sensorNET - console code status on the 20th January 2012

I completed the network setup console code. The code posted below includes:

1. Ability to choose DHCP or static.
2. If static, ability to set IP, subnet and gateway addresses.
3. Saves settings to EEPROM so they are available even after power down.
4. DHCP selected out of the box
5. EEPROM space for MAC address and device serial number
6. Configuration done by Serial connection at 115200baud
7. Rock solid with 12V power supply (will reset randomly with USB power only).

Things that I would like to solve with this version:

1. Ability to auto reset to activate changes (currently the user needs to use the reset button).

Next steps:

0. Organize the code in several files, instead of one large one (main, i2c, serial_comms, webclient, webserver).
1. Box the prototype boards (both main console and sensor board prototype)
2. Add screw terminal connections
3. Code i2C implementation in the main console and, at the same time,
5. code i2C code implementation on the client sensor board

code after the break (compiles with Arduino IDE version 1):
