Title: TerraMiners Hacked?
Post by: jax8422 on July 24, 2014, 03:19:27 AM
Hello Everyone,

 I just joined to ask for some assistance, I have 12 terraminers in the datacenter in separate rooms on separate power grids. All of a sudden overnight they all dropped to half speed 800ghs . It appears a board on each has failed but there is no logical reason for all 12 to do this at the same time and my power consumption has not changed whatsoever. Because of this I am assuming that since I had not had time to put them on a private subnet that they somewhow have been hacked to show only one board?

 A reset does not fix this issue and only returns the miner to 800mhs.

 Has anyone ran into this and is there currently a fix, clearly cointerra is not getting back to us and does not seem to want too. If the beagleboards are done can we possibly just connect the terraminers up to a machine with usb and run cgminer?

 Thanks in Advance,

CoinTerra ex employee said he left cos miners were shit quality, lots of lawsuits were being brought up and the ceo is a cheap money loving fob.

It could be your pool too, some pools often get attacked through ddos or just have technical issues causing less shares to be handed out for hashing. Try another pool for testing.

There was another post either in this forum or another about getting locked out from a terraminer after a recent hack.

ask the data center if they have yellow lights where the two power supplies plug in.   ask them to look in the back and tell you this and if all three fans are running.   Other than that, power cycle them.    Is this a real data center with controlled temp or something that was made by someone?
