Currently using the MikroE EasyMx Pro V7 with the STM32F407VGT6 processor. I cannot get that to work on the Ethernet side. I'd like to switch to an ST product such as the discovery board for this processor but I'm not sure if it's the right thing for...

I have a development board (STM32F2(4)0x ETH CARD made by Mikroelectronica that has an STM32F407VG MCU and a built-in PHY using the LAN8720A. I cannot seem to figure out what I need to set in Cube MX in order to get the Ethernet port to connect to an...

I'm looking for a simple example of using the CubeMX so I can eventually create an Ethernet tester (a device to test lines and communication). I'm having a bit of trouble finding something that I can understand (not too high a level as I'm a novice w...

Thanks to this forum, I have a USB Virtual Serial Port implemented. It is working however, the Windows Device Manager lists it as "USB Serial Device (COM10)". The manufacturer is listed as Microsoft. The code has "STM32 Virtual ComPort" as the produc...

I'm trying to create a USB / Ethernet testing device. I need to use the USB portion to program an IP address. The mouse example works but I cannot detect it or connect to it. The virtual serial port example also works but a driver needs to be install...

To go with a firmware solution, I believe the NUCLEO-F207ZG will work just fine. There is support from STM32CubeMx so I'll get one of those and try it out. What I also need to select is a development board that can run a Linux kernel which would impl...

Looks like the NUCLEO-F207ZG is what I need. STM32CubeMx supports it and will probably give me the framework that I need to get the Ethernet tester working. My only question about it would be what to use if I want to externally power the board. Ther...

Thanks for the information. I'll look into these boards.There isn't a lot of support for MikroE boards in terms of Ethernet. They do provide libraries but I'm finding that it is such a high level that I have no control over the lower level stuff. Tw...

Thanks Piranha, I grabbed those documents, read the sections you outlined and I have to say, I asked for it, and I got it. I believe I'm a bit more confused than I was when I started. I used STM32CubeMX to generate the shell application. It is showi...

I need to create a USB & Ethernet tester. The USB must be a virtual serial port and Ethernet must initiate pinging. I am using Mikroelectronica products but am having trouble. What ST products are available (Discovery board?) that can do the job?

How to configure STM32F407VG for Ethernet with LAN8720A (PHY) using STM32CubeMX

Is there a simple STM32CubeMX Ethernet Example I could follow to get my feet wet?

How to get the USB product string set in my project to appear in the Windows Device Manager?

Is there an example of creating a USB device for an STM32F407VG that isn't a mouse example or requires a device driver to be installed in order to communicate with it?
