Good day everyone, i cannot connect my A32 Board to the Home Assistant. I followed the instruction to copy and paste the yaml file created by the admin esphome_config_A32.txt, but when i click install it has an error and wont continue.

Please guide me how to connect my A32 board to HOME ASSISTANT please.

Thanks

But, the connection is not detected by Home Assistance, nor I can see from my router network map etc. Changed ethernet cable as well. Tried resetting the board, and power off/on multiple times, still no lucky.

I am using the ESPHome script in HA, as suggested by KC. Appreciate any help or suggestion. Thanks.

I had exactly the same issue.
It's a hardware issue. You need to check if the LAN8720A chip gets hot.
If so, you need to replace it yourself or send it back to the seller.

Thanks. I did find the problem of cold solder of the chip. I have tried to fix it yet, but I can see some soldered pins are not very good.
