We will stand and fight.
 it will not work if there is no hub between the 703N and controller board.

Well, unfortunately it didn't just work. My Avalon#1 running maybe few seconds after every reboot then always stop working. I'll continue working on the problem next day. Thanks for all the help from you guys.
If you log into the web interface, what does the Status -> Overview ->

Status
 System
 Firmware Version

say?

OpenWrt Barrier Breaker r35097 / LuCI Trunk (trunk+svn9610)
      
is working fine.

no clue on how to relate that to the release names at

http://downloads.qi-hardware.com/people/xiangfu/avalon/

though...

edit: OK if you download the file http://downloads.qi-hardware.com/people/xiangfu/avalon/openwrt-ar71xx-generic-tl-wr703n-v1-squashfs-factory-20130225.bin

you'll find in the header the referrence

Code:
OpenWrt
r35097

so that is the version shipping out on the current working Avalon

upgrade your firmware to 20130225 version. http://downloads.qi-hardware.com/people/xiangfu/avalon/

Update: you still have to use the hub as ngzhang says. huh

No blue light from the front side or from the ethernet board inside the case. The USB hub inside the case showed red light.

USB hub has a red light.

WR703N has a blue light.

WR703N is powered by USB hub via a USB cable.

If WR703N is connected well with USB hub, you could see that blue light.

you may pick the 703n out of the box & use micro usb to power the 703n. alternately you can use a longer USB A-to-B type cable to get rid of the usb hub.

OK... I connected Avalon to my laptop's ethernet port then switch the power on, but the light of ethernet port was dark. So I switch off the power for now. Was there something I missed out? Huh
Connect using an ethernet switch.

1) Connect laptop to ethernet switch
2) Connect Avalon to same ethernet switch

Are USb cables OK?

check if J5 is in please also
From FAQ

Connect to PC

Notice if you want to plug the USB to a computer instead of 703N (Ethernet board), you must remove the Jumper on the controller board. the jumper's label is P5, next to the USB port.
So the jumper must be there not removed
As an alternative you can remove Jumper P5 and plug the usb cable which connected the usb hub in your PC. You should see (windows) new hardware found USb bla bla
doing this you will know that the problem is inside the white USB switch or Ethernet board itself  But you have to remove the jumper when doing PC test

read my review: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/my-impression-of-avalon-machine-cooling-info-updated-145885

can you see a tiny blue light from the front side (not the backside or fan)?

Cable probably? It may be damaged one. Other stuff as long as Wr703 is powered via usb there were reports of not connected (loose) cable because of transportation. Remove the cover of the unit and make sure all cables are in place especially USB
Is it OK? crossover or straight. Other way to go is to use network switch switch or LAN of the soho router
