Newer kernel packages may not have hit apt repo yet. Use the build framework to generate a set of kernel packages to be installed via dpkg -i by yourself: https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_Overview/ code { font-family: Consolas,"courier new"; color: crimson; background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2); padding: 2px; font-size: 105%; } ./compile.sh BOARD=rpi4b BRANCH=current kernel

Providing logs with armbianmonitor -u helps with troubleshooting and significantly raises chances that issue gets addressed.

Our resources are limited so we cannot provide images for each board with each kernel and each desktop environment. Feel free to use the framework to build the combination you want by yourself. https://docs.armbian.com/Developer-Guide_Overview/

Update: sicXnull/armbian-build (H96q) + "+CONFIG_SPL_IMAGE_TYPE_SUNXI_TOC0=y" and "secure-boot.patch" solved the problem. Now, the ethernet interface is fully functional. Thank you Nick & sicXnull.

I downloaded the image. And yes, of course, I needed to set up the wifi connection when armbian asked me to.
