1  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Announcement: Bitmain launches AntMiner solution, 0.68 J/GH on chip on: August 17, 2014, 06:11:44 PM
Anminer s3 bricked after firmware upgrade.....

a firmware upgrade was performed on my s3 and now it seems to be bricked.  no way to login to it in current state.  not really sure what protocol seems to be at this point Huh  i have contacted Bitmain several times (on bitcointalk, the bitmain site, and via RMA email) about this issue with no response. 

aside from using it as a paperweight, anyone have suggestions on how to fix or get it going once again...is this s3 bricked state even fixable ? 

thanks in advance for all input and help. 

Chances are very less to brick. Did you switch the power supply off while the upgrade was happening?
The possibility is that your miner ip reset back to the default 192.168.1.99.
And try with that ip address If that's not working you may possibly have an ip conflict.
Do a factory reset via the small button in front of your S3.

I tried the factory reset on one machine, yet I can't seem to login. I just get the LuCI black screen. Also, there is a yellow and green light above ethernet port. Any ideas?

This is an ass backwards guide for IP settings on your antminers. Don't follow OP's instructions. Do it the same way as the S1.

Makes sense why I was so confused.

I have a custom gateway so originally I had to plug the S3 into my laptop, configure the LAN to look at 192.168.1.X (anything besides 99 as AntMiner is on that)
Log into the GUI via 192.168.1.99
Turn the WAN to DHCP so it automatically found the correct IP when I plugged it directly into the switch
Found the IP it was using and was able to log into the GUI and change miner settings
Worked like a charm, really really simple and easy if you know what you are doing hah

I even found a use for some of my old PSUs that were powering some MrTeal Chilis (Sadly put into retirement/sold)



Can you set up multiple S3s this way? I have two.
