Request: Ethernet connection support #55

Thank you for your project. Now I'm using Wemos D1 Mini32 board (& Tindie Opentherm master shield).

It will be great if your gateway could support Ethernet connection instead of wi-fi. It is more reliable and especially with PoE it can be used for power supply. I think (when you don't use Wifi-Manager for configuration) it could be maybe simpler now.

I like more complex Ethernet board with LAN8720 as WT32-ETH01, Olimex ESP32-POE or simple module with SPI as Wiznet W5500.

What do you thinkin about it? Unfortunately my skills aren't to high to fork your project and modify it for Ethernet. Maybe someone else...

Hi,

I thought about it, but now I don’t have free time and devices with an Ethernet port for testing. The project code for working with the network is not complicated. If you have experience in programming, try to add this feature and create a PR.
