Espruino is a JavaScript interpreter for low-power Microcontrollers. This site is both a support community for Espruino and a place to share what you are working on.

The Espruino console stays alive and responsive. Pings work all the time, even when the connection is refused.
My macro runs continuously until I get the error (I cannot see any pattern as to which iteration it fails on - The macro is just hitting each of the 8 links on the page in sequence, over and over). When it eventually fails, issuing a eth.setIP() fixed it on the first 15 or so occasions (I did not count, but I can if helpful). After the 15th (or whatever it was) eth.setIP() does not revive it, but loading the whole script again does.
The good news it that none of this is causing the Espruino to crash or drop the COM port.
