Am I missing something?
You got 169.254.32.54 which is not invalid but a valid self assigned IP address for 'link local' use. What lenny proposes is absolutely useless since not a missing MAC address is the problem but no network connection. Instead of proposing only crappy workarounds it would've been more interesting to get the full ifconfig output to be able to nail the problem down eventually.
What you're missing might be this http://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=887&page=2 (potential relationship between underpowering and GbE Ethernet)
Until now no one asked for feedback in this area got back with information. Since they're all busy trying out stupid workarounds.
You are correct it was a 169.254 address.
I changed the MAC address as suggested and I still do not have a working Ethernet connection. Its producing the same symptoms.
I've had to take a picture of the ifconfig as without Ethernet I have no way of posting on here, so I'm sorry for the quality.
I've tried 3 different 5v 2a adapters, with different cables as well. I know I cannot guarantee that they are all working but I would like to hope at least one of them is generating the correct current. I've ordered a usb voltage meter so I can check to see how much is being drawn through the adapter and cable.
