Hi everyone,

I am currently testing IgH EtherCAT Master 1.5.2 on top of Linux 3.14.28 running alongside Xenomai 2.6.5.
My hardware below is running on 32-bit Ubuntu 14.04.5:
    CPU - Intel Core i7 6700 (Skylaker)
    MoBO - Gigabyte GA-B150M-HD3
    Ethernet - On-board Realtek R8169

In the master configuration file, I configured MAC address to the HWaddr found when using the shell command "ifconfig". I was able to start the master, find the connected slaves and do motor control using 6 Sanyo Denki slaves. However, the problem is when I execute "ethercatctl stop". The standard Ethernet module shows HWaddr of 00:00:00:00:00:00. Does anyone know the reason for this occurrence?

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:00:00:00:00:00
          BROADCAST MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 B)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 B)

Without executing either of the IgH executable shell scrips located at <etherlab-dir>/sbin/ethercatctl or <etherlab-dir>/etc/init.d/ethercat, removing and inserting the Ethernet module using ordinary Linux shell script commands such as "rmmod", "insmod", "modprobe" does not show any problems (HWaddr is not 00:00:00:00:00:00). But if I do the same process after running the shell scripts, the same problem occurs (HWaddr is 00:00:00:00:00:00).

Thank you very much,
