[lwip-users] lwIP without Ethernet connection

[Tomas Daujotas]

Hello,
I use lwIP-1.4.0 without any RTOS and I see that when the Ethernet
cable is disconnected, the system hangs in netif_add() waiting for the
cable to be plugged in. I also see that it will later wait for
alteraTseNetif.state->link_alive to go high, so my question is:
is it possible to modify the code that the stack would time-out if the
cable is not connected for some time? I will later get an interrupt
from the PHY, when cable will be connected.

Thank You.

Sincerely,
Tomas D.
