Parallax Propeller PropTCP LED On/Off Test with iPhone (web browser)

This is a propeller chip from parallax running the PropTCP beta with mild modifications which allow I/O functions to be performed remotely via the internet. iphone is on wifi in this test, 3g works, but is slow and often fails to connect. This works from any browser.
This is about $40 worth of hardware, not counting the propplug usb programmer.

It *should* work on the ybox 2 hardware platform, but i do not have one to test with.

What server are you using? Is there one built into the internet connection board?

@aaronklapheck Sorry for very late reply. It is using PropTCP, which is a TCP stack implemented in Parallax Spin. All i really did was write some HTML and make it toggle some I/O pins.

Probably the better way to do this now is with the NetWiz (or something like that) chip that Parallax promotes for the Propeller. It has a TCP/IP stack onboard, and I imagine there are web server examples out by now to do all sorts of things. This took around 40% of the Chip's memory I think.

@Evan5659 Do you mean something like the Spinneret Web Server Parallax sells?
