I usually get the initial "link down" message, followed by a "link up" message, and things proceed normally. However, I have occasionally seen, on one of the 355 evm boards that we have, that the link goes down and stays down, but will recover when I unplug and replug the cable. I just attributed it to an issue we have with our current network layout (the evm has several old switches and lots of cat-5 cable between it and a flaky router/dhcp server). Since we don't need enet for the system we are building, I just ignored the problem. Are you saying that your network (sometimes) doesn't come up, or were you just not expecting to see the initial "link down" message?
