HiFiBerry team This shows that the Ethernet interface IS up and running. Why exactly do you think it's not up?

Douglas Miller HiFiBerry is not using the wired network interface, if I turn off wifi then it does not connect to LMS. I also cannot ping or ssh to the wired network IP address.

HiFiBerry team My best guess is that the network interface itself might have problem. According to the output of ifconfig, the interface is configured and up. You might check your Ethernet cabling, ethernet switch.
Did you use this Pi ever with Ethernet before? Defective Ethernets are quite rare, but I've seen these already.

When I first installed HiFiBerryOS, I did not have a wired connection handy and so configured it as wifi. Now, with the device in it's final location, I can attache a wired lan and would like to eliminate potential issues with wifi.
Just connecting the wired device did not seem to have the desired results. The Network/Wired display shows it connected, but it did not run DHCP and so did not get an IP address. I then configured a manual/static IP address, but still the device cannot be accessed or even pinged on that IPaddress. I have tried various combinations of rebooting and disabling wifi, and still HiFiBerry OS will not use the wired lan nor does it seem to fully bring it up.
With a static IP address programmed, ifconfig shows:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr DC:A6:32:B3:8A:20
inet addr:192.168.1.22 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

which seems to indicate traffic - albeit unsuccessful traffic at some layer.
