Have you been able to ping anything at all under any circumstances? 
Try a simple cross over cable and see how you go.  What makes you 
think you've got a hardware problem?

Also it seems u-boot defaults to using FCC2 (ie. the second ethernet 
port) on the MPC8272ADS; are you sure you've got the cable plugged 
into the right port?
