What's the best/cheapest Ethernet for RP2040?

[LeSuedois]

Hello everybody,
I need Ethernet for a project, what type of ethernet can you advice for the RP2040?

The price and stock is an argument since I have to make like 100 devices...

Thank you for your advices,
Simon

with Arduino library there are only two options: one of the Wiznet W5x00 chips series with the Arduino Ethernet library or ENC28j60 with my EthernetENC library.

Hello @JAndrassy thank you for your reply, I found one of these in my stock and give it a try!

Try the combined W5500-EVB-Pico, W5100S-EVB-Pico or WIZnet Ethernet HAT

They are supported by Ethernet_Generic, EthernetWebServer, EthernetWebServer_SSL, etc. libraries

Hello @khoih-prog thank you for your reply. This cards are clearly my first choice! Sad to say that the european Distributor is out of stock and can't announce any lead time ;(

P.s. sorry for the issue I created recently on one of your repos. I swear I will never create a issue after 10 pm... My bad..
