I just powered one of the 5Bs that I purchased during the launch. Only this board has issues. They all have the same USB brick and heatsink/fan from Allnet. What happens is that I run a few commands then I get a bunch of kernel messages, then it just freezes. Temps seem to be stable at around 32 C. …

Do I have a bad board?

I do get full 2.5G speed. I have the 8 port and it should work out to 15W per port (maybe less?).
