Let's go:\n\nNone of current official Arduino products has Ethernet conectivity (sadly). So...why keep maintaining this library? If the plan is to be not tied to any specific official Arduino product, then I think this library should be more generic (as it is this: https://github.com/Wiznet/WIZ_Ethernet_Library, at least). Current situation is no sustainable because W5100 is vanishing little by little and currently this library doesn't offer other alternative. It's the same case as TFT library...if it were generic, maybe someone used it (as it is used LiquidCrystal library, for instance) but being tied to an specific chip, i_f this chip is not associated to an official product,_ it's a dead-end.\n\nAnother solution would be offer a new shining product: an Ethernet shield **with TLS integrated chip**  _and SD card_ , (and therefore, modify this library accordingly)...but I suspect this is not the plan\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/arduino-libraries/Ethernet/issues/comments/406085257","html_url":"https://github.com/arduino-libraries/Ethernet/issues/37#issuecomment-406085257","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/arduino-libraries/Ethernet/issues/37","id":406085257,"node_id":"MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDQwNjA4NTI1Nw==","user":{"login":"PaulStoffregen","id":965463,"node_id":"MDQ6VXNlcjk2NTQ2Mw==","avatar_url":"https://avatars1.githubusercontent.com/u/965463?v=4","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/PaulStoffregen","html_url":"https://github.com/PaulStoffregen","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/PaulStoffregen/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/PaulStoffregen/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/PaulStoffregen/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/PaulStoffregen/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/PaulStoffregen/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/PaulStoffregen/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/PaulStoffregen/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/PaulStoffregen/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/PaulStoffregen/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2018-07-18T21:49:31Z","updated_at":"2018-07-18T21:49:31Z","author_association":"COLLABORATOR","body":"Still working on Ethernet, as you can see on my repository.  This is yet another case of \"everything takes longer than anticipated\".\r\n\r\nI have a few more issues people have reported on forums.  Most look like \"user error\" or bad hardware, but still I'd like to investigate a few more before releasing to all Arduino users.\r\n\r\nIf you need this sooner, just ping me and I can wrap this up."}}
