Anybody who has purchased HOSTING *ACTIVE 5/02/14* see their miner hashing? I purchased one and still no action yet.....

If I order 3 of the blades that are hosted for a year, when will they start hashing? I know they say 05/02/2014.. Will they start then?
Hi, They will start mid-day tomorrow! Thanks Isn't mid-day 12:00PM? The middle of the day, as 12 hours past the 24 hour point? Not trying to be an ass but when i read mid-day that means 12:00PM. And I was assuming the Eastern Standard Time (EST), that's the time zone GAW is in.... |

Damn, why can't these companies get their stuff together. I was ready to buy a rig now I question whether it is worth the wait and/or hassle if this is not legit. I guess I will have to wait and see the specs on the S2.
If these companies got their shit together like say Starbucks, then everyone would want one. Bitcoin mining is a risky business, that's why some people enjoy it... [edit] must admit I have my eye on one of these - will use paypal if I do which is easier to charge-back than even a credit card... is it just me? I unable to paid with PayPay. I only see credit card paymentn option |

I finaly received the activation code aobut 1 and 1/2 hours later. Entered the code and it's working. No $5.00 worth of bitcoin. Guess I am not one of the first 1,000 user.
Seriously, why in the world would KNC want their own wallet program? How does it benefit them? I could think of several venues: 1. the will make this 'wallet' a default for planB 2. they will get money from those who will send ads to people with bitcoin 3. they want to help snooping by those who think they are entitled to it (what do we know about this company anyway?) 4. they will charge you a little extra for bitcoin transfers 5. they want to become a bitcoin bank with possible P2P lending. afterall, Kinemaar background is in banking IT. Why would anyone use online, internet wallets, smart phone wallets, or keeping their BTC's online is asking for trouble. If you do, you are at their (exchanges') dictatorship. Look at Mtgox, BTC-E or any online wallet/exchanges. Can't withdrawal BTC or cash means your BTC is worthless. I keep a majority (of my BTC's) on my QT and transfer a few (into exchanges) just before I sell; in and out. |

The app doesn't work on my USA phone. I keep getting an error code, "Error sending SMS please try again (500)". I rated the app a 1 star on the Play Store.
Edited to add. I finaly received the activation code aobut 1 and 1/2 hours later. Entered the code and it's working. No $5.00 worth of bitcoin. Guess I am not one of the first 1,000 user.

Got my US dollar $13,200.20 Neptune refunded today, 2014-02-19. I originally initialed my refund request on 2014-02-10. I asked for US dollar refund as I paid via bank wire and did not Know at the time that bitcoin BTC refund was available. The wire amount I received is $18.00 less (i guess bank fee?). It took a total of 9 days from initiation to actually have the money hit my bank account. I provide the following (US) bank information when requesting refund: My Name: XXX XXX Bank name: XXX Bank,N.A. Bank Account #: XXXXXXXXX Bank address: XXX XXX Street, New York, NY 10013, USA Citibank SWIFT Code: CITI US 33 Bank Routing #: XXXXXXXXX Still have a CA Neptune that I paid about 11 BTC. I will wait and see on this one. As to the US dollar refund, I will buy more BTC if it goes below $500.00 Refunded. Wire charges amount to $18. So, Thursday refunds don't arrive on Tuesday but Wednesdays.
Congratulations on getting your refund. How did you go about contacting them for a refund? I've emailed them several days ago and received no response. My email asked what information they specifically need to process a refund, giving my order numbers in advance. Previously I'd receive a response within a day or two, but not now. I'm not really keen on the idea of spending hours dialing their phone number and spending up to hundreds of dollars in phone expense and the time lost - time is money after all. Thanks in advance. Contact: Customer Service < customerservice@kncminer.com> Can't seem to locate the email describing what is needed. Obviously the order number to be refunded, name and address of the bank, the bank routing number, the name of the person holding the account, the account number and the bank's SWIFT code (for US banks). Feeling good about the refund but I know as soon as guys start getting their Neptunes I'll be kicking myself. |

Hi Bitmain & shshi, I have sent in the dead blade and it been delivered on 2014-01-31 to the Colorado address for over a week now. As of today, 2014-02-07,I still have not received anything back. Do you think you can send me a tracking number or the status of the RMA? I have lost 3 weeks of hashing time now. Hi shshi, I sent in a RMA blade per Bitmain's instruction. It showed as being delivered. When can I expect to receive the replacement? thanks Hi, I sent in the dead blade. my tracking number shows that it was delivered. Do you know how long the process take? Will I receive a ship tracking number once it's shipped out from RMA? thanks
Hi sushi, do you receive the returning board? please help to follow up this case. thanks! Hi Billsonl,
Please ship back the DOA units, and we will replace you a new one after we receiving it.
Yoshi Goto 25587 Conifer Road Suite 105217 Conifer, Colorado 80443 USA 303-900-8780
I managed to get one of the blade working. So, there is only 1 dead blade. Do i just sent back the dead blade? thanks Yes, just the dead one. |

is there anyone that solo mines using the antminer s1??? if so can you share how?
Is it usually very difficult to get a reply from sushi in regards to a faulty board? I bought from Bitmain directly and he told me to contact Sushi during the CNY. Even sushi himself send me an email: While Bitmain is off due to the Chinese New Year, if you need any support issues, Please contact me and I will assist you with your need!
SUSHI
it's very difficult/ almost impossible to get any kind of support from either Bitmain or sushi. On 2014-01-24 I received a Dead on Arrival Antminer S1. Contacted Bitmain and he forwarded my request to sushi on 2014-01-26. sushi never replied. On 2014-01-31, the bad board was delivered to the RMA address in the USA per Bitmain's insturctions. On 2014-02-01 I contacted Bitmain about the status. Again he forwarded my PM to Shushi. As of today, nothing, no status, no board. Almost 2 weeks of lost mining time and no board...Just my expericence |

Has anyone RMA an AntMiner S1? How long does the process take? I sent in a RMA per BitMain's PM direction on 2014-01-26 to an address in the US (the address turns out to be an UPS store). There is no RMA # given or any kind of tracking number on BitMain's website to track the status. Hi Billsonl,
Please ship back the DOA units, and we will replace you a new one after we receiving it.

yes opentoe, 51 from me, 18 from my brother, we got scammed, bigtime.
Hey Phoenix! I'm a lurker watching U people changing the world with bitcoin the NEW means of exchange for the internet era!  NWO is really the order when we the good people of the world will force the Bank of International Settlements in Basel (BIS) and the 'print €$hitcoins at will and give to mafia sisters BOE, FED, BOJ, ECB et al. 'change their fraud or vanish...  You're one of the pioneers in this gift from some god giving society a world changing development... Re: "lost 51 BTC and brother 18" ... lets try and track the fraudsters and see where it leads... May be they bought antminers.. sushi can send the miners/btc back to you? Anyways, I like everything you have said (watched you on the KNC thread for a year) and your enthusiasm! P.S. #FRAUD mafia of central bankers colluding with corrupt politicians and corporate lobbying shills are going down!!!11!!1 Thanks for the moral support Hatti. I'm offering a 50% Bounty commission for the successful aid in my btc recoveryalso... While my brother was on the chat having the plug pulled, I was saving & snipping before everything disappeared. I saved every page of the website, and a copy of my transaction invoice pages, and zipped them up into a nice little folder, and have posted it on dropbox to aid in investigation. heres the link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qd08jjglb1ga17l/CTS%20website%20copy.zipmost other info can be found in the other thread, where it needs to stay, I did not mean for this to take any space in here. the thread is here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=429513did you save that op post here on bitcointalk.org? the op can delete his/her own post here.. |

how did you set up wifi without an antenna? Actually I get pretty decent signal without antennas. They aren't necessary in most situations. Can you share how you were able to set up wifi...i tried playing with it and couldn't get it to work and had to use RJ-45 cables. It would be nice if i can use wifi so it's more mobile. thanks for your help. I made direct LAN connections first (laptop -> Ant), then Network -> WWAN -> Scan -> Connect -> set wifi password etc. -> save and apply -> and then go to interfaces -> find WWAN (name of the wifi network) and click Connect thanks for your assistance, i was able to set up WiFi thru Ethernet connections. Once WiFi is set up, i rebooted and remove RJ-45 cable. Now it's hashing via WiFi. I can see that it's hashing at the pool. But I have one minor issue, I can not access the web interface using the WiFi ip address, it loads up for "LuCI - Lua Configuration Interface" a second but then get the "can not connect" error message. |

i just received my 5th one and i cant log on to it. 192.168.1.99 is the ip, but i ipscan it and nothing comes up. my other miners are 2.xxx, is the 1.99 the problem?
Is your subnet .1 or .2? im not sure what you mean but IP Address: 192.168.2.254 Subnet: 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway: 192.168.2.1 this is what i have in antminer ip 192.168.1.99 all my other ants are 192.168.2.xxx You need to bring the new Ant 192.168.1.99 to your network 192.168.2.x. Set a laptop/PC/tablet on 192.168.1.188 and configure the new Ant 192.168.1.99 and change the address to whatever you have reserved for it on the 192.168.2.x network. Don't forget the IP default gateway is 192.168.2.1 and DNS 8.8.8.8. Subnet mask should still be the same on both subnets 255.255.255.0, so no change there. ok thanks for your help. I will give it another try this weekend when i have some time. I tried following the instructions in the first page but it was saying that i need to buy some kind of wifi thing in Best Buy.. |

 those pics indicate months of use, and they did say units are new and only seen days of use. we should all support the member as right is right. hopefully Bitmain takes care of the issure, which i think they will but I also thing they might not if people are so indifferent. I dont want a used machine, and no one wants a heavily used machine which might die too soon... What version number do you have written on this AntMiner? I have several (from 3 different revisions) and all of them have been pristine clean. see photo  |

While the guy has a legitimate concern with getting used equipment, it seems that bitmain has reached out to the person. They have done more than most asic companies has done.
I am ok with getting used equipment as long as it works and it's it specially stated so. I paid for a new unit. However, it's a dead unit. I removed the controller to the other blade and get half a machine working. Bitmain pm me earlier with a rma address that is located in my USA. will update the rma process |

This doesn't make sense to me. How do you explain that the AntMiner S1's I received were prefilled with Bitmain's own pool addresses on all 3 fields?
Respectfully, what alternative method do you recommend they use to test their products ? It makes perfect sense to me, and I don't see what the problem is. Have you seen some of the photos I posted on the previously page? Your opinion might change. |

For those who missed the explanation on the dust, Dust on some S1 miners delivered recently:
Our testing farm is not dust free, so more or less our miner will have dust on it. They are all new miners. But as the testing farm is under construction, and lots of dust during the construction, so a miner which has been tested for only 24 hours there, will have dust on it. The dust does not mean it has been mined for months before we ship it out. The construction has almost finished.
The PCB were produced in batch, and the same batch of PCB will be enough for 1 or 2 month production. The aging test usually lasts for 24 hours, some of them will stay in the testing farm for about 3~5 days.
The warranty is always the 90 days.
