I think you can also use the avr board from reprap with goaran's software. I suggest to add a crc byte to goaran's code to check communication integrity. I have here in my basket a avr-net-io board (which is popular in Germany) http://www.pollin.de/shop/dt/MTQ5OTgxOTk-/Bausaetze_Module/Bausaetze/Bausatz_AVR_NET_IO.html http://www.mikrocontroller.net/articles/AVR_Net-IO_Bausatz_von_Pollin Here is code to use it as an arduino. http://code.google.com/p/avr-netino/ Yesterday evening I copied the ethersex code http://www.ethersex.de/index.php/Main_Page and I was able to compile it on my linux box. Many features. Because of networking you do not need a serial port on LCNC. (ENC28J60 based arduino shield are also available.)
