have a read of [how-to-get-the-best-out-of-this-forum](https://forum.arduino.cc/t/how-to-get-the-best-out-of-this-forum/681310)  
in particular:  
what host microcontroller are you using? e.g. UNO, Mega, ESP32, RP2040???  
what ethernet board are you using? give a link or a photo?  
how have you connected the Ethernet module to the host?  
did you test the Ethernet module in a separate program before connected any other devices?
