MicroPython • Re: network issues/questions for LWIP and Wiznet

The MicroPython IP stack, integration with LwIP, seems to be quite complicated and I doubt many people outside of MicroPython have much of an understanding of it all. I have tinkered but only in limited areas. I suspect you might have to dig through it all to try and figure out what is going on and what is lacking if MicroPython cannot supply answers.
I am also at a loss to understand how LWIP options would be set on a board-by-board basis, or how the various defines can be set (again, by board) to say, select which stack to use for the wiznet boards.
I don't know if they can be. Most selections will be done by using '#define' set in various header files, selecting which library, headers and defines to use during a build, but I don't know what support there is for doing that. MicroPython would be the best people to ask.
Yes, I appreciate that. Obviously, there are more serious issues being dealt with, and I am spoilt by the rapid responses I get from here :)

My main issue is that I'm not sure which code I should be looking at, whether it's LWIP code or the Wiznet IO code, etc.

As I don't use mDNS that's nor a problem for me, since I have dnsmasq to help locally.
Knowing that LWIP is set is already a big help, so thanks for that.

As I say, I have created an issue on github, and I will put any findings there (and here, for completeness - I do like to add the solution to a thread if I can).

Thanks again
