Orange Pi PC working network?

USB configuration probllem:
on loboris fresh SD builds all three USBs and wired Ethernet work after a fresh SD build.
After I reconfigure (move USB ports) between mouse, keyboard and USB hub, fewer and fewer USB ports recognize these peripherals; to the point where neither mouse nor keyboard is recognized on any USB port. This persists over power down/up. Putty/ lsusb shows neither keyboard or mouse connected on any USB port. I have to rebuild the identical SD to get my mouse etc recognized. (the same experiment on RaspberryPi2 and Ubuntu-Mate works without problem)
I suspect:
Hardware is not properly reset/master cleared on Power up.
Software does not reset USB configuration on boot.
This might explain why so many users have USB problems, me included.

After burning the image to the SDCard, download scriptbin_kernel.tar.gz from Mega or GoogleDrive.

Greetings!

First, thank you Loboris for all the pioneering work on this device.

I have bought the OPi-PC with the OPi PC enclosure and a USB to DC adapter cable.

I've tried this recipe with OrangePI_Jessie_Xfce.img and OrangePI-PC_Ubuntu_Vivid_Mate.img. In both instances, Ethernet fails to work and the single vertical USB port also fails. The two horizontal USB ports work.

There is one red light on the board that stays on continuously. The Ethernet lights also stay on continuously, regardless of whether Ethernet is plugged in. Vivid_Mate tells me directly that there is no connection.

I tried Loboris' Vivid_Mate image as-is, since some of the later posts have suggested it works that way. It didn't. I also tried the recipe in this thread. That didn't work either. I'm relatively good at following directions.

I want this device to work. I want to give Steven Zhao five stars on Aliexpress...

However, I suspect the device I received truly is defective. I'd be grateful for insights from others. I can live with only two USB ports, but I may have to dispute the purchase if I can't get it to actually use ethernet.

I was finally able to get it to work.
I mistakenly used script.bin.OPI-PLUS_xxxxpyy instead of script.bin.OPI-PC_xxxxpyy .
Everything now works as expected.
Thank you, Loboris.

Any luck to make the "networking enabled" on Lubuntu Vivid 15.04 ? (not Ubuntu Mate vivid or debian) ...
