hi, thanx for the help. I got it up and running. It was a h/w issue. Since I am using the smc9111.c for smc9196 I had to change some register settings to get it up. I will post it as a different driver like smc9196.c whe I submit it back to opensource. regards -kshitij

A classic ethernet mixup is the bit ordering of the MAC address. The ethernet sends the data LSB-first so, when you set your MAC, you have to bit-reverse the bytes from what you would normally think. This is horribly confusing. Suggestions: Sniff your transmissions with ethereal and see if the MAC address ethereal is showing is what you expect to see. Bit-reverse the MAC you program in and see if it starts working.
