So i bought a GD32f407RE. Flashed the bootlader v1.3 with ST-Link adapter to the adress 0x08000000. I am using DP83848 Phy. The router is assigning the IP from DHCP, but for a short time. Also there is no ping response. In the meantime, i can see the device in the Firmware Update Manager, but with an ip in the range of 169.x.x.x. And after 10-15sec the device dissapears in the router as well. By the way the PC0 LED is blinking in 500ms intervals. What does that mean? Can you help?
Also does the firmware only works by uploading it through the bootloader or can i flash it directly? If yes, what are the network settings for your firmware release? DHCP or Static IP?
Thanks.

Hi Arjan,
Everything fine so far. Got some issues though:
1- After configuring the network.txt with a static IP and dhcp=0 & save it, and after pushing the reset button it is updating the IP and it works fine, but it looses the static IP settings and turns back to DHCP mode and gets again it's IP from the DHCP pool after powering the device on or after a power surge.
In my setup i need to work only with static IP's.
So how to make the device stuck to a static IP? Are the settings not stored in the eeprom?

2- The device is not accepting the reboot command from the remote configuration manager. But it is accepting it from the Firmware update UI. So i have to reboot the device manually through the reset button. What can cause this?

edit: well i could reserve an IP on the router side for that mac, but sometimes i just need to plug it on the PC's network card, and acces it directly with it's static IP.

Thanks.

Hi,
is it possible to run this also on a stm32f407 board? If so, what are the steps for that?

Hi Arjan,

I compiled the firmware with:
CONFIG_STORE_USE_SPI

After booting the device, the SPI flash is detected but i can not store the settings via the Remote Configuration Manager on the flash.
Do i need to change anything else in the firmware to work with the external SPI Flash?

Here is the debug:
