I just updated the Mini 3 to the newest fw (from June 2025) and it has some improvements,
including a web browser GUI!
Canaan, you should maybe more promote the FW updates for these Home series gear.
which FW is it? 25011701_3f53b19 i still need to login via qr code via mobile Wow you bomb me both here and via pm...  I'll just paste what I said in pm..... Hi! https://www.canaan.io/support/file_downloadFirmware Avalon Mini3 Release 2025061801 It does, since it has the web browser GUI. But functions there are limited and sadly it doesnt have all same things than the android app. The android app also works with this new fw, so I recommend you to try the update |

For the model name, do you guys know where the "XP" comes from..? I'm curious. I wonder if it is maybe "extra picked" or something -- in another words a model for which the best extra good quality chips have been picked for. Or maybe it is "extra performance"... Perhaps, extra pricey?!  That's a good one, thanks. |

The Avalon Mini 3 is what I have currently as a home miner, and so far it is running quite ok (knock the wood).
Small down sides are annoying "rattle noise" from the heat output protection steel net in "Mining"-mode and the lack web GUI (you can only meddle it with the android phone app "Avalon Family").
I hope the hardware lasts a little better than in Antminer R4 I had in the past. They had few hashboards going broken.
I think Avalon has it best currently in 1kW ish range.
For other home miner sizes GekkoScience are known to be good and handy.

Hello everyone, I set up a proxy and my ping is 70. I want to see if there are any special settings I can make for the WhatsMiner device to get better results?  It's all about your network setup and why would you add such proxy in your setup? Of course it brings more to latency. In Whatsminer settings there ain't things you can do to make latency better. |

What the guys said earlier, and also you can find lots of useful documentation at Zeusbtc website https://www.zeusbtc.com |

@pigfarmer
Do you see the Mini 3 in your local area network if you look at your router's web user interface?

^ Wow, that is really unfortunate. I wish the best for him recovering from the fire. Reading this and other stories in the past, I feel very fortunate that during the most active part of my mining "career", I only had one serious close-call incident. The psu which I got originally with BW-L21 miner was a bad quality one with shitty dc side wiring, and I woke up in the middle of the night to my smoke detector alarm when the wiring failed. |

And remember the basic rule. If something seems too good to be true, then it probably is not true.

You are asking about altcoins, since with PC it makes no sense to mine btc. Btc mining nowadays is only carried out with ASICs.

I grabbed one of these (the Mini 3)! It was from a distributor which was listed at Canaan.io (Mineshop). I see this one as a very interesting continuation in 800-1000 W power area home miner. Previous very common one in these was Antminer R4, and a lot of time has passed after that. I plan to use my one for a solo 'lottery' mining. I may even do a write-up for this, which I haven't done in a long time.  |

Please take things like this with a grain of salt, and very carefully.
Based on what I've seen here, doesn't give me reliable feeling yet.
