Watching on the sidelines. I think he needs a find a local geek to help him.
It twould appear that he might not have a router, that would explain how he does not have WiFi and where he got the public IP address. I dont think he reset the internal router correctly.

Good luck and get to hashing.

I meant to say 600 a week.

If i was lucky enough to have that mining rig, make about 600.00USD a day week, my problem would be a persistent  shit eating grin and a constant hardon, noise would not be a big issue.

End of off topic comment:

 That being said, have a look at Coolink fans. I have a Norco SS 500 5 in 3 HD hot swap bay, that came with a really noisy 80mm. Swapped  itout for a Coolink and its whisper quiet now.

I am using a dlink 7 prot hub with my R Pi.

 I am told that it can run 6 erupters without any problem. I am currently in search of a one that can support 10.  Here is a list of ones that should work. I dont think you can use any 3.0 usb hubs.

I would suggest 50btc or bitminter....I think BTCGuild is throttling new member to keep below 51%  MinePeon is what I am using works out the gate no problems.
Here are a pic of my first asic running a blistering 335 mega hash. I will be a btc millionare in a few hundred years. I am still running a gpu as well for a total of 930Mh/s. I have ordered 5 more block erupters. I will prolly stop there. I am putting most of my BTC into mining shares.

Welcome Devil Dog. BTC is pretty crazy right now. Lots of high powered equipment going online in coming  months. So for right now hold on two your cash and read, read and read some more till you had a handle on whats going on.

Hmmm I thought I had order a usb 2.0 hub. It came today and the RPi refused to mate with It is a very nice well made unit tho.

I just picked up a few more shares last night. Holding 1.2k right now.
BTW: I want to change my bitfunder email, and I dont see any place in the profile to change it. In a week, I can replenish my BTC and get more at this level.

I just ordered the Juiced Hub. I want the try it on my RPi. Currently I am using the DLink 7 port hub. I would like something that holds a few more and I dont really like that the DLink has side mounted ports rather than top.

I followed your guide and was up and running very quickly. Thanks
If the Pi boots, and you see the green led and yellow network led, you can skip the ifconfig and not bother to connect a monitor. Just log into you router and check you lan connections.
You will see minepeon the mac and the IP.

Might be a good idea to reserve that (or one you prefer) IP so it wont change.

I have a few block erupters ordered and I have a Raspberry PI and a UnRaid server to it primarlly used to store,serve and download media. I already run one VM running under VirtualBox that hosts FreePBX. The server run 24/7 anyway, so less power would be consumed than if I deicate the RPi. Anyone mining on a VM? Any reason why its not a good idea?

I weep for you as I hash at 1ghz on my 7970 and my 1 Usb  block erupter.

Congrats on the new MiniRig. Here I am waiting for a Jalapeno.
Do a brother a sold and run it on my 50miner acct for overnight. So I can buy a couple of
USB block erupters. You can pm me for the login.

KNC seem to be a popular choice, right now. 8K for 400Ghz is a pretty good price per Ghz. Providing that they and deliver as promised. I am please with the shares in a KNC group buy I purchased.
They have doupled in value. I hope to get my own KNC in the near future. I have been unemployed for a year and I just got a job, starting in two weeks.

Almost every pic I have seen posted with multiple Block Erupters show them in open air with a fan.
So I a drawer with small holes and no fan, would probably be a no.
If you had a drawer with some decent size cut outs and some sort of fan to provide air flow, that might be workable.  

You can get them for 1.05 BTC ($81.37), if you know where to look. I just want to accumulate some coin and hold for the long run. Its a hobby for me and might make a nice profit, no one can predict future BTC prices and diff is bound to level off at some pont. I have a couple of BFL units oddered April 2013 amd a full of USB Block Erupters on the way, mainly for shits and giggles.

I like the fact that the Usb Block Erupters are low power. I have a media server that run 24/7 anyway.
Its easy to set up a Linux or Windows VM to run them, or stop running XBMC on my RPI and use it.

If you dont need the BTC right away. Take a look at coinbase. Fees are very high with BitInstant.
Link in sig.

I have used Coinbase twice to buy BTC. No problems.  

For every user you invite to Coinbase who completes a purchase of 1 BTC or more, we'll send you both 0.01 BTC!

Somethint in the words, I got it one year and five days after ordering, leads me to believe that he
ordered in the few remaining days of June 2012.  

Just noticed that the auction is no longer on ebay. I wonder if the OP got his 25k or decided to mine with it.

They just wanted to here the Chinese Avalon guy say "Brutafry Rabs"
