Make sure you set the difficulty to 1024 at the pool side as well. For some reasons all the 1 th/s units I have tried either from here or Bitmain and cointerra I have to do the same thing. Then they connect and work ok. It can also take up to 1/2hr to show the full speed at the pool. BTCGuild has been a great pool for these. I set the worked difficulty to 1024 and away it goes with no issues. the tracking number (actually shipper's reference number) they gave me is now showing tracking information. my concern (other than this being shipped 7 days later than it was supposed to) is that while the tracking lists 3 packages (for the 3 items i ordered) it only shows 2 packages being picked up. but at least it shows my stuff is on the way finally!
*EDIT - DHL now lists 3 packages on the tracking. I think I can expect to see all 3 units by the end of the week.
DHL now lists 3 packages on the tracking. I think I can expect to see all 3 units by the end of the week. 3 units arrived this morning. still tweaking them to get them running at 100%. 2 of the units were only showing 2 out of the 4 modules. i'm working with them to find out why. got all 3 units recognizing the 4 modules. now just have a pool problem. dont know if ghash.io is no good or what, but it wouldnt report my full speed. when i switched to btcguild it reports the correct speed. i'll try to tweak them when i return to my office monday. until then they seem to be hashing between 900 and 950. |

Yes I have not updated the new firmware yet. I have been keeping up with Ben about it. I am going to try it in a few days though and give him some feedback. Your update saved me having to compile it in. I appreciate it greatly. I am not good at that stuff anymore. Thanks for the OSM update. I am going to dl and get using it now.  Be aware the OSM update is for firmware which is only for testing for now, so if you're using the stable firmware release by OneString it will still come up as MXF but work the same in every other way; it's just the cosmetic change of missing the name OSM. |

That could be fun if it does not add too much complexity to the coin making it cumbersome.
Do you think it can be implemented in such a way?

Your router needs to be 192.168.1.1 for it to work. Got my miner yesterday (5/1).
- The miner was shipped 10 days late.
- The miner was used. (Fans are super dusty)
- Still can't connect to it.. I have setup my router to 192.168.0.1 and I was told that the IP is 192.168.0.118. I have used Angry IP to sweep 192.168.0.x and still haven't found it..
I am super angry right now.
Paid $2350 for it and this is what I got. Definitely not worth it, Better buy from bitmaintech

I know DHL kicked the crap out of my box. I made sure that all the cables were seated properly. Some people have had some of the data cables come lose due to rough handling during shipping. the tracking number (actually shipper's reference number) they gave me is now showing tracking information. my concern (other than this being shipped 7 days later than it was supposed to) is that while the tracking lists 3 packages (for the 3 items i ordered) it only shows 2 packages being picked up. but at least it shows my stuff is on the way finally!

Thanks for the OSM update. I am going to dl and get using it now. New release - version 4.3.2, 2nd May 2014
Human readable changelog:
- There's a workaround in this version to minimise the risk of the man-in-the-middle attack of redirecting you to a different pool you don't want to be hashing on. Stratum reconnect will only honour the request if the reconnect is to a server with the same domain name.
- Fix for some overflow errors on stats with massive hashrates/shares.
- Fix a major memory leak which mostly affected hashfast users.
- Fix for a failed connection after a redirection that would then never return.
- Devices with unique serial numbers of 4 or more characters will now be displayed by their serial number in the status bar.
- Support for new firmware for OneStringMiners that will identify themselves as OSM devices.
- Support for OSM debugging and LED modes.
- A1 driver updates.
Full changelog:
- Make reconnection messages more explanatory
- Fix accounting bug with nrolltime drivers
- upgrade some int to int64_t to avoid overflows in reporting
- Stratum client.reconnect require matching URL
- Fix memory leak in submit_noffset_nonce
- Clean up any work that may not have been used in the work scheduler
- Avoid unnecessary deref now that it's done within discard_work
- Clean work pointers after one way usage functions
- Avoid unnecessary total_work_inc in generating local work
- Cosmetic fixes
- Fix idle bug, when redirected client can't auth
- Rename spond temp rate to asics total rate
- Build fixes
- Set the unique id only for usb devices with serial strings longer than 4 chars
long
- Use usb serial strings as unique id if devices have them
- Discretely identify the onestring miners as OSM
- Add bxf debugging option and osm led modes
- A1: modularize board selector / add initial CCR support
- A1: cleanup tca9535 logging
- A1: fix and extend PLL parameters
- A1: clean up compile warnings
- A1: use real level in hexdump
- Add identification for onestring miner variants
- Avalon2: Parser the power good signal
- driver-avalon2: this functions used on detect, which don't have thr setup yet

I have been researching pool centralization and manipulation, one of the things I found is that discus fish and ghash set their accepted block size very low. Discus fish obscenely low. This allows them to plow through more of the smaller blocks faster than pools that play fair. I have more but I have to finish verification first before I say anything more. DPoS, I appreciate that you are genuinely concerned about this, but variance happens.
If you have any evidence beyond the de facto luck of the pool, I'd personally be delighted to see it, but claiming to be the only guy who can see the conspiracy while the math nerds politely nod and smile...
I say this without malice, but it reminds me of the scores of (to a person, bad) poker players I've met over the years who talk about how dealers screw them, how winners are just lucky, how they usually win when they sit in their lucky seat, how they never win with pocket aces, and a gillion other things that all come down to the reality that variance happens.
They don't understand it, and so the game must be rigged.
nope - I've mined with BTCGuild 2nd half of last year and right into this situation. I totally know the types you are talking about.. I am talking about a step down in the overall dynamic. I said a few times I don't run pools and can't be an expert. But I can notice when a game balance has changed from a mile away so I put that out there right when it started to happen.. It continues and will continue until taken seriously I'll put it another way.. do you think those folks that raped wall street with High Frequency Trading haven't cast their eyes on mining pools to look for any way shape or form to get and edge? Call me chicken little and I am not attacking BTCGuild, it is just this is the place I mined for so long so this where my gut threw the red flag that something was amiss.. perhaps Ghash or Discus Fish or KNC figured something out |

I am looking forward to it. It is almost time is the link up? What will the chat room be on? ie. will it need any software installing or account creation? I've a dentist appointment near then so will probably miss it but would like to be ready in case I can get back on time. Big thumbs up btw I plan on using https://chatver.com which was created by bitcointalk user mart. That seemed like the easiest method to host a temporary chat room. I'll post the actual room link in ~2 hours. |

Your welcome Nate. I hope it gets enough attention that the devs will actually act on it. They really are shutting out a huge portion of the mining community that does not want to run several mining software programs just to mine different coins. I posted this in the Vertcoin thread. I think everyone should go over and add their support for getting the devs to add the code to BFGMiner and by extension MultiMiner. Thanks for your support. I have a question and hopefully a developer can answer it for me.
Can you guys please, please get in touch with Nate of MultiMiner and or Luke Jr. of BFGMiner and contribute the code so we can get scrypt N support in them?
Nate Woolls and Luke Jr have stated over and over any coins or algorithms can be added but they need the devs to contribute the code. They would be happy to support it and do it quickly.
They serve a huge group of the crypto mining community. MultiMiner is a great GUI program that beats any I have used for any backend.
It is new user friendly and has the same ability for tweaks and tinkering that cgminer and BFGMiner have.
I am asking on behalf of the crypto community and myself.
Thanks for your consideration. Thread Link: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=404364.new#newThank you very much for this. |

Yes quite a bit. He was adamant that it was big boost. He really sees how it is evolving and forcing the other money exchanges like banks and paypal to change or die off. I really liked listening to him and learning from him. There is more that I am going to publish later on as well. I was blown away how nice a person he was too. He was so personable unlike to some other CEO's I have worked with in the past. Did you see a spike in sales when you announced Bitcoin was accepted at eGifter?
Yes, it was a surprising spike. We are a private company and don’t talk about numbers, but it was a substantial spike that continues to grow.
So, accepting bitcoin does help companies getting more business.  |

HI Everyone, I got to interview Tyler Roye the CEO of eGifter.com. It was really informative as he has strong views of how the credit card companies and banks are screwing over everyone from the retailers to the consumer. He spoke to me about how Bitcoin and crypto currencies is going to change how those institutions do business. I wanted to share because he is such a advocate for Bitcoin and crypto currencies. He supports the community and thinks so much of it and it's ability to innovate and come together. Thanks for checking it out. http://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/news/interview-egifters-tyler-roye/2014/05/012.5% of everything that gets transacted goes to banks and card processors. They do not feel enough competitive pressure to lower the price or add features. I have a feature I would like to see them add. Taking on the fraud from card not present retailers. Why is that my problem? Why can’t they give me a technology to do that? The answer is they are not motivated to do this by competitive price pressures.
I want them to define new technologies that are going to create a system that would promote less fraud. They are fat and happy and do not want to. They are going to have to respond to the emerging crypto currencies and they are going to respond by: 1st lower prices but they can only lower them so far before they say 2nd they are going to add some features, better add some benefit We are entering a time when hackers are going to focus on only digital transactions. Great I sell stored value, I sell digitally stored value. I just became even more of a target for hackers. I am ok with that as it is part of our IP stack, and it forces us to build a better mouse trap. That is one of our competitive differentiators. I would give my business to someone who could stop all that. |

I would like to join as well.
I have not seen when the wallet password gets released and I would like to preconfigure my miner for it.
Has this info been released yet and it is something we can do?

Especially with all the new capability of MobileMiner adding the Scrypt N so we can mine vertcoin and use MM it would be awesome. I have a question and hopefully a developer can answer it for me.

Good idea! I've used mobile miner quite a bit, have a paid subscription and all. |

Thanks for the update. That is a bummer on the serial connection for the boards. Do you think I should try it out on my boards and give you the results? I can do that if that would help? I have 5 boards to string together. Hopefully you can figure out BFG support I will keep being patient. Thanks again. Has there been any progress on the new Firmware so they can work with BFGMiner?
Luke has said that is all that is left to be done.
I know Ben you have been working hard on that and the serial interface tweaks so it will run well from a single USB cable.
After lengthy testing we now know that not all boards will run OK over the serial connection. There is a hardware issue that is causing communication errors on some boards when the serial connection is used. This is not an issue when the boards are used over USB. And if a stack runs OK with the serial connection, the total hashrate will most likely not be higher than an USB connected stack. I did manage to get up to 500GH/s for a 16 board tower, but only after replacing suboptimal boards. That same stack went up to 507GH/s when connected over USB, but that might have been a matter of luck. I am currently testing a stack that consists of boards that have been modified by hand. Regarding Bfgminer, Luke is waiting on me for a version of the firmware that includes the number of chips in the answer that the board gives on the version question send by Bfgminer. I am not sure why, but it seems that the boards are not answering, or I am doing something wrong. I am still investigating. |

Your welcome. We have been pestering them quite a bit and the more people that do it the faster we can get it in MM. I am going to go over to their thread now and ask as well. No there is not. Please ask the Vertcoin dev's to add the code to BFGMiner so it can work with MultiMiner. Nate and Luke has said over and over again they will add it if the devs contribute the code. Please pressure them to do so. Is there anybody who mine Scrypt-N (Vertcoin) with Multiminer ?
I really would like to do that  Thank you for reply. I will do |
