Does PPS payout NMC or only PPNS? Or must I point miner to merged stratum for PPS NMC mining...which one? Miner currently NOT pointing to merged. thanks
NMC is only awarded to PPLNS. There is no option to earn NMC when mining under PPS on BTC Guild. Got it, thanks! |

xxoxoxxo oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo
oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo oooooooo
178 Gh/s
Freq OC to 375
Connected via WIFI
Pretty happy with this after all of the setup issues but...
Is this acceptable/common on these machines having 5 chips out of service?

Take that back...iSpace does not seem to be working from my perspective. Once I link my miner I cant access the server sites...ispace or dsync...any ideas what's up?
Whose best to mine with or better to go solo?

Looks like iSpace pool is hashing...something funky with dsync...all restored?

Anyone know if it's okay to change miner configs "on the fly"? Probably best to turn off wifi, chage config, and reboot ...

Anyone else unable to connect to guild website?? Attack, maintainance, other?  My guess: 'Other - Local Problem'. No reports of an outage in IRC, and haven't had any problem loading it from my phone or PC all day. Thank you sir. Back online. |

Is there an advantage of increasing difficulty from 2 Gh/s default to a threshold closer to my worker's hash rate? This would improve which variable? Sorry I'm sure this has been answered in previous thread but thought I'd ask anyway. Thanks  No advantage. The pool adjusts your difficulty based on worker speeder. Higher difficulty == higher variance. M Thanks again mdude! |

Followed these instructions during config. I left blank DNS in WAN setting. Worked until I powered off and tried to login to miner control panel again.
So you are using a physical connection with your AntMiner for the internet? Have you checked your pool to ensure that it is not communicating? If the green light is flashing then it is trying to do something. You can see what error it is throwing back when you go to the system log. If you have dhcp enabled on your router it might be easier to just let the Antminer ask the router for an IP (this is what worked for me. So finally able to communicate with antminer, back to config after hard reset. But after configuring, still not able to mine... Setting on antminer config: LAN: DHCP WAN IPv4 Type: static Address: 192.168.2.33 (antminer address) Netmask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.1.1 (router gateway as well) DNS1: 50.23.239.24 DNS2: 208.67.222.222 (network DNS..are these needed?) Miner config: Pool1: stratum.btcguild.com:3333 Pool1 worker: JKBtCn_1 Pool pass: 123 After config, I connectd the antminer to the router but still no activity/mining...my computer can connect to internet via router no problems...I must be missing something... Any ideas why? It can't work, because your home network and your miner are not in the same range. Home 192.168. 1.1 Miner 192.168. 2.xxx You must setup the miner to your home range, 192.168.1.xxx , how, you can read at the first post. Alternate you could setup your home range to your miner ip range, but i suggest the first advice. If you can't reach the miner in your network with the adress, your miner is still not in and can't use your network. Thanks all who responded and esp Sushi for assisting. Finally got the antminer working via wifi. There seems to be a problem with the ethernet use and I can not access the router...must hard reset to reset password...so for now I'll continue mining thanks again for all of your useful advise...a really cool community. |

Q for BTCGuild: I live in Asia (Thailand) and wondering if I would be better off using the eu-server rather than us-server? Why?
Could just switch and find out but thought I'd ask first.
Thanks
Unless you have a really poor internet connection, I don't think it'll matter. M Thanks mdude...good to know |

You should change the LAN into “DHCP client” mode
Does this have to be changed? or can it be left at 192.168.2.xxx? I don't have DHCP server running on my router. LAN is useless for the users, so you don't need worry about that. it would be nice to see a step-by-step with a few pictures to make the process more fool-proof.
coming soon Can it be flashed through jtag if it gets bricked? Yes, but it will be mission impossible for average users to do this. In China we already have two buyers suffered this, and we have to ship them a new control board. Bitmain, My machine is locked. No mining done. Can you please send a new control board asap or recommend best resolution. Do not know best practice to short...otherwise need technical assistance to short. Thank you, JK try this : https://github.com/AntMiner/AntGen1/blob/master/manual/AntMiner%20FAQ.pdfI read that but wondering about the following step 3 in the FAQ: "Step3: Short the RESET PIN to 3.3V as the following picture for more than 3 seconds" Is this 3.3V reset done with a simple jumper wire touching these two points for 3-5 sec? Guess I a bit concerned about the "3.3V" and needing to adjust voltage, etc....thanks! |

Followed these instructions during config. I left blank DNS in WAN setting. Worked until I powered off and tried to login to miner control panel again. Do I need laptop to running mining on antminer, or I just need to use my laptop to configure pools ? AntMiner is a self contained miner, however, you need a laptop or a computer to configure via Ethernet Cable connectionCan I use raspberry pi ? Hummm Let me check... AntMiner is a self contained stand-alone minerMy router is 192.168.1.1 my laptop is 192.168.1.5 my raspberry pi is 192.168.1.7 my asic cube is 192.168.1.9 my asic blade is 192.168.1.10 Can anybody one more time explain to me how to do it step by step, I am confused  . Kind Regards Look at your AntMiner's fan. There should be a white sticker with 192.168.2.XXXX Connect your AntMiner to your Laptop via Ethernet Cable Change your Laptop's Network Setting (IP, SUbnet, Gateway) IP: 192.168.2.254
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.2.1Then, open the web browser and go to 192.168.2.XXX You'll see the control panel login screen. Username: root Password: root Go to the System Tab, then go to the Miner Configuration. Enter your mining pool info. (mining server address, worker name and worker password) Then hit SAVE&Apply Go to the Network Tab, Go to the LAN Page, your miner should be configured to be "DHCP Client", if so, Move on to Next If it's set to Static IP, then Change it to "DHCP Client" then hit Change Protocol, Then, hit Save&Apply button at the bottom Then Go to WAN Page. Set it as Static IP IP: 192.168.1.11 Subnet: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.1.1 DNS: use what you use for the current network or 8.8.8.8 Hit Save&Apply change your Laptop's IP address to what it used to be. Disconnect the Ethernet Cable from the Laptop and connect it to the Internet Router In 45 seconds to 1 minute, your AntMiner will start mining on it's own. P.S. The green LEDs the blade will start flashing, then the fan will start to spin, and the miner will start to get warmer. |

Got the Ant powered up (nice touch this round adding 6-pin power adapters). Unfortunately networks not my friend.
Using a Mac to config, set pool and wan address as discussed. LAN set as DHCP and wan setting remain static unique address (192.168.1.11) Sound correct? After attached to router, machine would not mine. I rebooted and now cannot communicate with the Ant!
Please advise!
The WAN IP from bitmain was a 192.168.2.x. Did you change it to a 192.168.2.x? Did you turn off and on the antminer after the IP change? Can you verify you have an valid IP on you mac and ping the antminer? Can you log into your router and look at the DHCP IP leases? sorry the question is did you change the antminer IP to 192.168.1.11? I tried to communicate with the Ant using 192.168.1.11 no dice. My network IPs seem fine and I am using LAN (not sure how to login to router). Just can't communicate with the Ant. I followed the instruction give by Sushi (next post) and now realize that I assigned the WAN IP address incorrectly (gave it 192.168.1.11 rather than my local router..IP 192.168.1.33..I also left blank the DNS and DNS callout?). I understand now that the miner would not be able to communicate with the router but why can I not communicate to the Ant, even if I use 192.168.1.11. Not sure what next?? How can I test if I am pinging with the Ant...sorry as I mentioned, networks not my friend...thanks. |
