    Am setting up my OSBo and the top of the case covers some of the Ethernet port. This makes it impossible to plug in an Ethernet cable into the BeagleBone Black. Have tried turning the BeagleBone Black around but then the other stuff does not line up.

    Did I do something wrong or is the case not cut correctly?

    The OSBo currently uses the same enclosure as OSPi, and so there is no special cutout for the Ethernet jack. Sorry about the confusion. Since it’s designed to mainly work with a WiFi USB dongle, I recommend getting an Edimax WiFi USB dongle. If you have to use an Ethernet cable, you can use a Dremel to enlarge the cutout.

    Forgot to mention: a batch of case tailored to OSBo has been ordered and it should be available around mid-December. The new case will have cutout for the Ethernet cable, and we can do a free exchange if you want.

    Yes, I would like to exchange the covers, if it isn’t to much trouble.

    Thank You

    Coming back to this thread: the new enclosure for OSBo is now in stock. It has enlarged cutout to fit an Ethernet cable. You can shoot an email to [email protected] to arrange for an exchange.
