Title: Avalon Wifi Connecting to CGMiner Interface???
Post by: dsheaffer on March 18, 2014, 04:44:56 PM
Question from a noob; so forgive me if it is basic.  I have an Avalon 50-60Gh/s machine up and running.  The Wifi interface works perfectly for mining, but I can't get to the CGminer interface via wifi; in fact i can't even ping the wifi IP address.  My router obviously sees the wifi IP address, but does not report a host name despite a host name being specified in CGMiner.

This is not a huge deal since I can directly connect from a laptop to the hardwired LAN interface on the Avalon, but it would be nice to get rid of an the Ethernet cable and still get to CGminer.  Thanks in advance for any advice.

You need to check the firewall settings for the WiFi adapter, they should match your LAN interface firewall settings.
