I have updated to the new firmware of KNC miner. Just to let you know. The hash rate is now slower after update, so beware.

Are you 100% sure its the new firmware that is slowing your miner down?

Also, what is the actual hash rate change amount?

Actually, I discovered if I change the miner to bfgminer in KNCminer, it is much slower than cgminer.

Yes, it is the latest firmware.

I tried to restore to the older version firmware, but it will not let me.  Cry

I have lost 10 GH/s in my Jupiter after upgrade to the latest firmware using cgminer.

If I am using bfgminer, I am only mining 350 - 500 GH/s.  Cry

I have change the pool, and cgminer is now running 688GH/s, yes when selecting bfgminer, it seems to be very slow.

OK, thanks for explaining the situation. If there is a bug in the new firmware, hopefully KNC will patch it soon. Sucks you can't go back to old firmware !

I know, there is a restore firmware button. But after uploading the older firmware, there is an error.

But at long as you stick with cgminer, you can still get 670 GH/s.

99.1 and 99.2 are supposed to be tuned in order to see an increase in hashrate.  Use this to tune your miner to get a nice boost in hashrate:

I have seen that before. But my config file doesn't look like the one in that post. So no joy for me.

Also there was a rumour they are going to have a firmware which makes the miner hash faster, so I am going to wait.
