Thank you Phil. Actually I did what the instruction says. The issue is that the LED indicator of the port on my switch does not even show the internet connection is every enabled on RB Pi. So I think it has no chance to download any uploads. Are you sure the reload can fix the NIC issue? Anyway, I am trying, will update soon. Thanks again!
We've shipped tons of these things, and I have yet to see one with a bad NIC. There have been plenty of bad SD cards though. Note that a bad SD image will fail to initialize the NIC and there will be no ethernet lights or link.Follow the reload instructions and then be sure you can see a 94meg partition with the following files:
Code:
total 24M
18K bootcode.bin
2.0K cmdline.txt
2.0K cmdline.txte
2.0K config.txt
2.0K config.txt~
20K COPYING.linux
4.0K fixup_cd.dat
6.0K fixup.dat
10K fixup_x.dat
9.4M kernel_emergency.img
8.3M kernel.img
2.0K LICENCE.broadcom
470K start_cd.elf
2.4M start.elf
3.4M start_x.elf
18K bootcode.bin
2.0K cmdline.txt
2.0K cmdline.txte
2.0K config.txt
2.0K config.txt~
20K COPYING.linux
4.0K fixup_cd.dat
6.0K fixup.dat

If not, see if you can grab another SD card (2G min) and try the image there. Seems like some people have had difficulty installing the image, so be sure to uncompress the image first and then use the proper method to write the card. Tech support can send you one if you like, simply send an email with the subject "Replacement SD card request" as the subject.

Hi Phil,
After reload I can see 94meg partition with above files(But no config.txt~ and cmdline.txte). Still does not boot. Any Idea?
Hi Phil,
It seems that it is the issue of the SD card you shipped. I replaced that card with my sandisk which is working now.
I think the SD card you provided is too thin so that the pins do not contact properly in the slot in the RB Pi. My sandisk card is much thicker and after I plug it in, I can feel solid contact. Anyway, thank you for your help. I can see it's hashing at 415G/s but for your default BTC address, will switch to my address and see.
