The other useful command is nmcli which is the NetworkManager command
line. You could also try a plain old "ifup eth0" and see if that makes
a difference.
Looks like more digging is called for:
# ip addr show
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN
group default
link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet6 ::1/128 scope host
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast
state UP group default qlen 1000
link/ether ce:52:c8:ae:9a:66 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
# ifup eth0
/sbin/ifup: configuration for eth0 not found.
Usage: ifup <configuration>
Could it be that the MAC addr is local scope? But this is needed on
many SOC boards; not unique to Cubies.
