Hi,
I am using an Arty board (Digilent) and trying to communicate with DP83848JSQ from an FPGA.
I am able to communicate with the Ethernet PHY via MDIO interface and read the vendor ID and other status registers.
Now After reset release , when I plug the RJ45 jack of Arty board to PC the link up status remain low. I have tried reading BMSR register . Here the link up bit remains low.
I guess the device is in default state as i have not initiated any configuration.
i was expecting Link detection OK if I plug into a PC.
Below is the reading I obtained from PHY when unconnected and connected to PC. I guess PC cable is straight . At PC side auto-negotiation is enabled.

What could be the issue?? Do I need to do some configuration for Link status detect.
