Blade miner trouble.

[EfterlysT]

Yesterday i got a delivery of old version blade miners.

My internet connection is wireless mobile 3G/4G connection recieved on a D-Link DWR-923.
The Router has four LAN connections and i have tried them all with no luck.
I have turned off the built in firewall and also tried to add portforwarding for 192.168.1.254 and port 8000.

I cant reach the blades interface (192.168.1.254:8000) at all !
I just get a white screeen telling me that the browswe could not connect to the adress.

I cant find any other that having troble with setting theese miners up. Atleast everyone seems to be able to connect to it.
Is my wireless connection the problem ?

When connecting a blade unit to the router it light up orange on the connectors leds, all other connectors is green.
If i connect the network cable from the blade to any other computer it instantly connects to internet. If i put it back into the blade zero luck.

I am stuck at the moment and i suck at network stuff :/

Anyone got some tips ?

Can you verify that the ip the router has assigned the blade is correct? You should be able to view connected devices in the router menu.

If that looks ok, can you open a cmd prompt and type ping [blade internal ip address] and check to see if packets are being rejected.

As a final solution your router may have a "DMZ" demilitarized zone, This is a final option as it completely removes any protection (firewall ect) from this internal up.

I hope this helps a little dude.

Also if you use an android phone download an app called "fing" it can show you a list of all devices connected to the same network as you are on, Great debugging tool for networks.

I cant find the blade if i look in the LAN section. When i update the list i only find my other two stationary computers connected to the router.
I have tried two different blades now with same problem.

I cant find any dmz option in my router. But i have  a firewall section and i have shut it down completely. It should accept any connections right now.

I am not sure how else to help dude. Sorry.

It's cause your blade is on a different subnet.

You can either do 2 things.
1. Change your routers subnet to match that of the blade. (Easiest if all other network computers are DHCP (non static ip))
2. Temporary change your subnet to match the blade, go to configuration and change it's IP to the old subnet. Then change the router back to the old subnet. (Safest/More Complicated).

The problem is your network is most likely 192.168.0.XXX the blade is on 192.168.1.254. You see how it's 0.XXX instead of 1.XXX?

Log into your router (I take it you know how to do this)

If i remember correctly for D-Link routers you need to click "setup" on the top tabs and then on the left side click "network settings" tab on the left.

In the new window you will see Router IP Address

It will look something like this 192.168.0.1
Change this number  to 192.168.1.1

Next go down to IP range and make sure the maxium (right box) ends with .254 example 192.168.1.254

Now reboot the router and you should be able to access the blade's configuration page. Now from there you can change the IP to the old subnet and then reverse the steps you just did or leave it as be if everything on the network just gets a new IP from DHCP.

Hope this helps you!

If you don't want to change any router settings, you could find a small hub or switch (one that's not built into a router), plug the blade into it, and plug a PC's ethernet port into it. On the PC, change its IP address to a static address of 192.168.1.1,
netmask 255.255.255.0. The DNS setting won't matter.

Then, fire up your PC web browser, and point it to http://192.168.1.254:8000. You can then use the web interface to change your blade's IP address to match your router's LAN addresses.

If you have a crossover ethernet cable, you might be able to connect a PC's ethernet port directly to the blade, without using a hub or switch.

You could also change the subnet on your PC temporarily until you configure the blade.

a subnet of 255.255.255.0 will put you on a network of 192.168.0.x

a subnet of 255.255.0.0 will make your "local" network 192.168.x.x

The correct url is http://192.168.1.254:8000/main

This made everything easier. My router had 192.168.0.1 and i just switched it to 192.168.1.1 and everything started to work.

Thank you !
