[En-Nut-Discussion] Ethernet Failure

[Pete Allison]

Has he rebuilt Basemon from the source code delivered with the Ethernut
development kit? (If that is what he has.)

I cannot rebuilt that source and get it work. Seems to have a problem with
initializing the ethernet port.

The basemon code that was loaded in the ethernut when we purchased it worked
fine. 

While it would be nice to have it back, I figured out a way around it.

You do not mean that really, do you? ;-) A HUB/Switch typically do not
provide DHCP, but routers do.

Just Basemon or did you try to connected the integrated HTTP server (after
exiting Basemon by pressing X)?

Try another power supply. Ethernet requires a it more power.

Is the yellow LED lit? Does the green LED flash sometimes?

If you use Basemon to set a fixed IP, it will be stored in EEPROM. When the
'Preserve EEPROM' fuse is set (default on shipped Ethernuts), these setting
will be available after burning a new application. No DHCP will be required
then and the HTTP server sample should run out of the box.

Additional network configuration samples are provided at
http://www.ethernut.de/nutwiki/Nut/OS_Examples
There are ready-made binaries you can try as well.

Which board revision you have? Rev-F or earlier?

Did you create the sample binaries yourself? Sure you chose the right
configuration file?
