Try changing pool to BTCGuild or Eligius.  Sometimes those smaller pools are iffy.

You can't sell your PBmining contract after a couple months though.

That's where the Antminer wins by a large margin.  Boom, profit!   Tongue

Hope it's not an ominous sign of anything.

I want to stick around at these rates.   Cool

Yes, the Antminers run on the same subnet.

For your mining configuration, try just entering this:

Pool1     p2pool.org:9332
Pool1 worker     Bitcoin address
Password     anything


Save and apply, give it a minute, then check status again.
5285  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: AntMiner S1 (new model) no status on: April 09, 2014, 05:45:29 PM
Your IPv4 Broadcast has to be 192.168.1.255 and your Primary DNS should be set to 8.8.8.8

Save and Apply, give it a minute or 2, then check Miner Status and check your pool website again.

What is your complete WAN Interface setup including mask and DNS?

Post here so we can further help you.

While everyone is growing tired and ZZZZzz-ing, it give us Bitcoiners a great buying opportunity.

If you believe in it, no need to quit now.  Let it grow out of these growing pains.
5288  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Are the small usb miners worth it? on: April 09, 2014, 04:40:28 PM
I'll start off by saying that I am currently using my gaming rig as a miner and that gets me around 560 kh/s (R9 280x in my current card) and I was wondering if the little usb mining dongles I see on ebay are worth it?

Code:
http://www.ebay.ca/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&_nkw=usb+bitcoin+miner&_sop=12

Like these for example.

If I am guessing this right (which is all it is, a guess as I've been in this mining stuff for 2-3 days now) 2 of those dongles (depending on what ones I got) would give me around the same khash rate that my card is currently giving me, but with a lot less power being used. In particular I was looking at this one:

Code:
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/1-ASICMiner-Block-Erupter-USB-Bitcoin-ASIC-miner-330Mh-s-In-Hand-Ready-To-Ship-/201062264962?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2ed03eb082

With the bitcoin pool I am in right now, I get around 0.00219831 BTC per day (not quite a day because I used my PC for it's actual purpose of gaming for a few hours yesterday) but with a lot of wear and tear on my GPU, which, in reality I would much rather use for gaming. I did put around $1400 into this rig after all lol.

So long question short (to late for that?) is it worth getting a few of those smaller usb dongles to save wear and tear on my GPU?

Also, anyone curious as to the pool I'm currently with, it can be found here on these forums.
Code:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=448649.0

Many of you likely already know of the pool.

Thank you for taking the time to read this, and I look forward to your responses.

Silly question, but why did you use the Code instead of URL for your links?

The old one is fine for promotion and marketing Bitcoin.

The new one is fine for unicode, writing, and hopefully incorporating into our keyboards soon.
That's pretty easy. I already did it for German Keyboards
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=527447.msg5856310#msg5856310

and somebody else did it, with US Keyboard
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=60152.0

btw. reminds me about old Nazi Polls, where the Symbol you want People to "vote" is much bigger, than the Symbol you don't want People to choose:




That's not the new symbol with the horizontal dash through the B on the links you sent me though.

I will be in the US some time from now and I'm planning to buy one more S1.

Anyone from US can clarify for me if I need to pay import taxes when ordering from US soil ?

Nope, no import taxes from China to US on "computer hardware".

Post screen shots of your miner configuration and WAN interface configuration here so we can help you out.  Cross out any sensitive information like workername and password.

Better to just buy from pbmining. Less trouble

Isn't that a 5 year contract?

Who wants to be locked into a 5 year contract without a way out?
5294  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Let's get the facts straight about Apple. on: April 09, 2014, 03:19:35 AM
Libre office, free

iLife / iWork: Free.
OS X Upgrades: Free

Apple is fucking disgrace. All of the tech giants and social media are a fucking disgrace.

Why?

For the backdoors they created for N.o S.uch A.gency.

Fuck Apple

Yep, and your beloved Google / MS / Other doesn't, right? LMAO LMAO. You are fucking pathetic and so stupidly naive to think that Google / MS / Other don't sell your info and have backdoors. Hell, didn't Relient OS developers find a "backdoor" in the Galaxy line of phone and the Nexus One? Yep! They did. Wow, I wonder who uses it. Let me guess; some three letter ass hat office call the NSA.

How much do you get paid at the Apple store, MAC Genius?   Cheesy

Anyone else NOT been able to access bitmain's website?  I check it every couple of days to see if anything is in stock again, but getting nothing today. Huh

Confirmed down....hope it's nothing "serious" after thousands of orders.

Maybe it's the OpenSSL issue:

5296  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Any miner worth buying right now on: April 09, 2014, 12:08:45 AM
ASICs is not very good in long term, try to get gpu rig and mine early launched coins, then sellthem when they hit the exchanges.

Mining with GPU's is even more dead.  Once Alpha-T Viper and KNC Titan Asic Scrypt Miners hit the market, it's over for those AMD R9 rigs.

The advantage with GPUs is you can always sell (or use) them later. My home system just got a free R9 290 upgrade since I've shutdown a small scrypt farm.

The issue is dedicated H/W. For example I have a single BFL FPGA single sitting around waiting to go in the trash. There is nothing else to do with it.

ASIC H/W that is power efficient will at least last several years where you can run it at around break even. However ASIC H/W that is not power efficient only has a short lifetime since better H/W makes it unprofitable to even turn on.

This is why buying early ASICs was always a losing option, you are buying something that is guaranteed to have a short lifetime and long ROI...

You won't be able to sell those GPU's when the market will be flooded with R9 290x's after all Scrypt miners shut their rigs down due to the massive network hash jump.  A few pennies a day isn't worth it running a 5 or 6 card GPU rig, especially with the electrical costs.

With Asic's you always have the good people of EBay.   Grin

Those GPUs are already flooding eBay and the prices are depressed but holding up because the GPU market is larger than the scrypt mining market. I just sold one for a ~33% loss over December pricing, disappointing but still profitable with mining factored in.

If those were unprofitable ASICs that had to be scraped, then I would have lost money.

I agree that now's the time to unload the GPU's before all the big Scrypt Asics come out.

Depends on the ASIC.  The KNC Jupiters from last year still sell for a premium.

Well, you seem to be quite the fucking asshole. How is that for a first post?

Fuck you and Fuck Apple. Fuck off.

Please elaborate.  Didn't get the point! Roll Eyes
5298  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: KNC Mining New Plan "B" on: April 08, 2014, 08:29:12 PM
Guess they printed so much BTC they turned heel on us miners. 

In 2013 all you heard was how KNC was the greatest thing to happen to the mining world.

How quickly things change in this industry....
5299  Economy / Services / Re: ★★★ HIGHEST SIGNATURE PAYMENT ON THE BOARD - NEW RATES - RitzGrandCasino.com ★★★ on: April 08, 2014, 08:25:58 PM
I don't understand why I am the only one who left positive feedback on RitzGrandCasinos profile altough we all got paid?

Quite a few people left him positive feedback. You probably have untrusted feedback hidden by default. You can change it in your settings or just click show it I think.

I too left positive feedback for Ritz.  He left me positive feedback in turn for advertising his campaign.

Feel the love... Kiss

I need me some renders and pictures badly!
