ENC28J60 is a popular choice to add hardwired network connection to Radxa Zero. In this tutorial we will show you how to use it with Zero.

Requirements

Support for ENC28J60 is to Radxa Zero recently, and no official release currently includes it.

In this tutorial we will this test image: radxa-zero_debian_bullseye_cli_2023-02-01T1038+0000_msdos.img.xz

The test image has change the default account and password to radxa/radxa. SSH is also disabled by default to prevent unauthorized access using the default account.

You should connect every pin from 17 to 24 on Radxa Zero except pin 22.

Once you boot into the system, you can use the new rsetup system configuration tool to enable overlays.

Simply run rsetup in your terminal:
