- something (PHY reset/auto negotiation?) takes 2-3 seconds and appears to be done with interrupts disabled.
It was clocking the MII management interface (MDC) at 500 Hz so each PHY register access took some 130 ms, and many registers accesses were being done on initialization. According to the datasheet, the maximum frequency for MDC is 2.5 MHz. Delays have been adjusted accordingly. David Vrabel
Reduce delays when reading/writing the PHY registers so we clock the MII management interface at 2.5 MHz (the maximum according to the datasheet) instead of 500 Hz.
