WifiPlusClick¶
This library implements the functionality exposed by a WifiPlusClick module from MikroElektronika (http://www.mikroe.com/click/wifi-plus/).
The WifiPlusClick module is an easy to handle module which provides access to up to 8 simultaneous socket objects - which is an an important aspect when you want to implement your own web server.
When I first started with the more commonly used Wifly module, I found out that the Wifly module does not reliably serve webpages which include other resources like images, JavaScript files or CSS files. The root cause seems to be the limitation that Wifly is only able to handle a single socket at this time. So I searched for an alternative and found this (actually cheaper) alternative :
WifiPlusClick Module¶
However, also this module comes with its own limitations. The WifiPlusClick Modules interface does not allow to use broadcasting or multicasting on UDP sockets.
NOTE¶
The implementation of the Sockets in this library is still not completely tested. I only tested the TCP part of the sockets. Please let me know what your experiences are when using the library.
