Hi,
Haven't looked close enough at my e-mail lately. Yes I'm working on
something similar. However mine is not wireless, but I believe that is only
a limit of the wireless controller versus standard controller used. Still
attempting to port the microchip TCP/IP stack to the SDCC.
The PICDEM .net board from microchip has a TCP/IP stack on a 16F877

They also have docs on thier implementation of the TCP/IP stack

Hopefully, all the following links will be helpful. Feel free to ask more
questions, but I may have to suggest talking microchip. Micorchip has
training on their stack, but I do not recommend it. It is really training on
their http server.
