KC868-A16 ethernet work with home assistant by ESPHome configure

do you have set some IFTTT? maybe you can factory reset the board. there is a "factry reset" button in KCS webpage. click it then test again.

no, I did not install it, I do not know what IFTTT is. I'm new to this, this is my first experience using HA and ESP Home. So if you can tell me in more detail what I should do. thanks

you can download KCS v3 firmware to test a long time , whether work well. here is KCS v3 online guide: https://www.kincony.com/how-to-use-kcsv3...board.html

OK, I'll try.

The framework uses type: arduino

Currently I have a board set up and in use over wifi. It uses type: esp_idf. 
I want to change to ethernet. Do I have to change the type to arduino? 

Thanks!

ardunio or esp_idf all support use by ethernet. you can use any platform.

That's awesome, thanks!

So, just to confirm. If delete the wifi section and add this to my current working .yaml then the ethernet should be working without any problems, right?

Code:

# Example configuration entry
ethernet:
  type: LAN8720
  mdc_pin: GPIO23
  mdio_pin: GPIO18
  clk:
    pin: GPIO17
    mode: CLK_OUT
  phy_addr: 0

yes, it's right.
