Interrupt pin

in the Wiz chip scenario, is there any value in me linking the INT pin at all? Is that ever likely to be used in the core code?

(I have no idea about what the normal IP stack is like) In preference to using Interrupts I’m sure we all agree that making the behavior the same with the full netmf network sockets is best.

using or not using INT has nothing to do with the compatibility of .NET sockets.

You can see that it is 100% compatible now.
Will we use INT in future? Not necessary but it is a good idea to keep this pin connected in your design in case we add it.
