Also, every single time it disconnects it changes my pool to - stratum+tcp://stratum+tcp://us-east.stratum.slushpool.com:3333 and the username to Topminer.01 with a password of X It almost seems like my miner is compromised because it makes no sense on why it reverts to some random slushpool account, I've tried to mine on over 10 different pools and it'll mine great for 1-3 days then I'll experience the same exact thing where it just stops mining, changes the pool back to slushpool and restarts itself.. It DOES connect to this slushpool and it hashes.. but I can't login to the slushpool website and find that Topminer.01 at all, it seems like someone is stealing my hashes. Sounds like your network or another device on your network is compromised. I would try reflashing your SD card to stock, if you still see it happening then someone is gaining access to your Apollo through another device on your network. You can also change the default account/ssh password on your Apollo as well using the UI settings (we will have the dashboard password apply as the system password automaticly for additional security in the next update). I have been having the same issue. I'm going to try and reflash. and see what happens. Also had the same issue. I have just placed the Apollo over 2 big fans and the temp in turbo is around 40-42C and the board stays at 62-63C, big difference from before. Tha hash rate is also aroun 3.07Gb. It seems to be stable for now so I think the temperature is the issue. External USB fans under the Apollo is the way to go! My temps arethe same range as yours in turbo mode. Correct. I suspected the temp as the issue but I wasn't 100%, I will see in a couple of days I guess....

Yes especially if the node is still syncing. This will nearly max out mem/cpu until its complete, nothing to worry about though as it also uses fast system swap memory on the SSD as well. FYI Bitcoin Mag put out a cool article/getting started on the Apollo (setup instructions are even better than mine haha). Check it out! https://bitcoinmagazine.com/guides/how-to-use-futurebit-apollo-bitcoin-node-miner The node is not syncing anymore but it still stays in the RED (3GB) for memory. Also, I know I have read in the past that a lightning node will be implemented in the FutureBit software, are you any closer to doing that? It is very hard for people like me to adapt the regular node setup to the specifics of the Apollo node so a guide for the Apollo it is the only way to be able to achieve that. I have no Linux experience so you can imagine how difficult it is... Please help people like me that support your work by buying the hardware to be able to use it at its capacity. Thank you.

I have just received my batch 3 node and I am still synching with the btc blockchain so I chose to turn of the miner until it is finished but it keeps starting randomly to mine and if I stop it the red led keeps flashing fast or it stops but after a while it starts flashing fast again, I have noticed I have to click 2 times on the STOP MINER button at a minute or so interval to make the red led go solid. Is this normal? Thanks.

I have been trying to find out myself. It must be top secret As was mentioned already a few times, the Apollo is mostly a normal (SBC) computer, so the C-Lightning install guide should work just fine. But since I like making guides, and will soon receive my Apollo, I'll probably make a guide just for it, since it has been requested so much.. Thank you very much in advance for doing that, I think a lot of us would appreciate it.

I have been searching the forum for how to setup the Apollo with a lightning node and did not find anything. Could anyone point me in the right direction ? Thank you.
