-This sounds to be either SW or Network related. -It could be bad cable.
-It could be a DHCP server issue or a bad IP address such that the router does not know where to route messages. -The fact it happens on two cards, makes it less likely to be a board issue. -Make sure the Ethernet cable is plugged in before you power up the board. -I have seen that if you have the USB cable connected and you have run the getting started stuff, the board decides to create its own DHCP server,. That can sometimes mess up the Ethernet. Make sure USB is unplugged from the PC and power up the board. Then ping the address as set by your DHCP sever to the assigned address.
