This device is currently an outcast here, and until someone with understanding sets out to fix at least the main problems, welcome to the official image on the 5.15 kernel.

Things are still very sad with Ethernet. Is this could be related to some low-level timings in device configuration?

@Werner I imagine there are plenty of people here who could help solve similar problems. In theory, I could provide a pair of an old RPI (master) and a 4A (slave), with the slave serial connected to the master and power controlled via the GPIO, and they are also on the same VLAN. However, if something goes wrong it needs control to the slave's SD card, all I've found is an SD card extender, and it needs something like an emulator that connects to the master via the same USB/SPI.

I'd like to add my observations. The current version is 7.0.0-rc6-edge-sunxi64. The wireless interface is available, but if Ethernet is connected, it's impossible to connect to either interface via SSH. However, as soon as the Ethernet speed is set to 100, both interfaces become operational. Maybe this will help revive the hardware.

After upgrade to 7.0.0-rc6-edge-sunxi64 wlan is shown in interfaces. Gigabit Ethernet does not work yet.

Armbian_community 26.2.0-trunk.639 Trixie ttyS0 Ethernet is unstable, cannot connect with SSH, useDns, mtu change - did not help. WiFi is not initialized anymore. I can confirm there is no file. I tried to fix it with AI help and did a lot of stuff, nothing worked. Bu once decreasing speed to 100 ethtool -s end0 speed 100 duplex full autoneg on it started to work. Now I can connect via SSH and apt update work as well.

Hi @Edmilson Santos, what about Ethernet?

Issues for the actual image (no UI): no HDMI; Ethernet got address with DHCP, but cannot connect with SSH, even ping (ICMP) is not stable. Wifi works fine. The board is OK - tested with official debian image.
