ENC28j60 No Internet

[slowpoison4]

Hi I have a NODEMCU ESP8266 and an ENC28J60 Ethernet Module.

I've been able to successfully flash the Firmware by making the Changes in user_config.h and enabled HAVEENC28J60. I have a project where i needed a simple Ethernet to WiFi Router to allow my other ESP's to be able to connect to it. I have made the Following changes: set eth_enable 1 set eth_dhcpd 1 set speed 160

When I type show: I get to see the following: Version V2.2.15 (build: Sun Mar 14 13:22:44 2021) STA: SSID:ssid PW:password [AutoConnect:0] AP: SSID:MyAP PW:none [open] IP:192.168.4.1/24 [NAT] ETH IP: 192.168.5.1 Netmask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 0.0.0.0 STA MAC: 5c:cf:7f:53:c6:a5 AP MAC: 5e:cf:7f:53:c6:a5 ETH MAC: 5a:cf:7f:53:c6:a5 STA hostname: ESP_53c6a5 Network console access on port 7777 (mode 3) Clock speed: 160

The Problem is that I am unable to access the Internet. When I visit 1192.168.5.1 i get to see the NAT router page. But no internet connectivity. Can someone guide me as to where i am going wrong?

I've made the connections as per the Instructions. Previously I had connected the ENC28j60 CLK to D5. Turns out that was causing the ESP to bootloop. When i switched it to SCK it started working. I am unsure where I've gone wrong.

What does "show status" print? What happen if you give "interface if0 down"?

[slowpoison4]

Hi Martin, This is what i get when i type show stats. show status returns "Invalid command". show stats System uptime: 0:01:43 8 KiB in (73 packets) 0 KiB out (4 packets) Power supply: 2.911 V Phy mode: n Free mem: 7512 STA not connected ETH IP: 192.168.5.1/24 GW: 0.0.0.0 0 Stations connected to SoftAP

When I Send the command "interface if0 down" it returns with Invalid interface

Could you try to set a default gw address for the ethernet (the upstream internet router) with:

set eth_gw x.x.x.x

[slowpoison4]

Hi Martin,

I set the default gateway to 192.168.0.1.

when I input show: Version V2.2.15 (build: Sun Mar 14 13:22:44 2021) STA: SSID:ssid PW:password [AutoConnect:0] AP: SSID:MyAP PW:none [open] IP:192.168.4.1/24 [NAT] ETH IP: 192.168.5.1 Netmask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.0.1 STA MAC: 5c:cf:7f:53:c6:a5 AP MAC: 5e:cf:7f:53:c6:a5 ETH MAC: 5a:cf:7f:53:c6:a5 STA hostname: ESP_53c6a5 Network console access on port 7777 (mode 3) Clock speed: 160

Still no access to internet. If you see, the Ethernet IP shows 192.168.5.1. When i enter this address in my mobile phone browser, it takes me to the NAT Settings page. Edit: The Repeater works beautifully when I connect it to my WiFi Router at home. I Even checked the Module to see if its defective. Tested with the Ethercard library in Arduino ide and was able to Ping google.com. so im sure the module is working. What i dont understand is that why is the Ethernet not able to get the Gw by default

[martin-ger]

The ethernet interface must have an IP in the subnet of the connected upstream router (192.168.0.x) and 192.168.0.1 as default gw. Than it should be able to ping to the outside world. NAT should than enable Internet access for the connected STAs.

Hi Martin,

I checked the DHCP client list on my router and couldn't find the ethernet module. So i don't think the Module has initialized correctly. What can i do to ensure it is initialized correctly? do you by any chance have a working version with the stats that i could compare it to. also what setting can i further change to just get it running ?

Regards

There is no DHCP client running on the ethernet interface. Just give it a static IP (best out of the range of the DHCP server in the uplink router), but for a try any unused IP will do). Currently I have no config running here.
