1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Sources to buy RX 470? Suggestion for other Eth GPUs? on: June 09, 2017, 12:09:10 AM
I am not finding any anywhere for their actual price ~$200, only finding ones for double and triple, presumably from the spike in Eth prices.
I have one 6x RX 470 GPU rig for Eth mining and want to build another.
I see a lot of Nvidia GPUs available but I'm not sure which ones (if any) have a working driver that allows 6 GPUs to run together like my AMD setup?

So, poloniex is down? Or they are going to be scam?
Its up right now. Maybe it just went down for few minutes while you were checking, you should wait for some time before accusing them of scam.
are you serious? They are going down continuously everyday... check there: http://poloniex.com/trollbox ; People are leaving polo...

this.
i'm considering switching to bittrex or kraken, does anyone know if the issues polo has faced in the past 1-2 weeks are also being experienced by these two exchanges?

Hi all - I've setup an a741 and T9, do i just put my wallet address from coinbase right into the UI for each miner? how long does it take for me to verify the wallet and miners are connected?
i just pasted in the wallet address where it says worker: in the miner UI
thanks
5  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: PSU 8pin to 6pin/6+2pin cable? on: May 04, 2017, 06:17:03 PM
it's about 24-26 inches from PSU (8pin) to 6+2 pin, then from 6+2 pin to 6 pin it's about another 8-10 inches

edit: i'll take 2 instead of 1 if you can make em sidehack Smiley
6  Bitcoin / Hardware / PSU 8pin to 6pin/6+2pin cable? on: May 04, 2017, 06:56:19 AM
I have an EVGA 1600w G2 PSU. I need one more of the cable in the bottom right of this picture: https://www.evga.com/products/images/gallery/100-CK-1600-B9_LG_1.jpg

It is 8 pin at the PSU end, then 6+2 pin, and also 6 pin.

EVGA calls this a "6+2pin + 6pin PCI-E VGA Cable" https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=100-CK-1600-B9

I don't want to order a kit of 4 cables from EVGA and not need 3 of them.. I dont see it offered by cablemod either..

edit: feel free to move this to altcoin mining subforum.. sorry..

fixed it!

i went to etc/config/network and found a commented line of code saying delete the below line to enable wifi
did that and then rebooted the pi, found openwrt as an open network, joined it, changed my ipv4 settings to be on it (192.168.0.101) and then was finally able to hit the 192.168.0.100 in browser!
thanks everyone!!!

i've reimaged it already as you said.
i had my laptop connected on wifi and an ethernet cable plugged directly into the pi
then i had the ipv4 network connection settings of the laptop forcing the static ip of the laptop to be 192.168.0.101
even after doing this i could not ping or browse the IP of the raspberry from the laptop..
i made this post on openwrt forum.. https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=70801

A) Good site for cords adapters whatever http://www.stayonline.com/
B) Specifically starting with data center cords http://www.stayonline.com/iec320-power-cords.aspx
C) Cords for PDU to a PSU like the APW  http://www.stayonline.com/iec-c13-to-c14-15-amp.aspx

great, thanks again NFW

thanks, that's a good idea
a little confused by "ignoring the neutral" what exactly does this mean when telling someone to change the plug?

edit: also - wouldn't i still need a PSU cable from the apw3 to the PDU?? this solves the receptacle issue but not the PSU cable issue

What exactly is your question then? If the cable supplied with the PSU doesnt plug into what you have there are thousands of adapters out there.

the apw3 doesn't come with a cable..

13  Bitcoin / Mining support / APW3 power cable in the US, where to buy?? on: May 02, 2017, 06:29:38 PM
i have a 240v 30a circuit that isn't being used, but is wired for a dryer. I have an electrician coming to convert it so i can power an a741/apw3 and t9/apw3, 2 apw3 total.
what power cable do you guys use for this PSU?
what would be the simplest outlet/approach to instruct the electrician for conversion?
14  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Unofficial Avalon 721 thread setup review etc. photos on: May 02, 2017, 06:22:57 PM
i edited the 'network' config file but it made no difference. i'm still stumped here.

these are the original values of the network config file.. not sure what all needs changing.. https://ibb.co/fHUEbQ

i went through this: https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/raspberry_pi_foundation/raspberry_pi#how_to_connect_via_ethernet

it seemed to be relevant but still did not help.. my config file looks different and the changes outlined don't seem to directly apply..
i set the proto as dhcp from static as it said, and also made the IP 192.168.1.199 - it is making no difference, the device is still seen as offline by everything else on the network. i even manually added the MAC ID and IP to the DHCP of the router @ 192.168.1.1 and it identified the MAC ID as a Raspberry Pi but STILL NO connectivity! WTF

these are my router DHCP settings: https://ibb.co/hq5Fi5

edit: is there a command i can issue in openwrt to force the br-lan to be on? i'm still not sure if it's even on, i tried 'ifconfig eth0 up' and 'ifconfig br-lan up'..
15  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Unofficial Avalon 721 thread setup review etc. photos on: May 02, 2017, 05:53:39 AM
i'm not too clear on DHCP settings for my router.. RT-AC87U, the guides i've found don't seem to equate..
what am i to match the broadcast IP value to? can you elaborate what the values should be updated to?
16  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Unofficial Avalon 721 thread setup review etc. photos on: May 02, 2017, 04:43:16 AM
oh i see, yes it is green at first then a blue light also comes on.
i tried reflashing the card already with the same link you provided, the rp3 image, made no difference.
it's plugged into an ipad charger - it says on it that the output is 5.2v 2.4a 12w
i know this is a no-wifi pi but i tried plugging in a wifi adapter and the small led light on the wifi adapter didn't light up, even though a keyboard in the same USB slot gets power.

i noticed when the pi is initializing, before it prompts me to push enter, it says:

Code:
eth0: hardware isnt capable of remote wakening
device eth0 entered promiscuous mode
IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): br-lan: link is not ready

i tried moving around directories but quickly got lost in openwrt land.. i was hoping this was more straightforward..

edit: i removed the micro sd card and tried booting it, nothing happened, so i powered it off and put the card back in, now everytime i boot the pi and do arp -a, nothing shows at all, doing ifconfig shows the IP to have changed from 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.1.1! WTF!
17  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Unofficial Avalon 721 thread setup review etc. photos on: May 02, 2017, 03:03:57 AM
no green light is showing anywhere on the pi.. i can barely see an orange/red light through the creases of the metal casing of the avaloncontroller cover. however, i'm sure it's turning on since i can plug in a monitor and see it running? i'm using an ipad charger adapter, it should fit the specs, 2.5a 5v 12w etc..
i'll have to open a ticket with canaan..
i may just buy a regular pi from microcenter tomorrow and use the flash card from canaan, i feel like the ethernet port light shouldn't take this much...

unless all of this could be solved with enabling DHCP to force a new IP to the Pi? although i'm not sure how doing so would resolve a port which appears to be getting no power..

edit: seems like a corrupt flash memory could prevent the Pi ethernet port from initializing properly? anyone?
18  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Unofficial Avalon 721 thread setup review etc. photos on: May 02, 2017, 02:36:18 AM
i tried running a switch but it did not make a difference.. i tried running it (with PC and controller) from the modem and router both, neither worked/recognized the pi in arp-a or ping, nothing seems to be powering up the led light on the ethernet port of the pi.. i even removed the router completely and plugged just my PC and the controller into the modem ports 1 and 2, the pi still isn't found..
feeling so lost.. any suggestions please..
19  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Unofficial Avalon 721 thread setup review etc. photos on: May 02, 2017, 12:55:27 AM
yes my machine is 192.168.0.5, i tried changing it .0.101 through network settings->ipv4 settings, same as this guide:

https://canaan.io/downloads/people/lili/doc/avalon6/AvalonMiner-6-Raspberry-Pi-Configuration-Guide-with-english.pdf

Sad

edit: more details, my modem is 192.168.0.1 and my router is 192.168.1.1 is this interfering somehow? i'm not too familiar with changing DHCP settings if that is the next step..

Hi - I'm having some issues setting up the avaloncontroller with my a741. I connected the power and ethernet, but the ethernet lights are not coming on on the controller ethernet port.. I also am not finding it's IP when I arp -a from another machine which is also hardwired.. I connected a video cable and checked ifconfig on the pi, it confirms the ethernet address to be 192.168.0.100 as stated by avalon.. I tried pinging 192.168.0.100 from another machine but also failed..
Do I need to reflash the SD card? I was hoping it'd come ready to go.. Is it possible my ethernet port is fked on the Pi? Please help..
