    Your most recent info make it look like both the host and target are using address '192.168.1.100' -- that won't work well (although I'd kinda expect self-pings to work).

    I'm also suprised that it looks like the host has been given the '192.168.1.100' address by a DHCP server -- if the host is directly connected to the target, I would not expect there to be a DHCP server found.

    Try with the host and target having different addresses on the same subnet, e.g. '192.168.1.100' and '192.168.1.1'.

    Also the U-Boot output says "Using  device" which looks like the device name is missing, but maybe that's normal.

    Do either of you Ethernet sockets have link LEDs?  Are they lighting?  flashing?
