The compatible = part was only to make the driver module load automatically.  The driver module itself had to be first compiled into the kernel using source code from the chip vendor.  I suggest you try my DTB (it might be close to what you need) and then post your dmesg as a file (sudo dmesg > dmesg.txt).

can it be compiled in currently running armbian ? my computer specs and internet speed is not decend enough to compile armbian from scratch, compile using github action may be a choice but i don't know how to do that yet.

 

i attached the dmesg.txt with your dtb, my bluetooth seems incompatible with your dtb, and ethernet still not working

dmesg.txt

 

also added dmesg with default dtb (rk3566-h96-tvbox.dtb), bluetooth is working

dmesg-hqnic.txt

Others may chime in but I really think you are going to need to get access to a suitable computer and compile armbian with kernel patches from here :

 

https://github.com/CoreELEC/linux-amlogic/pull/13

 

You will need a PC running Ubuntu 22.04 or emulated using something like VirtualBox.  

 

@GBEM made a good guide here :
