OK.

Mike Nix confirmed it resolved the bridging issue for him too, but
reported some problems detecting carrier loss.  Does that ring any
bells for you?  I found the link status bit you were testing would
always say "connected" (on a D-Link adapter), while the TX status
bit behaved once the host transmitted something.

Well, reading the PHY's media status register should always indicate the correct value. According to the specs part of the information passed through interrupt pipe (incl link status) is read from the MII, which probably doesn't happen. I could experiment and see if can prove this theory.


D-Link and Linksys have always had slightly different GPIO setup (part of which connect the MII to adm851x), hence the problem. It is possible that the TX/RX and link status LED doesn't work either.

there was a bug filed for it until recently ... here's something that seems to
fix it for me, along with a couple other updates.

Comments?
