Title: Antminer USB Miner Showing Speed, but Errors?
Post by: Twitchie on December 13, 2015, 10:09:34 PM
I hadn't been mining in a while, but broke out an Antminer U2 USB miner this weekend. I have a different machine and got cgminer set back up on it. I wrote my StartMining.bat file. I launched it and it logged into my account at Multipool.us. It's showing activity and the green LED on the board is flashing it's head off. All seems to be working. However, my account show no logged in workers and no stats. My script is a simple one: cgminer -scrypt -o stratum+tcp://us-east.multipool.us:7777 -u Twitchie.1 -p x. I've added a screenshot of the console screen to dropbox here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/bwzaizsmba04w4b/Mining%20Resets.PNG?dl=0 (https://www.dropbox.com/s/bwzaizsmba04w4b/Mining%20Resets.PNG?dl=0) I get the same results whether I use the batch file or enter the info directly into the console at startup. Any insights would be appreciated. Thanks!

Solved: Like a dummy, I was using the scrypt port and not the sha256 port.

I have often problems with my U2
and so far I have not solved why sometimes it works and sometimes not.
