Hi Everyone,
I am currently trying to play around with the USRP2, but am not even
able to
connect to it.
I have the latest UHD and GNURadio installed from git running on Ubuntu
10.04.
I’am connecting the USRP directly to the Gigabit Interface on my
computer.
I used the Firmware/FPGA image from
http://www.ettus.com/downloads/uhd_images/UHD-images-most-recent/
When I switch on the USRP2, all the LED’s light up and then LED D & F
stay
on. But,
→ None of the lights on the ethernet port light up.
→ uhd_find_devices says:

0a:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5721

Ethernet PCI Express (rev 21)
I have two gigabit interfaces, i have tried to connect on both with the
same
result.
→ When I use wireshark to see if any packets are actually sent, I dont
see
anything going between the USRP2 and my computer.
I have set a static ip (192.168.10.1/255.555.255.0) too.
I have tried different ethernet cables, made sure no pins are broken in
either of the ethernet ports.
I’am not sure what I’am doing wrong. I have ferreted the mailing-lists
for
similar problems but couldn’t find any solution. Any help will be
appreciated at this point.
Thanks,
Praveen

another thing worth checking might be firewall issues and if ping works:

Sorry for the late reply, just got into my lab.
When I start the USRP2, This is what happens:
F lights up first,
then all the LEDS flash
and D and F stay on.
I tried burning txrx_raw_eth_20100608.bin/u2_rev3-20100603.bin as my
fw/fpga
on the SD card and even that does the same thing.
I’am using the Kingston 2gb SD card I got with the USRP2.

Thanks again Josh.
I re-flashed the the SD card with the images from:
http://www.ettus.com/downloads/uhd_releases/003_000_000/images
http://www.ettus.com/downloads/uhd_releases/003_000_000/images/I
downloaded the corresponding .deb file and installed it using dpkg.
Set the UHD_IMAGE_PATH to /usr/share/uhd/images (where the .deb file
installed the bin files to)
Now when I turn on the USRP2, the LED’s light up in the same sequence as
in
the video, with one change.
The green light on the left of the Ethernet lights up faintly before the
LED
sequence and goes out.
Still no messages from the USRP2 on wireshark and am not able to find
any
UHD devices either.
but when I typed dmesg on my computer after opening up wireshark it
showed
this:
[10100.838314] dumpcap uses obsolete (PF_INET,SOCK_PACKET)
[10113.980644] device eth0 entered promiscuous mode
[10309.030910] bnx2: eth0 NIC Copper Link is Down
Is there something wrong with my gigabit interface driver?
or Is my USRP2 bricked (is this possible)?
Thanks again for the help,
Praveen
Hello,I can not ping usrp N210 when I config my PC with 192.168.10.1,
Now I have installed gnuradio but not udh, and I also want to know what
is udh for?
Thank you very much!!

This is how the LEDs should light up after power cycle when using the
UHD images on your USRP2. Notice at the very end of the video how the
ethernet link light comes on (very faint LED on the left).

Hope that helps,
