That should be OK

What does

Is the 7I92 powered, connected and set for a 192.168.1.121 IP address?
(W5,W6 = down,down)

For now lucky installed gnome and delete nm-tray
In gnome I make changes to
address 10.10.10.11
netmask 8
Gateway 10.10.10.1
Delete all from file interfaces
On 7i92 W5 Down W6 Up

1. The bit file you used has stepgen features that are not supported in LinuxCNC 2.8
Here is a 2.8 compatible 7I76+7I85 bitfile:

 

2. The ping times are not good, you likely need to check the Ethernet type
and if its Intel, change back to using the interfaces file and add something like this
       auto eno1
       iface eno1 inet static
           address 10.10.10.100
           hardware-irq-coalesce-rx-usecs 0


 

Now I can start Linuxcnc
After change interfeces file ping time is still like before
edi@tokarka:~$ ping 10.10.10.10

How I can check the Ethernet type if its Intel? Or which buy for linuxcnc?
In Pncconf was only 7i92 with one 7i76 but must to add in hal 7i85 for linear scales feetback. Any example?

You can usually determine the Ethernet chip type with:

lspci | grep -i eth

The chip is intel.
Which ping time are good?
Which ethernet card buy?
Looking for any example of Hal with my setup but no lucky.
