Release notes

WiShield library and TCP/IP stack files for the WiShield 1.0 wireless devices

Version 1.2.1

Changes:

Version 1.2.0

Changes:

Fixed buffer overflow issue
Added files for WiServer implementation
Removed stray debug prints from source code
Made sketches uniform to existing examples
Added missing implementation for setURL function
Adding support for using Digital pin 8 on Arduino as the interrupt pin for WiShield
Added function for base64 encoding
Fixing IP address assignment macro

New features:

Adding sample SocketApp sketch to demonstrate using WiShield for socket communication
Adding UDPApp sketch to demonstarte use of UDP protocol for communication

Known issues:

Version 1.1.0

Changes:

The WiShield library now uses a new, more stable TCP/IP stack. The library includes a port of the uIP stack
Server and client modes supported in the TCP/IP stack
The limitation of 446 bytes is removed. Larger sized packets can be transmitted and received but will have to be broken down into smaller sized chunks which are <= 346 bytes
Sample WebServer sketch modified to use the new stack to serve up simple webpages
The stack provides an implementation of the socket interface which can be used to transmit or receive data

New features:

Sample WebClient sketch added which demonstrates the operation of sending status updates to a Twitter.com account
ARP client added to periodically send ARP packets to the AP. This was done to prevent certain APs from disconnecting the device due to long periods of inactivity

Known issues:

Version 1.0.0

The release includes:

Driver for ZeroG G2100 series WiFi device (for download instructions, see: http://asynclabs.com/wiki/)
Simplified TCP/IP stack for use with the WiShield
Sample WebServer sketch demonstrating the implementation of a simple webserver to serve up a webpage when requested from a client browser application
Sample LEDControl sketch demonstrating the implementation of a control application using the webserver mode of the WiShield library.
