1  Bitcoin / Mining support / Firwall help for a dummy on: January 21, 2014, 10:58:57 PM
Hi Folks,

I have a BFL Bitforce Single using Cgminer, running on an Ubuntu Mac-Mini behind a firewall at work. Everything was great until a few weeks ago when it stopped working. I reinstalled the OS, Cgminer, etc. I was able to get it to work when I connected to my mobile hotspot, but when I connect to my LAN, no-go.

I am wondering what I can do to make it work again.

How do I configure Cgminer to access available ports.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,

Thanks for the pointers to the firewall. The crazy thing is that I turned it off for a day and then started it up, connecting without a hitch.

I am running behind a airport extreme and express to extend.

C'est la vie.

Cheers,


Hi All.

My Avalon 4 Module has been working fine, over-clocked at 350 (on OEM PSU) and suddenly not working anymore.

I can access Luci via Wifi and have re-started, rebooted and power-cycled to no avail.

When I look at the Cgminer API Log I see:
[Firmware Version] => 20131229
cgminer: 698d677
cgminer-openwrt-packages: aadd747+
luci: 346e3e7+
Socket connect failed: Connection refused

I have the API Allow set to W:127.0.0.1
I have been able to Ping and Traceroute.

I cannot figure what the heck I am doing wrong.

Thanks in advance!


cgminer is unable to get a response from a pool, so it shuts down.

check your firewall.

Help!

My Avalon 4 Module has been humming away nicely. Overclocked at 350 on an OEM PSU.  Suddenly I am offline. 

I can connect wirelessly to Luci and rebooted the system to no avail.

My API log is this:

[Firmware Version] => 20131229
cgminer: 698d677
cgminer-openwrt-packages: aadd747+
luci: 346e3e7+
Socket connect failed: Connection refused

I am trying to connect to btcguild.

Any ideas?

Cheers,

Hello,

Once again I reach out to this awesome community...

So I am using a stock PSU on my Avalon 4 module and I decided to set the clock speed to 350 and it is chugging away at 110 GH/s/

I notice that the unit's yellow LED is slowly flashing. Should I be concerned? What does it mean? What do I need to do to make it stop?

Here is a screen shot of my Cgminer Status.



Thanks!

That did the trick!

Once again I am ever grateful!



Hi All,

This is a screen grab from my 4 module. Is the miner count correct at 24?


Thanks!
Should be 32.

So I have my 4-module hashing happily at ~75Gh/s with the stock 750w psu and using the max clock settings in cgminer for my power. The Avalon Wiki says that I should bet getting :

Hashrate:90GH/s, Chip:282MHz, 750W

What am I doing wrong?
10  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Avalon ASIC users thread on: November 26, 2013, 03:58:28 AM
Hard reset is to the tplink reset settings, not the avalon.

Resetting involves powering it off and on and waiting till the blue light (at the back inside next to the network connector) starts flashing, then pushing in the tiny reset button next to the connector which will make it flash much faster. After that it's ready to connect to at 192.168.1.1. Set your laptop to 192.168.1.2 and plug the ethernet cable into it.

Then do the following:
ssh 192.168.1.1 -l root
mount_root
mtd -r erase rootfs_data

After it reboots it should be back in failsafe settings and you can log in via ethernet again on 192.168.0.100 and flash it with a good firmware.

The first step should be telnet not ssh since only telnet is enabled initially
Code:
telnet 192.168.1.1 -l root
mount_root
mtd -r erase rootfs_data


My god man! Your are awesome!  Used your Telnet instructions and then set up for home network and I am hashing! Will send you BTC tomorrow (Pacific Time).  Thank you!

Hello all,

I have been mining with a BFL 30Gh/S system and just bought an Avalon 4 Module. Tried setting it up at the office and could not get it to work with the Wifi.

I accidentally deleted the LAN config and brought it home to try and connect to my home network.

I set my Mac up to the 192.168.0.101 ip and tried using my browser to connect.... nothing - it times out.

I tried ssh from laptop - still nothing.

Is there a hard reset to restore to factory settings?

Did I brick the WR703N? If so, is my only hope to take the unit apart, solder the wire to the connection and reset?


Help!






There is a hard reset procedure, the user ckolivas describes it earlier in this thread. The instructions are also available from OpenWRT and TP-LINK on their respective websites. Note that this does not restore the Avalon factory configuration, but the base installation for the WR703N to function as a router. You will need to donwload and flash Avalon config (erroneously referred to as "firmware") from either ckolivas web repository or the Avalon wiki.

I found the post by ckolivas. 

1. I set my computer to 192.168.1.2
2. I powered on the Avalon Unit and waited for the blue router light to blink and then hit the reset switch so the light blinks fast
3. Plugged in the ethernet cables
4. Tried to ssh to 192.168.1.1 - Connection timed out

I can ping and I get response.

If I telnet to 192.168.1.2 i get @root(none)

Any ideas?  I'll happily pay anyone who can get my minier back up!

Thanks!

The name is Herb and I have been playing with Bitcoin for about two months now. My first bitcoin was recieved from the bitcoin faucet and then I had a happy transaction with Madhatter.  Since then I have had several transactions and even set up a Dwolla account. It has been fun getting to use the bitcoin-otc and learning to use pgp and tor on the mac.

I am very much interested in alternative currencies and have been following the work of Art Brock pretty closely.

I am excited to be part of this paradigm changing community.

So before this board became restrictive, I was able to post a review regarding a transaction with Madhatter (good) and posted my RV for sale... SO I guess I am a noob, but I wanted to post that I want to buy a two handled beer jockey box with my bitcoin, and thus do my part to facilitate the spread of bitcoin, so please Bitcoin Forum moderators, allow me to truck, barter and trade!

It is smogged and registered.

Would make a great burningman rig.

Okay,
I am a total noob to this. I am running a Mac and through the wiki, some guy explained that putting my wallet on an encrypted disk image would be fine. 

The other issue was that he recommended putting the whole bitcoin folder in the image.... Is that overkill?
Does that folder (which resides in the Library/Application Support) get larger over time?

Thanks for all the helpful advice!
