I have a brand new T6 that's giving me grief. I've loaded up/separately tried FriendlyWRT, Ubuntu, and Android on an SD, plugged the SD into the T6 along with an ethernet cable, plugged the other end of the ethernet cable into my router and confirmed the cable works. I then power on the T6, it goes through the motions and shows up as a new device in my network with a fresh IP. Awesome, however...

When I try to access that fresh IP in Firefox it says "Unable to Connect". So I tried to SSH in only to get "Connection Refused". Okay... then I try the other ethernet port on the T6 only to get the same connection errors. It's obviously booting up if I'm getting an IP, but the ethernet ports aren't working.

The odd thing is on both ethernet ports of the T6, only the yellow light turns on and blinks. The green light never turns on like it normally should. And it's not my router or the cable because my Orange Pi works perfectly fine if I plug this ethernet cable into it.

What gives? Did I pull a lemon??
