Ethercat HAL driver

The motivating case was a network of about 100 slave devices; while scanning
is fast (under a second, after prior SII patches), the configuration process
to bring the slaves from PREOP to OP took about 80 seconds (and you could
see the lights coming on each slave in sequence). After the patch it takes
about 20 seconds.

How could I use the lcec component after install the patches???
The patches do lots of code changes and sittner lcec_component can't be installed...

Many thanks for your help sirop

Before applying any patches: did you do the simple test as propose above forum.linuxcnc.org/forum/24-hal-componen.../78878?quote=1#78863 ?

Yes I did the test and the same results.

I've tested a different pc with a r8139too and it works. So I assume there is some kind of problem with this network card.

I've just tried another r8169 and it doesn't work... Also I've tested using generic driver

Do you have also e1000e network card?

Generic driver won't make anything more reliable or faster.
