modify the code shown to work with the Pi libraries. All the Arduino code required should be available with a bit of looking on the internet.

Now, whether it is a good idea to try this - translating Arduino stuff - is a different question. Luckily someone else has worked this out here: http://raspi.tv/2015/ethernet-on-pi-zer ... on-your-pi

There may be other solutions - try looking on the internet

There's already an overlay in /boot/overlays for the ENC28J60.

Add

Code: Select all

dtoverlay=enc28j60,int_pin=25,speed=12000000

to /boot/config.txt
That uses CE0 on /dev/spidev0

If you change things around you'll need to build a new DTS/DTB.

It only runs at 10Mbps but it supports IPv6. It does work. They're cheaper from eBay.

Yes, I have this working on a RPi 2 running Jessie. I will try it on a zero in a few days. No additional software is needed. The board uses the SPI interface and the wiring is:

Board -> RPi
GND -> GND (Pin 20)
VCC -> 3.3V (Pin 17)
CS -> CE0 (Pin 24)
SCK -> SCLK (Pin 23)
SI -> MOSI (Pin 19)
SO -> MISO (Pin 21)
INT -> GPIO 25 (Pin 22)

To load the driver edit /boot/config.txt:
> sudo nano /boot/config.txt

and add at the bottom of the file:
# ENC28J60 Ethernet module
dtoverlay=enc28j60

Save and exit, reboot. After the reboot, execute ifconfig, you should see eth1 with a IPV4 and IPV6 address.

That's it!

Next, add the ethernet interface, edit /etc/network/interfaces:
> sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces

and add:
# ENC28J60 module
iface eth1 inet dhcp

after the iface eth0 inet dhcp line.

Not necessary on the Zero. Which makes configuring it easy, since you only need to edit config.txt

Removed interfaces edit from post.
