Well, ladies and gentlemen, this is precisely ( one of the reasons ) why I got so angry with tkaiser !
... I'm doing my level best to help you folks prove that this problem is hardware, and he spun the issue into a confusion of software related matters that were not only confusing, but were irrelevant !
What do you expect Pine Inc to say ? No conclusive evidence for hardware failure.
The problem is not envronmental, and its not software. This is very clearly a hardware related issue, probably due to soldering quality and inconsistency of available components. The community has to keep on keeping on ! Keep collecting the data, and keep working towards finding the root cause.
My next step is to reflow the entire area of the RLT8211E chip; as well, the chip itself. This is a huge risk, but what the dickens... its a $29 dollar experiment; I probably won't hurt the board, and I may fix it. We'll see... time will tell. In the mean time, don't allow confussion to reign, and stay the course !
