I used to compile EtherCAT by myself, but since the packages became available I just install them as described here by rodw.
I take it you have run latency-histogram and have the graph nicely inside say +-20 microseconds for the servo thread?

I tried that but maybe there is an issue with my w5500. Thanks great Cornholio

Thank you for your response.

I would like to know what versions of LinuxCNC and Ethercat you commonly use, respectively.
I will reinstall the system.

This info assumes a single NIC with a driect cable connection from the Host machine to the other device.
All the host needs is an IP address on the same subnet so 192.168.10.xx
DNS - not required (only used for accessing hosts via host names not needed for IP addresses)
GATEWAY - not required (only required when there is a second machine that has access to a network outside of the 192.168.10 network)
NETMASK - 255.255.255.0 or 192.168.10.0/24 (depending on how you are required to input this info)
