Wolfgang,

As long as you are not using only one FEC's mdio/mdc to communicate the
both PHY at address 1.

sorry, my fault...
I forgot about the internal pullup and did not read carefully that
U-Boot correctly identified the PHY at address 1.

So, both PHYs are strapped to address 0x01.

My concern was, if there is any problem arising from two PHYs sharing
the same address while being accessed through different physical
interfaces. E.g., it seems I can only access one of the PHYs via the
"mii" commands - I am not sure if this is a limitation originating from
the identical addresses, or some other problem with my setup.

Thanks for pointing out that mistake!

Regards,
Wolfgang
