Struggling to get a KC868-E16S working with ESPHome/Home Assistant
#1
Question 
Hello, I bought a KC868-E16S and would appreciate some help to get this device working in Home Assistant.
This is my first experience with ESPHome.

Just by connecting over Ethernet, the device didn't get an IP address by DHCP.
I searched for information/documentation but could find anything.
Finally by connecting with USB I did write a file with and got WiFi working but not the LAN interface.
I found a yaml file (KC868-E16S/E16P demo configure for ESPhome) for this device, uncommented the manual IP section, assigned a fixed IP and was able to upload that file to the device.
Still I could not get the LAN interface working, no LEDS, no ping reply.

Can you please tell me how to get this device working or point me to the documentation for it.

Thank you.

uncommented the manual IP section, is to use DHCP, DHCP is better. after download firmware, you can try to re power on of your E16S board.
