To get started, an Explorer 16 or PICDEM.net™ 2 development board is required.
Alternatively, a PIC32 Starter Kit with a PIC32 I/O Expansion Board can be used.
With the appropriate hardware available, download the Microchip TCP/IP Stack
and follow the Getting Started chapter of the TCP/IP Stack Help.
TCP/IP Stack and Firmware
The Microchip TCP/IP stack and other firmware examples can be downloaded with
the Microchip Application Libraries at http://www.microchip.com/mal. Support for
the MRF24WB0MA PICtail/PICtail Plus Daughter Board is in TCP/IP Stack version
5.25 and later (Microchip Application Libraries v2010-04-28 or later). Once
installed, a link to the TCP/IP Stack Help will be placed in your Start Menu.
