My plan is to have my Arduino (the first I connect to my current HA setup) in a room separate from my HS Server. I purchased the ethernet shield and plan to run CAT5 from room to room.
The instructions I have read so far discuss the setup configuration pretty heavily when using USB, but I didn't see much on the ethernet side.

- Is the thought process during setup to attach the Arduino to my HS Server via USB, upload the Sketch, then disconnect and plug into the network? Can I even upload a Sketch through the network?
- How best to locate the IP address for the Arduino?
- Do I have to take additional steps to install the shield onto the Arduino or is it just plug and play?
