Back in the saddle.  Yes, it was a network issue, the crappy netgear switch I was using has a bunch of dead ports, I was testing on one of the good ports.  Thanks again for the advice everyone.

I have pretty much enough free power for a small 6000 watt farm.  Not going to quit yet.  It's more of a hobby than anything at this point and it's older equipment that would be paid for in 6 months or so if I can keep them running.

Any advice on what to do next?

How many doors you got in home? You can always use them as door stoppers.

Mining is no joke. If you somehow manage to make them work, hopefully you'll sell them and buy the thing you mine instead. You probably realized that mining makes no sense if you are a small time miner.

I'll try reloading the OS from an SD card and see if I get anywhere.

Have you tried factory default reset for one S9 as a test?

No, I am able to ping the wireless hub and a computer connected to the switch on the hub.

Is your network switch / router gear broken?

Yeah, no network, even though I have network status lights blinking and the controller board LEDs are all green.

Got an alert from my S9 that it was down and when I went to check on it, discovered that all 3 of my miners seem dead. Power is up/good:

l3+ powers on, no status lights on the hasboards, 2 red leds near one of the hashboard connectors
s9 powers on, no status lights on the hashboards.  leds on the controller are all green.  One hashboard briefly flickers red but then nothing.
doge mini powers on but red status light on the front (Alas, I was going to unplug is yesterday to sell it, but didn't get around to it)

No web response for any of them.

I'm pretty sure I'm well and truly f*cked.  Even at used prices, none of them have even paid for themselves yet Sad

Any advice on what to do next?  I'm pretty sure it must have been a power surge, everything is plugged into a bare PDU.

shut them all off.

wait 1 hour


only turn back the s9 in 1 hour.

do it with just the controller connected ie unplug the 9 power jacks to the 3 hashboards.

let us know if you can find the controller on your internet/router

7  Bitcoin / Mining support / Antminer S9 hashboard rattling on: November 06, 2021, 02:30:15 AM
Hi All,

I'm pretty new to mining.  I have an Antminer S9 that is driving me nuts.  One of the hashboards is rattling like crazy inside the case.  I've confirmed that it's not a heatsink or the fans (I actually installed new fans as the old fans were tired). When I hold the sockets of the middle board, the rattle stops. The fans don't bother me nearly as much as the rattle.  Has anyone tried putting anything on the edge of the hashboards like a plastic strip to keep the boards from rattling around in the case?  I'm assuming that there isn't much heat transfer from the edge of the boards to the case, but I don't want to do anything that might hold heat on the boards.
