crossblade Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 Just got mine Prime and installed on microsd Armbian-server for that. After setting up root password and new user, have edited /etc/network/interfaces to have uncommented these lines source /etc/network/interfaces.d/* auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.0.106 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.0.1 dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4 auto lo iface lo inet loopback every manual says it should be easy like that... but it doesn't work where to dig next?
Igor Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 If your network settings are correct it should work, but this board has only experimental image(s) which are built automatically, every night from development sources and nobody tests them. Network adaptor should work, but it's possible the we broke it by accident. Nothing unusual for WIP state.
crossblade Posted May 18, 2017 Author Posted May 18, 2017 ok. Will try original Orange Pi Prime images, to be sure problem is in Armbian...
martinayotte Posted May 18, 2017 Posted May 18, 2017 Last time I've built an images for OPiPrime, although I was using DHCP, the wired networking was working fine.
crossblade Posted May 19, 2017 Author Posted May 19, 2017 Tnx! I'll try it. But looks like problem isn't in armbian - I've installed ubuntu image from orange pi download resources and there wired connection doesn't work too... Can you tell me how behave orange and green leds when wire 100% works? Mine orange blinks every 2 seconds and green flashes chaotically when wire is plugged in.
gnasch Posted May 22, 2017 Posted May 22, 2017 you should be able to repair this: just look at a lot of louis rossmann videos on youtube ;-) best, gnasch
gnasch Posted May 22, 2017 Posted May 22, 2017 maybe start with this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ho2W902s5P8 1
crossblade Posted May 23, 2017 Author Posted May 23, 2017 Yes, I understand, but I don't have tools needed for that. I tried scraping with a needle, but look like solder is deeper under the chip. And by the way official seller will ship me new board for almost free (just buying tracking number for 0.91$). 1
ice2642 Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 Hello, I am new here, writing this post from my orange pi prime. sorry for my terrible English. The wire eth0 work, but the wifi not, the armbian not see the wifi hardware. using the orange pi prime img from site, ubuntu or debian (the img that just work in 1280x720) the wifi work, and work fine, the best reception that i see in my live. for idea, my raspberry pi 3 get 53% of signal in wavemon, and the orange pi prime 85% in the same place!!! but with armbian just the wire network is working here. the wifi the system note see the wlan0. ice@orangepiprime:~$ ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 02:01:7c:9b:c9:7c inet addr:192.168.xxx.xxx Bcast:192.168.xxx.xxx Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::e9d4:5387:4761:295b/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:69931 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:46501 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:65169073 (65.1 MB) TX bytes:6066878 (6.0 MB) lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:65536 Metric:1 RX packets:33 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:33 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:2325 (2.3 KB) TX bytes:2325 (2.3 KB) ice@orangepiprime:~$ iwconfig lo no wireless extensions. eth0 no wireless extensions. ice@orangepiprime:~$ lsusb Bus 008 Device 002: ID 413c:2107 Dell Computer Corp.

Best regards,
martinayotte Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 The OrangePiPrime is equiped with RTL8723BS WiFi module. The driver for this module exist in Mainline 4.12, I've tried it out and it is working. But we don't wish to waste our time trying to back port it under 4.11, so we will have to wait few weeks/months when Armbian will switch to 4.12. 1
ice2642 Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 Hello martinayotte, Thank you for your answer. By the way, do you know were can I found the linux-headers-4.11.1-sun50iw2 ? with the apt not found it. Thank you.

Beta repository (where those packages are) is currently broken - but they should already be installed on the image by default. 1
