In other words, have you tried connecting it to your pool? Title: Re: [HELP] Antminer s2 Hardware x.x.x.x Post by: HagssFIN on June 20, 2017, 08:32:53 PM Have you tried setting up the miner first?

Have you opened the case to make sure all of the blades are properly seated? In early s2 batches the cards were not secured in place and often came out/broke. You sure the PSU in it is working? (PSU failure was a big issue with the s2's). It does not need to have all the hash blades plugged in so try running just 1, then 2, then 3, etc. Give it enough time to fully boot, as I recall they are alive in about 2 minutes. What pool? Do you have other miners pointed at it and working? Got the username & pw (usually just x is fine) right? |
