Hi, I just bought a brand new cam RT1062 and I was trying to use the ethernet example provided in the OpenMV IDE “rtsp_video_server_lan.py”
I already made a module with an ethernet connector (as described on the github page)
The problem that I’m currently facing is that the script gets stuck at “network_if.ifconfig(“dhcp”)”, I tried to understand why and with “print(network_if.ifconfig(“mac”))” it turns out that the MAC addres is b’\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00’
Is that correct? How can the MAC address be empty? Is there a way to insert temporarly a manual MAC address?
Are you sure that connector is working? It should just work. When I plug a unit into my shield at home it gets an IP address without issue.
Note, you need ethernet magnetics… the connector itself can’t go directly to the RT1062 board.
…
As for the ethernet PoE shield. I will get samples next month and then should be able to approve it being built.
Ok, I checked the connencton and it turns out it was becausa the GND was not soldered well 
But let’s say that i want to connect 2 or more cameras to a network switch, in that case I will need the MAC address to not be 0.0.0.0, is there a way to set an address via “software”?
Also, I saw that the module rtsp is not working at the moment with the RT1062, is there a software update in the working that brings support for that?
Hi, I don’t know where you got the MAC address of 0. I just tested the code with wireshark and you can clearly see the camera doesn’t use a MAC address of 0.
Additionally, MicroPython set’s the MAC address of the board based on the unique ID code in the chip: micropython/ports/mimxrt/mphalport.c at f13c0bc8a9b922ef856a454592366d5b428f532f · openmv/micropython · GitHub
