Without checking in code, it seems the timout for DHCP elapses before the answer arrives. This confirms Fabio's tests, that is something related to the network. Some boards have set CONFIG_ARP_TIMEOUT to a higher value as default (200 instead of 5 mSec). Maybe it is related, maybe not...you need to sniff your network ;-) Best regards, Stefano Babic -- ===================================================================== DENX Software Engineering GmbH, MD: Wolfgang Denk & Detlev Zundel HRB 165235 Munich, Office: Kirchenstr.5, D-82194 Groebenzell, Germany Phone: +49-8142-66989-0 Fax: +49-8142-66989-80 Email: off...@denx.de ===================================================================== _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
