My current project I'm working on is reusing a Dell USB modem housing and fit a Arduino nano with Ethernet shield and OLED LCD in there. the purpose of the device will be to check if the network is giving DHCP and show it on screen.
It can be powered by a Power Pack from the USB connection.

The items that it will show on screen is:
* IP adress
* Netmask
* Gateway
* DNS.
And if possible, show what VLAN it is using.

Goals:
Reuse the Dell USB modem housing and cable for data and power.

Hardware that will be used:
1x Arduino Nano V3 (Clone).
1x Arduino Nano Ethernet Shield ENC28J60.
1x 0.91 inch 128x32 I2C IIC Serial Blue OLED LCD Display Module
1x Power Pack with USB connector.
1x obsolete Dell RD02-D400 Conexant USB modem.
