Hey Guys,

I will start from the top on what I have done,

I have Debian built from the boo-table USB from the website, then I 
compiled using,

cd ~
sudo apt-get install git-core gitk git-gui
sudo apt-get build-dep linuxcnc
sudo apt-get install linux-image-3.2.0-4-rt-686-pae
sudo apt-get install libudev-dev
sudo apt-get install iptables-persistent
git clone git://git.linuxcnc.org/git/linuxcnc.git linuxcnc-dev
cd linuxcnc-dev
git pull
git checkout master
cd src
./autogen.sh
./configure --with-realtime=uspace
make
sudo make setuid

After that is when I tried to load the firmware to the card, then I 
tried to change the card IP address, both times I get the "No 7I80 board 
found"

Then I found in the HM2_ETH manual the following entries,

*Configure network with static address*
Add these lines to the file /etc/network/interfaces to configure eth1 
with a static address:

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet static
     address 192.168.1.1

*Disable IPv6 on the dedicated interface*
By default, Linux may transmit IPv6 packets on all interfaces, even if 
they are not explicitly configured with global IPv6 addresses. In 
/etc/sysctl.conf, disable ipv6 on eth1 by adding this line:

net.ipv6.conf.eth1.disable_ipv6=1

*Note:*Simply setting ’ipv6’ to ’ignore’ in the GUI network tools does 
not eliminate the link-local ipv6 address. Use the sysctl.conf method 
even if you otherwise use the GUI to configure the dedicated interface.

*Configure iptables for exclusive access*
Install the package "iptables-persistent" and put this in the file 
/etc/iptables/rules.v4 (remove leading whitespace from every line):

*filter
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
:hm2-eth-rules-output - [0:0]
-A OUTPUT -j hm2-eth-rules-output
COMMIT



Of which I did all of the above, and still I get the "No 7I80 board 
found" after trying to communicate with the board.

I am using the following MB, 
http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/FM2A88X-ITX+/?cat=Specifications only 
because we have had very good luck with the ASrock boards, and this 
offered on-board WiFi, to get around the problem of not having an 
ethernet port to connect to our network, when using the 7i80.

Could the on-board WiFi be causing my communication problem?
