Switch and LED on and off using the internet

This requires an ethernet shield and an LED connected to pin 6.

Copy the code into a new sketch and upload it to your arduino and then open your web browser to http://192.168.1.177

 

Code

//simple button GET server code to control servo and arduino pin 6
//for use with IDE 1.0
//open serial monitor to see what the arduino receives
//use the \ slash to escape the ” in the html
//for use with W5100 based ethernet shields
//Powering a servo from the arduino usually DOES NOT WORK.
//note that the below bug fix may be required
// http://code.google.com/p/arduino/issues/detail?id=605
