The most likely cause is not getting interrupts from your

Try putting some 'diag_printf()' calls in the ethernet driver to
see what's happening.

Aye, that I've been doing and sure enough no Rx interrupts. I see the transmit interrupts but not the receive ones ... hmmm.

Note: at this point, it's best to access RedBoot via the serial port
and leave network based debugging for later.


Sigh :-) I so wish this weren't the case but I understand why it is.
