1  Bitcoin / Project Development / [Proxy] Looking for a developer who can set up a proxy for me on: May 18, 2014, 06:52:50 PM
I’m looking for somebody that can help me set-up a stratum proxy. I have several miners running, I want to run an Amazon Proxy to control the pool all miners are on.

So far, I tried to install Slush on Amazon put can’t get it running quite right. Most likely a firewall issue.

If you can do this, send me a message with your price.

I didn't receive a controller or RPI with my order? Can I connect it to an existing ASIC set / controller so it runs 20 miners?
Why don't I have a controller / RPI??

Okay, want to keep you updated on my order here.
Contact, talked, placed and paid an order for the LA3M system in 9th of March.
He promised me that I would have the device before the 22th of March (thats the date I needed it, since I flew back home to install this unit)

Timeline here:
  • Shipment was promised on the 15th of march
  • 15 March: Shipment delay, will be shipped in 2 days
  • 19 March: Shipment delay, will be shipped tonight
  • 20 March: Shipment delay, warehouse is not open
  • 24 March: Shipment delay, will be shipped tonight
  • 25 March: Shipment delay, will be shipped tonight
  • 26 March: Shipment delay, will be shipped tonight
  • 28 March: Shipment delay, will be shipped tonight
  • 31 March: Received tracking code - 150$ refund in 24 hours

Hopefully I have my package in a couple of days.

Up until today no shipment! I'm really worried here, I'll keep you updated.
In the end I flew home for nothing....

4  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [GUIDE] GridSeed Miner Support/Tuning on: March 24, 2014, 01:13:42 PM
I have some problems connecting these to a Windows PC, I tried to follow the guides provided. The problem is, when I connect the HUB all devices show up in the device manager. I can't install the Zagig driver of the HUB (because 10 devices show up - see screenshot) and therefore I can't start CGminer. CPUminer works if I specify a specific COM port for a single unit. My preference strongly goes to get this working on CGminer since I want to over clock and monitor via the API.

Any suggestions??


Sorry for the shitty screenshot

Just got my la3m setup, I have the controller with the v2 firmware.  Will post results.

Patiently waiting for some news or a .bin.   Smiley

Again, why isnt jack communicating to the community? - Its beyond me
How did you get the new firmware for your LA3M?

Anybody else seeing no payments in the last days? My balance shows that they have been paid out but I don't see them anywhere...

As an owner of the 3MH/10-miner set I would agree with your assessment 100%.  I will not be buying anymore of these devices until the new firmware is released and it has been clearly and factually demonstrated as being stable and usable.  At the prices these are currently selling for we should not be getting "beta" hardware/software.  To make matters worse the firmware is all closed-source, so all the really smart guys on this forum can't even help out to fix these problems.  This is perhaps the most disappointing because the community is READY and BEGGING to help out and improve the software, but can't because of closed-source.  This is a real shame in my opinion...

Most of it is open-source; you can check out what gridseed posted at http://github.com/gridseed. I'm pretty sure LightningASIC is just running cpuminer and has built a simple web frontend around it.

But the thing is we can't access the controller or modify anything. Only they know how to access it, I read some things about SSH or FTP. But I found nothing on anybody actually succeeding to modify the LA3M unit. I think the source code is only suitable if you use the USB miners. Please correct me if I'm wrong, I would love to improve this stuff. The hardware seems good, but the software makes it bad.

Did anyone manage to buy from LightningASIC directly? Seems to be way cheaper.

I did. Paid on Feb 12, and received Feb 20.


How much was it?

    Here are my ASIC findings:
    • LA3M miner ordered and paid with BTC on 18 of February. Quick replies from Jack on sales related questions, but poor English. Had no experience with support related questions
    • Miner shipped on 24 of February and delivered on 27 February, have to pay 125USD import tax on the package
    • Sturdy and solid packaging, unlikely to get damaged in shipping. Hardware feels of decent quality.
    • Some power cables are US some are EU, therefore you need some adapters. In total you need 4 sockets and an ethernet cable.
    • Easy assembly, takes an hour to get up and running
    • You can access the controller via it’s ip-address on your network. I used Angry IP scanner to find it (Mac).
    • Software offers you insight in actual hashing speed and setting a pool for both BTC and Scrypt. Make sure you set a BTC pool even if you don’t use it otherwise the software will not start.
    • Software is buggy but gets the job done. Offers basic over clock features for scrypt mining.
    • With basic over clocking 10 units (which is 1 miner) gives you around 3.5MH/s
    • Unit takes around 5 to 10 minutes to boot up before it starts mining
    • Heat and noise is low compared to GPU mining

    Concerns
    • No failover pool can be added, therefore you can only add one pool add a time. This makes it impossible to lease your rig. You have no settings you can tweak except the pool and mining speed.
    • The hardware offers the option to mine both BTC and Scrypt at the same time. However, when mining both the speed of scrypt decreases by 50% and becomes unstable. Therefore you only use this product to mine Scrypt.
    • The 10 units give different speeds all the time, in general each unit creates 300-400kh (without BTC enabled). Some give you double digit speeds, some triple digit speeds. They do not give you the same speed all the time.
    • When mining on coin-switching pools such as Middlecoin or Wafflepool the hash rate drops to 2Mh/s. When mining a single coin, for instance LTC, it goes back up to 4Mh/s

    Verdict
    In general the product is good as advertised, it get the job done, however at this point I will not invest more. The product is too immature, and the firmware/software is too buggy and lacks features. A lot of problems can be solved by better software but since this is not available of accessible for us we have to wait for this. Only the supplier can update these devices. According to screenshots this new software is already created but not available for us buyers. At this point in time we don’t have any timeframe when the new software will be available, but this would definitely improve the products value.[/list]

    Ordered them, paid with BTC, got them 13 days later, work like a charm.
    Getting around 300Kh on Scrypt.

    Any ideas on how to over clock?

    17  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Compare pools: MiddleCoin/CleverMining/HashCows/WafflePool/Hashbros on: February 26, 2014, 03:36:28 PM
    The results are in! The winner is CleverMining!

    CleverMining0,0429
    WafflePool0,0423
    Hashcows0,0327
    Hashbros0,0306
    CoinSolver0,0262
    MiddleCoin Amsterdam0,0223

    It was a close call between CleverMining and WafflePool, they gave me practically the same results. However, CleverMining has a high reject rate (10-30%), with closer servers coming in the future I expect higher payouts. MiddleCoin admitted they had problems with stats and founding blocks, so their result may not be representative over the long term, as said earlier they gave me the highest payout before. Unfortunately, Hashbros announced they will shut down soon - so they don't really count anymore. And for some reason I can't find my results for the MiddleCoin EU mining.

    tl;dr: Mine on CleverMining or Wafflepool

    Hi people, I was on holiday for a week, gonna put the results together soon!

    Ok, the experiment is over! I stopped all miners. I'll post preliminary results soon. For the definitive results I'll wait 48 hours to let everything be exchanged. Also MiddleCoin announced that statistics were off. Hopefully they compensate for their poor statistics in these hours.

    What rejection rate are you getting with CleverMining?

    An awefull lot 18.6% ....
