Hi mowglie,

EspressoBin V5 comes with Micro USB connector and there is no other way to upgrade u-boot/bootloader w/o Micro USB port.
From the look of solder pads, it looks like the Micro USB connector is peeled off from the board.
My suggestion is return that one to where you purchased from.

Best regards,

Kevin

Hi,
Does it come with a microSD card when you bought it from Amazon?

Hi,
The miniPCIe slot only supports USB mode so need to adjust jumper to USB interface mode then plug in WiFi card into miniPCIe slot.
A picture of how to set the jumper and new image for dual Wifi support can be downloaded from below link. Update method can be found in file name ccpe-recovery.txt

Hi,

Marvell 3720 can support two 2.5G serdes(HS-SGMII).
Topaz CPU port can set to highest 2.5G.
EspressoBin V7 won’t be able to enable 2.5G mode since it is using RGMII(not serdes). RGMII supports highest 1G only.

thanks

Kevin
