Hi. I recently purchased a rugged SOM (emmc variant) and switchblox rugged and have been having some trouble configuring the network on the SOM. I installed the OS following the steps in the getting started guide and am using the 3.3V uart console. However after running the commands listed to set up the ethernet bridge I can’t seem to get the SOM to connect to anything.

I have tried to configure a static IP on the eth0 and lanx interfaces, but the SOM can’t ping anything else that it should be connected to.

The switchblox rugged works as expected while standalone, but when connected to the SOM I can’t get any response between anything connected to it.

I think I followed the guide correctly for placement of the 16 pin connector on the 18 pin header, but I haven’t tried it in the other position.

I am hoping I have just missed a simple step in the configuration.
