Anaconda WiFi Shield for Arduino
Contents
Introduction
This is LinkSprite Anaconda WiFi Shield for Arduino (everything you see on the picture is included except the Arduino board).
This WiFi Shield has built-in TCP/IP stack and all the WiFi related code. Arduino just needs to configure the WiFi parameters using AT command through the UART, or, user can simply treat the WiFi as a transparent serial port after some offline configuration.

Usage
Hardware Installation
To do the offline configuration, jumping TX to MTX, RX to MRX, removing ATMGEA328, and configure the module through the Arduino USB port using the configuring GUI utility [1]. During power cycle, the parameters are saved.
Programming
The sample code is shown in the following.
Here we are going to explain the setting.
The password is set in the structure named IPNetParaBuffer:
<syntaxhighlight lang="c">
struct NetParaBuffer IPNetParaBuffer[8]={
{0x06,0x01,0x01}, //Link layer Protocol UDP
{0x07,0x02,0x0b,0xb8}, //port number 3000: 0x0b 0xb8; 6000 0x17,0x70
{0x08,0x04,0xc0,0xa8,0x02,0xa6}, //device ip 192.168.2.166
{0x09,0x04,0xc0,0xa8,0x02,0xa5}, //server ip 192.168.2.165
{0x0b,0x01,0x01}, //net mask 255.255.255.0 {0x0c,0x04,0xc0,0xa8,0x02,0x1}, //gateway 192.168.2.1 {0x04,0x01,0x01}, //encrypt mode: {0x05,0x36,0x0d,0x00, //key
0x6c,0x69,0x6e,0x6b,0x73,0x70,0x72,0x69,0x74,0x65,0x30,0x30,0x31, // 0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30, 0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30, 0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30,0x30},
}; </syntaxhighlight>
Encryption mode: 0x04 protocol byte. It’s fixed. Don’t change. 0x01 is the length, and followed by the mode byte. 0x01 means WEP. 0x00 means open. Key: 0x05 protocol byte. 0x36 is the total length of payload. 0x0dis the length of each key.
WEP128BIT needs all 13 bytes. It’s needed to fill all of them. If key is characters, for example, “linksprite001”, then we just need to fill with the ASCII of “0x6c,0x69,0x6e,0x6b,0x73,0x70,0x72,0x69,0x74,0x65,0x30,0x30,0x31”, and fill the rest with 0.
Important Note:
When connect TX to MRX and RX to MTX, i.e., Wifi module is talking to MCU, both the module and the USB are trying to taking to atmega. Please unplug your shield when uploading hex. Otherwise, you will get program timeout issue.
