PING Problem

[alexlevandovski]

I have Board with LAN7500 connected to USB2 iMX6(Freescale). This Board is under Linux 3.10.17 Kernel. As I boot the Board and connect LAN7500 EthernetConnector to Ethernet Cable I see green LED and orange LED are on.Then make LAN7500 UP, check LINK, Ping 172.20.20.20 over eth1(LAN7500). 100% Packet loss. Can you help me in this problem?

Hi Alex

one can try to use more new kernel

http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/imx/linux-2.6-imx.git/?h=imx_4.1.15_1.0.0_ga

and use ethtool for debugging, try loopback

USB to Ethernet adapter - ArmadeusWiki

Hello Igor, new(last) information.

1. I connected Ethernet cable to imx6 Ethernet Input and after this boot the Board.

2. Then I aktivated LAN7500  with  ifconfig eth1 up

3.Then I reconnect Ethernet cable from imx6 Ethernet to LAN7500 Ethernet.

4. Then I make ping         ping -I eth1 172.20.20.20     and it was OK.

I think, that some configuration was needed to functionality of LAN7500(IP?). And this configuration made Kernel boot procedure imx6 in Point 1.

LAN7500 used this configuration. Can you help me to explain how can I make this configuration in kernel boot procedure, so that LAN7500 come in UP state after boot Kernel without user aktivity(automatic). And what have to be configured?

thanks in advance.

Hello Igor, probably I have to add some "code" to "device tree blob"?
