Title: Avalon 741 help
Post by: RunnerUp on August 13, 2017, 09:21:46 PM
I have logged into the avalon 741(using a laptop I switched IP ranges to match the Avalon) and switched the IP address range of the Avalon to match my network. 

I can now connect and log into the Avalon from my network. 

I logged into the menu and updated the pool info with "stratum+tcp://nonce.kano.is:27181", and updated the worker with username.workername, and password of x.   

The miner is not mining for some reason.  Any ideas on why it is not mining?

Do not use nonce.kano.is

Try

Stratum+Tcp://Stratum.kano.is:80

I am on a fucking iPad that auto corrects with a fucking vengeance

So the line I gave you should be all lower case.

I've changed that over and still nothing.  Everything still reads 0.

Pool - stratum+tcp://stratum.kano.is:80

Pool worker - myusername.avalon741

Password - x

I have those saved and applied.

My network settings should be fine if I can connect to it through browser, right?

I've solved the problem.

The wifi on the Avalon miner configuration tab has to be turned on for it to mine!

I thought just having the controller connected through lan cable would feed the Avalon miner an internet connection.  I guess I thought I was connecting to the miner through the browser when it's actually the controller your connecting to.

Don't forget to enable wifi in the miner advanced config options!

no  

I believe you need a 3 not a 3b+

I could be wrong  but the last I looked this was true.

I will look again for you.

Edit just looked and found this:

https://canaan.io/downloads/people/mikeqin/avalon741/openwrt/dhcp/20170719/

I  looked and you need a rasp pi 3
not a rasp pi 3 +

See link above it will do the 3 not the 3+

maybe someone has a link for the 3+  but I think you need a 3

here is a link for a rasp pi 3 at amazon

You would think so.  But I suspect they have a ton of rasp pi 3 in stock and did not bother writing a 3+

Don’t feel bad I did buy the 3+ for the 851 and had to order a 3😀

So you are not alone.
