Bug

Target Realtek RTL895AM

Toolchain: GCC_ARM

Toolchain version:

mbed-cli version: (mbed --version)

meed-os sha: (git log -n1 --oneline)

bbb9a1a

DAPLink version:

Expected behavior

mbed-os-example-client should work, it should open up ethernet connection and connect.

Actual behavior

It should be able to open up a normal Ethernet connection via easy-connect just like all other boards.

=========================================================

ROM Version: 0.3

Build ToolChain Version: gcc version 4.8.3 (Realtek ASDK-4.8.3p1 Build 2003)

Steps to reproduce

• compile mbed-os-example-client (tip of master)
• with Archady's mbed-os fork / branch enable-sdram (https://github.com/ARMmbed/mbed-os/pull/4665)
• remember to put in your own security.h from the Connector portal.
• flash into a board, reset board
• monitor progress from serial.

Question

How to?

[JanneKiiskila]

Ho-huh, should be doing these tests by having the board AT HAND, not in a remote RaaS. I now remember that these boards DO NOT have an physical ethernet connection! So, this issue is NOT valid and can be closed. I need to use these over WLAN.
