Honored ContributorIf you are using Nios II, uCOS and the NicheStack, then the Altera drivers will already have configured the PHY's chip MDIO address in the mdio_addr1 register. Then you can directly access the PHY's registers.
For that you will need to include in your c code the driver file triple_speed_ethernet_regs.h, and from that use the macro IORD_ALTERA_TSEMAC_MDIO(base, mdio, reg_num) to read a PHY register or IOWR_ALTERA_TSEMAC_MDIO(base, mdio, reg_num, data) to write it. base is the TSE IP base address (as defined in system.h, something like TSE_BASE), mdio is 1, reg_num is the register number (20 in your case) and value the value you want to write.
