Are you sure the PHYs are powered up properly? It looks like the MDIO controller doesn't see anything when it polls the devices. Double check your schematic and maybe probe the MDIO bus when you issue the 'mii info' command. MDIO is a lot like I2C (pretty low speed serial, easy to probe). regards, Ben
