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
