Title: New to mining and trying to learn, Antminer U2 setup question Post by: jburke4 on April 06, 2015, 10:01:12 PM I'm trying to setup an Antminer U2 with multiplool but can't seem to get it to work.
I'm using the command line: bfgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://us-west.multipool.us:7777 -u [MYUSERNAME] -p x With cgminer I get "No devices detected" I see the device listed in both device manager and in Devices and Printers as Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART Bridge (Com4) It does eventually seem to find the device but It does not appear to be doing anything productive. I keep getting in an endless loop: Pool 0 difficulty changed to 16384 Also once working should I adjust the Bits per second in the hardware properties? It's currently set at 9600.

You're trying to mine the wrong algorithm :)
stratum+tcp://us-west.multipool.us:9999 is the one you want. Title: Re: New to mining and trying to learn, Antminer U2 setup question Post by: jburke4 on April 06, 2015, 10:11:36 PM Giving it a try now.
Thanks Title: Re: New to mining and trying to learn, Antminer U2 setup question Post by: jburke4 on April 06, 2015, 10:27:09 PM So far no luck, now the CMD interface is blank. Tried running it a couple times, letting it just run for a while to see if maybe there is an issue on the other end.

Here's the manual how to use them; https://bitmaintech.com/support.htm?pid=007201404130632574925y76a4v50657 You should use cgminer, not bfgminer. Title: Re: New to mining and trying to learn, Antminer U2 setup question Post by: jburke4 on April 06, 2015, 10:36:24 PM It's running now but without results. Just endlessly looping the statement about changing the difficulty.
Title: Re: New to mining and trying to learn, Antminer U2 setup question Post by: jburke4 on April 06, 2015, 10:48:13 PM Installed Zadig and configured per instructions on the website. Also using the information from multipool for their ASIC server I am using this command line:
cgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://us-east.multipool.us:8888 -u [MYUSERNAME] -p [MYPASSWORD] I am still getting the endless difficulty changing loop.

Your asic is not powerful enough. You should use "low diff ports". If you check the website's main page https://www.multipool.us/ you'll see those are for you; sha-256 ASIC (stratum) BTC low diff1: stratum+tcp://us-east.multipool.us:9999 stratum+tcp://us-west.multipool.us:9999 stratum+tcp://eu.multipool.us:9999 Title: Re: New to mining and trying to learn, Antminer U2 setup question Post by: jburke4 on April 06, 2015, 11:04:28 PM I have used all of their pools with the same result. I have even tried Antminer pool as well figured that if that doesn't work nothing will but I just get the endless difficulty changed loop. It's been running that on Antpool for about 20 minutes now.
Per the earlier advice I made a new thread at: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=76.0 Title: Re: New to mining and trying to learn, Antminer U2 setup question Post by: unsoindovo on April 07, 2015, 07:50:20 AM I'm trying to setup an Antminer U2 with multiplool but can't seem to get it to work.

I think if you post some log or screen shot it could help to understand.. and maybe it is useful to help you! ;) Title: Re: New to mining and trying to learn, Antminer U2 setup question Post by: Mikestang on April 07, 2015, 11:15:52 PM I'm trying to setup an Antminer U2 with multiplool but can't seem to get it to work.

You need to zadig it to use cgminer, then it will fire right up. |
