Hello,

I am trying to figure out whether ASIX AX88179A-based Ethernet dongles are supported by U-Boot. There is a driver for AX88179 (note: without 'A') and it seems to recognize the dongle but that's as far as it gets.

Specifically, when I boot, it is recognized as Ethernet controller and ethact is set to axg0:

=> print ethact ethact=axg0

But running bootp or dhcp results in the "unable to connect" error:

=> dhcp Waiting for Ethernet connection... unable to connect. Reset Ethernet Device Waiting for Ethernet connection... unable to connect. =>

I can also see there is no led activity of any kind on the dongle.

Has anyone had any success with AX88179A? I am using U-Boot 2022.07.

Thanks, Boris
