I just had to change the port from 3333 to 443 and it worked.

Thanks for your replies!

Thanks for your responses. I have got a permission from my boss, to use it at night (we have free electricity at night).

We use an outside Company to handle the IT-systems, thats why I was wondering if there was a way to bypass the firewall, without making the system less safe.

If there’s no way to do this, what do I need the IT guys to do? Open access to port 3333? Like I said, my knowledge in this area is limited, so I apologize for stupid questions.

Also I had it connected all day, trying different resets and allowing it to run for +1 hour each time...

Would disabling the firewall not leave the system at risk?

Thanks in advance!

Hi all,

I have an Antminer S9 and S7, that I wanted to set up at my work, but it seems that the connection gets blocked by a firewall.

When I plug them in at home (same ethernet cables, same psu etc), they both work perfectly. At work they will start up, light green (normal operation), but the hardware version is blank and there´s no Miner Status. The only conclussion I can come to is that it must be because of a firewall? I checked that it is DHCP etc. I also tried all three methods of reset/restore and upgrading to latest firmware.

So basically my question is: Is there a way to bypass the firewall? I´ve tried searching, but my computer knowledge is not great enough to find any useful answers...
I was thinking if I could use a router of my own connected to the ethernet of my work? Or is there any other hardware/software that can help me?

I´m using the default slushpool: stratum+tcp://stratum.slushpool.com:3333

I hope you can help me out!
Thanks in advance,
Daniel
