Hi,
I am working on an embedded project that connects to the internet. I dont want to use a PC to connect to net. Is this possible ?
Basically I want to connect to internet in the various possible ways like ADSL, Cable modem etc (all will have an ethernet interface ) then the uC send some data a particular website that can be tracked from any where.
Is it possible to eliminate the PC ?

It's very common to connect to the intenet with an embedded processor. There are several boards based on Microchip PIC processors commercially available that have an Ethernet interface on them. Also, Microchip has a free TCP/IP stack that is well supported with lots of features. There are also some WiFI boards available.

You shouldn't have to do that. Do you have to do that if you connect via a PC?

| OK. In that case you would have to write code that would recognize the log-in request and provide the proper response.
