actually, that does look what did the flip on AR150 compared to ar71xx - there, WAN port is mapped to ETH0, and LAN is ETH1
On first boot, the WAN port shows as a LAN port with an address of 192.168.1.1 - which if one is doing development work, and the local LAN is also 192.168.1.0/24, this causes an ARP conflict with the gateway…
From the GW log… GW is running pfSense on the 192.168.1.0/24 segment…
Oct 18 21:30:46 kernel arp: e4:95:6e:44:f7:ac is using my IP address 192.168.1.1 on igb1!
Which causes every host on that LAN segment to get very confused about who really is 192.168.1.1
Wonder how this impacts the failsafe recovery options with the pepe2k uboot page.
don’t have time to fix it right now - very busy with day job stuff…

and a bit further down the log where br-lan sorts itself out… (for those who might not know, first boot takes a bit as we have to build the jffs2 file system, subsequent boots take much less time.)

some backup info, this is from the ar9331 data sheet, and if I recall, ar9531 is the same here…
One would want the GE0 mapped out to WAN, and GE1-MDIO and MAC to be mapped out to the LAN side to ensure enough bandwidth across the LAN ports
