Network / Internet connection SparkFun Arduino Ethernet Shield and equipped with powerful Ethernet use the library!

In this tutorial, we cover how to get up and running with SparkFun Ethernet Shield. Requirements, hardware, assembly, and all programming will be covered. Follow along, and your Arduino Twitter skimming and hosting web pages should be no time!
Necessity
In addition to the slope, you get the most from SparkFun Shield Ethernet will be a few more bits and pieces:
Header (and soldering tools)
Heading for your Arduino is a solid, providing electrical connection with the shield. If you've got a few options when it comes to headers, but most of the slope I recommend stacking headers. This means you dolls, or even other shield, plug in the unused pins to Arduino.

You will need to solder the slopes of the header. So, if you are not one already, I have a good, inexpensive soldering iron, solder, and not want to say anything. If a stand is not hurt, and it can save your carpet. (More on this in the assembly section).
Another Ethernet cable
The Shield your Ethernet RJ45 jack and a router or switch will be in the interface. CAT5, CAT6, really should be doing something with a pair of RJ45 terminations. 1, 3, 5, or 10 feet - in a length that works best for you. Or you can check out the best fit for your own cable!

μSD card (optional)
You can quickly find out that the Ethernet-equipped Arduino Arduino sketch will use a big chunk of RAM and flash. If you host Web pages, or if you want to read and store data, instead of an Arduino μSD card is a great way to expand upon the limited memory. 1GB or so of course not - - you do not need a high-capacity card, even though you've got lying around your SD card really should work..

Arduino Development Board
Ethernet Shield can work with almost any development platform, it certainly is better suited for Arduino. If you are looking to add an Arduino with this shield, I want to say that rock-solid Arduino Uno. Other Arduinos (Mega Leonardo, because of) the slope should work with, but a Transmog Shield may require you to move around the pins.

Arduino software
No revelations here, you will need to Arduino Arduino IDE program. Fortunately for us, Ethernet library as well as an excellent IDE comes with an SD library. If you do not have the latest version, you can download it from the Arduino downloads page.
