Hi,

Is anyone willing to explain what seems to me to be an unexpected
behavior in a windows+cygwin PC to Roach1 network connection ?

With the Roach1 in the uboot state.  Network address (192.168.3.240)
acquired via dhcp, from a directly connected windows+cygwin
PC host system (192.168.3.2).

Roach1 can ping the PC exactly as expected.
PC cygwin ping of Roach1 hangs.

While PC ping is hung if the Roach1 pings an unused address
say 192.168.3.3 then the PC pings of the Roach1 un-hang and
return just as expected.  When the Roach1 pings give up
after the N failures the PC pings return to the hung state.

I've only tried this on 1 particular Roach1 but it is
completely repeatable across power cycling, cable reseating
and resetting the Roach1 and anything else I could think
to try.

When booted to linux this Roach1 responds to pings exactly
as expected.

Maybe to be expected because Roach1 uboot doesn't respond
to some particular type of packet requests the PC requires ?

Thanks,
Matt
