I have the same problem--deciding between uIP and lwIP.

I require only one IP connection with the paired device, but that
connection must be PPP. As I understand, uIP only provides SLIP.

Please keep us informed of your progress with uIP/lwIP.

Thanks,

I am starting development using the LPC2368 (I have the MCB2300 board)

The LPC2368 is going to need to be able to acquire a IP address from a
router if it is present(dhcpc) and it will need to be able to
establish a TCP connection for direct communication and able to
connect to a UDP/multicast port to run a SCADA application (BACnet
and/or Profinet/P
rofibus)

The freeRTOS(which I want to use) demo for the board uses uIP but does
not have a UDP connection built into the demo and uIP seems a bit
barebone while lwIP seems more complete (but with a bigger footprint).

Does anyone out there have any advice/opinions on which TCP/IP stack
to use for my application and is there examples out there for each stack?

The 2368 will also be logging data to a SPI flash memory, displaying
data on an LCD and communicating with another chip via CANbus and no
USB at this point.

Thanks for any input
