Nice but... Review by Flo: To get Ethernet work with standart Arduino Lib add "pinMode(11,OUTPUT);digitalWrite(11,HIGH);" to setup function. This fixes the floating RESET pin of the Ethernet controller. You should get this in your Wiki.
There could be more "normal" IO pins on the board, not only wireess sockets... (Posted on 10/10/2015)
Good alternative to... Review by Aleksei: Good alternative to original Leonardo board, but price should be slightly cheaper. (Posted on 9/30/2014)
Positive - but sleep issues Review by Brian: Hi,

I have this board for about 1 month now - very pleased with it. Using this board, along with nRF24l01 wirless as the hub for my whole house temperature monitoring system. The system has been up and running for a few weeks now, I've had a couple issues though.
1. Sleep modes. I'd like to put the unit to sleep while it's waiting to take or receive measurements. Though I seem to have issues coming back out of sleep. Not sure yet if the isues are the USB? or the LAN? I've slept the nRF24l01 with no issue, and I've also slept the same LAN chip, though on a shield. very strange.
2. prefer separate USB - or serial port - easier for setup and debug.
any known issues with sleeping this board or the 32u4 chip?

happy customer,
Brian. (Posted on 5/22/2013)
how is the ethernet mapped? is their a library Review by Brian: Hi, trying to find a library that works with this Ethernet mapping - can you help? (Posted on 4/22/2013)
Ethernet mapping... Review by Brian: Board is great, good value - the Ethernet signals are mapped different than the Ethernet shields - is there a library that works with this implementation? (Posted on 4/22/2013)
Great board Review by Fernando: It's very easy to develop ethernet projects with this board! I only miss some gerbers of the board so I can design a shield to use with. (Posted on 1/22/2013)
