ESP32-GATEWAY-EA-IND rev I ESP-IDF eth example

[driesvdb]

Hello

I am looking for some help porting the example on the github of olimex for ESP-IDF for an ethernet connection to the esp version v5.4.2. A lot of changes have happen sinds the release of the olimex example. I am starting from a basic ethernet example from version v5.4.2 and changing the configuration to set the correct pins and the other configuration. I have changed nothing for the code i just altered the configuration.
Currently the code seems to stop at the folowing code in ethernet_init.c

Code Select Expand

ESP_GOTO_ON_FALSE(esp_eth_driver_install(&config, &eth_handle) == ESP_OK, NULL,
                        err, TAG, "Ethernet driver install failed");
Before this i can log after this i can not see a log not even an error log.
Does anybody see the problem in my configuration.
For the start of the example i selected:
Target: esp32
Board: esp32-wrover-kit 3.3v
Here is my sdkconfig:

ESP32-GATEWAY doesn't use WROVER chip, so it is not good idea to use "esp32-wrover-kit 3.3v" config as basis. Use some config with WROOM chip for basis.

About the config, MDC and MDIO are ok but reset pin should be either GPIO5 (it is connected to a transistor that toggles the PHY power) or set it to -1. Try with either:

CONFIG_EXAMPLE_ETH_PHY_RST_GPIO=5

or

CONFIG_EXAMPLE_ETH_PHY_RST_GPIO=-1

Oke thanks i set the CONFIG_EXAMPLE_ETH_PHY_RST_GPIO=1 because it was set like that in the olimex example config.
But changing it to CONFIG_EXAMPLE_ETH_PHY_RST_GPIO=5 fixed the problem.
Thanks

Glad it is now working. Can you point me which Olimex demo exactly did you use? Link to the GitHub repo will help me fix it. Thank you.

Hello
I was using the ESP32_Gateway_Ethernet_v4.0 example config.
And for esp-idf the ethernet basic example for the v5.4.2.
https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/blob/master/examples/ethernet/basic/README.md
I adjusted the config of this example to get it to work.
Then i changed the example code to use a tcp client connection.
Now i am trying to figure out how to advertise on bluetooth without success so far.
The device is not visible on nrf connect
