Hi,
Has anyone put any thought into getting the RCX to output to an Ethernet
interface?
Of course, what I'm really interested in is an entire TCP/IP
stack- Ethernet hardware, RCX Ethernet driver, IP stack, TCP stack, and
a BSD sockets API, but I don't think such a beast exists.
As a clarification, I'm talking about using the RCX as a standalone network
"appliance", circumventing a PC.
