Hello,
I am using A64-OLinuXino-bionic-base-20201008-215447.img through eMMC to boot A64. Package has been updated through apt-get. SIMCOMM 7000 modem is connected over USB. Sometimes it disconnect and reconnect. I checked with two modems. A64 Rev E board is supplied with 5V 2A adapter.

Please suggest possible solution.
It is power-hungry module with spikes up to 2A, might have trouble powering it via the USB since the high spikes might make it looks like short-circuit, maybe try adding capacitors or something like USB-CAP:

Please provide information for below points:
1) How many USB ports are supported by A64? In case these ports are actually supported through USB HUB, could you share documentation regarding USB HUB design in A64 processor/board.
2.) For official bionic release (http://images.olimex.com/release/a64/), please share the source code git path.
