cheers for dumbing it down mate  No worries, It'll all become second nature to you soon, you have no choice if you want BTC  Thanks mate nice instructions  |

Post here your config please
Have you changed hexe diff to 64 ?
Use one there or if you are using 64 make reset to be 120 secs and make sure your pool worker diff is 64 at least
Any way put use hexe diff one in the beginning
The tplink only logs resets
Probably bad voltage clock combination
For OC use 320 clock and 860 voltage

Thank you very much Martin for that fast reply! Ok, i am curious Maybe i can catch a mr3020 today also... Thank you! Chriss, I know you love pi If you have one board it could work ok But I said many times pi is not good for heavy USB io due to its hardware design pi Ethernet is hocked up to USB pi internal switch sharing same interrupt For best results use tplink or Linux pc When you try tplink you gona love it.. |

This baby is looking good |

Excellent review as always But please do not recommend to use Pi at all. The main issue with Pi is that Ethernet is hooked up to USB internal switch. In other words Ethernet is sharing same interrupt with USB by hardware design. Which is a big disaster for heavy USB I/O. How bad would this be? Are we talking a dead pi in months or something else? We are talking about underperforming USB miners in general - no matter if they are technobit miners or other brand. The condition is Pi USB to be used as communication point. However some other manufactures use SPI for communication. In Pi SPI case i do not know if it works or not. The minor issue is that after a couple power offs / ons Pi etas SD card. You need to reinstall whole thing It is personal opinion of course Big folks are using beaglebone.... So beaglebone doesn't have this issue? I know it has mining OS for it and this should be compatible, i may need to pick one up. I am not a fan of networking and miners to be honest (although i may need to convert). Pick up tplink for Technobit products |

LOL it will be around 800 GH miner Right? I like it I wanna see tplink hashing with 6T+ marto - 8+ boards hooked to it Keep us in the loop 10X |
|

my hex8a2 has been working perfectly for a while. now suddenly hash rate drops to 0 for a few mins, then restarts but is wildly inconsistent. im running tp-link and have tried another one with latest build, different psu but still see same behavior. any ideas what i could try?
try to switch the pool first +100 And examine internet pool connection also regularly swapped pools and get exactly same error. i have a few miners on same internet connection and same pool and all are fine apart from this one. not sure what else to try now? Disable cron and tell us what is your pool worker diff A cron job restarts scgminer when you are not submitting shares to pool every 5 mins or so Do screen -r ltc and post the output when it stops. Remove quiet option also Do you have other script miners hooked up to same account worker? Do you remember if you have changed something before this begun to happen?are the board fans ok? Have you changed them? thanks for the suggestion but seems you were right first time with the net connection. a strange network issue seems to have affected just that port and a router reboot sees hashing return to normal Time to switch to openwrt for your home router also |

Well my tp-link is here, flashed with your new image set the pools and now need the minion Not long after DPD arrived with the 4 new Arctic 7 coolers been a good day just need UK customs to release the damn psu without charges Setup tz in the web ssh and exec fix_rc script-disables a lot of crap on startup which is not needed Check yor cron jobs also and remove scrypt line there and then you will be 100% ready In case you have more than one board ordered choose a USB hub wisely. It is always a good idea to use hub in between even if one board can be hooked d directly. Tplink atheros chipset does not like USB 1.0 much Finally take 5 v for tplink from psu and throw away stock adapter. If you can use common ground and power all boards plus tplink plus USB hub from single psu go for it. That is the best approach Set your workers to min diff like 128 or 256 to reduce rejects while pool is adjusting your difficulty on startup |

I'm getting just one of the minion boards at the moment but will get more, I never considered going down pi route when I have a pc on 24/7 why get another device.
Tplink is 5wats what about your PC 200-300W? |
|
|
|
So how do we get the tp-link to run of the same power supply as the miner.
Get 5V from PSU Molex to power USb HUB. Then both USB cables from tplink should be connected to that HUB BTW what boards and how many do you plan to connect to a single tplink? And sorehammer forget about PI It is sharing same interrupts for Ethernet with USb by HW design so in general PI is not good for heavy usb I/O |

pthread_tryjoin_np was working great for last two days or so. Cgminer starts up for a sec or two:) However you are removing it due to: --------------------- Remove the use of the pthread_tryjoin_np which is currently unimplemented on many platforms --------------------- If you can make it #ifdef where this is implemented will be great. PS: i have not tested two latest commits after 4.2.2 release yet Yes I know it works for Linux but many platforms don't have it implemented so I needed something cross platform hence the change to the code. The pain of writing cross platform software... Yeah i got your point Something like #ifndef WIN32 pthread_tryjoin_np #else ... #endif What about it? PS: if last two commits do same job then this is not needed of course |

Ok, so to confirm.. I can run the 5 tp-links all off the same switch. I do not need a separate switch for each 10 boards correct?
Wrong you need 5 separate switches or USB hubs for each tplink. However you can use one LAN switch to connect Ethernet cables Ok, let's see if I am getting it now... So i have 50 boards, split that into 10 segments. So with that said I have 10 boards, those 10 boards will all connect to a PSU for power. Then the 10 will go to a 10 port USB Hub connected to a TP-Link. The tplink and all boards can then be hooked up by ethernet to a large switch. Basically all 50 boards, and all tplinks go directly to a switch. Is this correct? Perhaps if Marto or someone else posted a definitive guide. I have a ton of stuff to order. That is correct except segment count 10 segments with 10 boards each equals 100 boards What psu are yo going to use? As I said you need 1000w for each two boards or so.. |

Does this image work with the TL-703N or those old wiibox controllers from Gridseed?
Most probably no... |
