Hello everyone,

Malcolm, using the W5300 is really easy since it is a TCP stack and
not an ethernet interface. Essentially you write high level command
bytes to the command register (e.g. open, close, send) and
read/write data from/to the w5300 memory buffers. The w3500 takes care
of all the rest.

Nice thing about the W5300 is that it has a TCP/IP stack implemented on the
chip which makes the driver *much* simpler to implement.
