[atlas] No Ethernet activity on new probe

Hello Marco,

Thank you very much for your reply. I'll try to leave it as is until Monday.

Do you remember if there was any information about the probe's IP 
address on the Network tab during that time?

Unfortunately, not only no measurements or IP address information appeared in my profile after waiting several hours, but there's no Ethernet activity from probe at all, even in the packet trace.

Looks like the interface just isn't up in the device OS. Is there anything else I can check? Should I request another probe? (it took more than month to receive first one by post)
