Hello,
I'm since yesterday trying for hours to connect my miner to the internet. But now I can't even connect to his ip via browser! Anyone using Teamviewer to help me out? I will give some thank$ after I get money with my Antminer S1. I'm desperate!
Detail: My ISP only allows me to connect to the internet if I insert my username and password.

Hi friend. Can I make a suggestion?
It may be worth a security shakedown before going any further. Teamviewer can open you to intrusion and possibly theft. It does not necessarily do that, but consider that TV allows others to remotely control your PC. Be careful. I also suggest not posting your account login info on the internet. It would be easy to determine your ISP and take your account. You may know all this and have a plan. But just in case I thought I would give you a heads up.
-Cheers

Ok, thank you very much for warning me. I know it's a little risky to allow a strange to use my computer, but TV lets the person use remotely only while I'm allowing to do so, correct? By the way, I reset my miner and got it working... Well, at least connecting to the interface via browser, though I still can't connect to the internet to start mining.
Can you help me via TV? Please!

Have you tried the simple YT video? What all have you tried?

If you can connect to the Ant via browser, you just have to configure your mining pools in the Miner configuration screen.

Never you this Teamviewer its not a safe I have very bad experience with this and lost my money

I would if I knew anything about mining. I have only played with mining years ago and the chances of me screwing up your computer are greater than me fixing it.  :-[
Also, I have kinda forgotten how to use Windows. After switching to Linux it's like going back to DOS 5.1.

Yes, I configured by using this youtube video as example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=akw9GAeIH5k
Nice guide, though didn't work in my case. But I'm unskilled when talking about configurating networks. ;\

Ok, then. I'm using Fedora, btw :D

I'm just going to go back to my cave now. lol   :-X

I do use teamviewer and I agree it is risky. But if you want to use it and take the risky part away, never access anything important on your teamviewer machine, delete any stored passwords from the browsers, and if someone takes control, it will only take control of your miners until you realize it which won't be long.

Taking that out, it sounds that you have a network issue. I don't have an antminer, nor a blade, but I believe that you ought to simply give internet to it and point it to the pool.

Now here is the tricky part, you say you ought to use username and password to connect to the internet. That username and password is written in the router itself, or directly in a pc?

How is the antminer connected to the network?

If your pc is already connected to the network and the antminer is connected to a different network card in the pc there is no need to place the user & password again, you can bridge both connections and the pc will share internet with the antminer.

Now if both the pc and the antminer are connected to a hub or router and the router has no option to input the user and pass you will have to modify your network setup in order to give internet to the antminer. If your ISP makes you use user & pass I don't think it will let you connect twice with the credentials, you have to make one connection and share it between all the network.

Hopefully you will sort it out  :P

PD: I think in ubuntu to share the network connection you have to change the ipv4 settings from dhcp to shared, I don't know about fedora, but it shouldn't be too different.

I need to type the username and password via browser, directly from pc. That sucks, I know.  :'(
I'm trying to see what happens when I [try to] connect by changing dhcp to shared, as you wrote. ;)

Please give detail how you connect to internet?
What is devices you used(usb modem, cable modem, router etc)?

I'm using a router with wifi, which is not the correct devide to use with my type of connection (adsl via radio). I just sent it to maintenance to see if there's something wrong with my device or my type of connection. Surely it's a problem or with my type of connection (via radio), or with my inappropriate device for this type of connection (which I discovered that is recommended a modem with wifi, not a router with wifi, if using via radio internet)...

Or maybe is a problem with both.  :o
By the way, my android is unable to connect to the internet too. A problem in my network, for sure! But today at the end of the day I will know. My router is in the maintenance already, to be realized tests.

Do you have a router ??? If not then you may need a switch & you'll need to know the IP to gain access to your modem/router,like 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.2.1 or something.

Can you post a screenshot of your "network",like this:

Open cmd & type ipconfig.

Looking for the "Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1",yours may be different,that may be why your having issues  ;)

I'm using a modem with wifi... Well... I think  :P
This is my modem:

And this is the type of connection which I'm using, unfortunately:

Just to remember: I'm forced to type my username and password to be able to connect.

Ok,soooo just get ethernet cable to your Ant & plug in the back,to one of the 4 ethernet ports,& you SHOULD be able to just open a browser & type the IP on the Ant,192.168.1.99 & go from there.

It looks like your modem is 192.168.1.1,but you shouldn't need to go there.

You MAY want to connect your PC/laptop via Ethernet as well,so you are definitely on the same "network" so to speak.

If still a no go,reset the Ant by the little reset button:

I see, you use PPPoE connection. If you already set your router to use PPPoE, then you don't need to give username & password each time you want to connect since you can fill in username & password on router.

Yes, teamviewiever is not very safe option to use, be carefull

YAY! I got my miner working!! For those having the same issue (considering that I'm using internet via radio - which sucks):

I simply enabled DHCP while I was with both my miner and pc connected through the router (intelbras GWM 1420N).

These are the steps done:

1. Type 192.168.1.99 (or whatever is your miner ip);
2. Before going to the step three, check if your miner pool is correctly set;
3. In networks go to WAN, by clicking in "edit";
4. Switch from static ip to dhcp - note that this was in the manual or FAQ, I don't remember (dooh!);
5. Wait until a green led starts to flash outside the miner and a growing noise start to appear  8);

Note that after you've done the step 4, you may be unable to access the miner, though it's mining already. Maybe you will still be able to access the miner, but that is not my case - my connection sucks, remember?

Ah, and my ISP didn't ask for login credentials. It asks only one time. After logging through browser, it won't ask again. My bad, sorry.

Thanks everyone!  :D
