In the fec_get_hwaddr() function I have printed out the values returned by imx_get_mac_from_fuse() and they are all 0.
I have read in the README.imx6 file that the MAC address is stored in the fuse bank. The default reset value according to the datasheet is 0, so is this programmed by Freescale or the board vendor ?
Looks like the vendor did not program the MAC address in the fuses then.
Does it work if you pass 'setenv ethaddr <macaddr>'?

yes using setenv ethaddr and setenv ipaddr allows me to ping other computers and to ping the board. I was wondering why if I try to set ethaddr as part of CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS it is not there when I boot the board.
