Thank you very much, you made my day!! :-)

I've checked the include/configs/at91sam9260ek.h file for ethernet settings. 
There was "#define CONFIG_RMII   1" set. I've changed the section to:

/* Ethernet */
#define CONFIG_MACB			1
#undef CONFIG_RMII			
#define CONFIG_NET_MULTI		1
#define CONFIG_NET_RETRY_COUNT		20
#define CONFIG_RESET_PHY_R		1

And now it works!

Yesterday I've wasted my whole day on this issue but today evening I'll have a 
beer on you ;-) Cheers!
