Ethernet support

Each FluidBoard comes with a 10/100 mbit Ethernet adapter that can be used instead of the WiFi connection. The ethernet adapter is auto-sensing.

Ethernet is generally more reliable and has a much lower latency than WiFi. Combined with the fact that you can use wired connections easier in a faraday cage, we think Ethernet is a valuable feature.

We currently do NOT support EtherCAT for servo motors.

Ethernet support is still under heavy development. While we have tested that the hardware works reliably, the software is still in the development phase.
