Antminer S1 Dual Blade

[Buzzthekid]

I have a bitcoin miner that used to run by itself, it had no problems until a lighting strike took out my router. After replacing that it would connect for a few minutes then drop connection.
It powers on just fine, but whenever i try to access its Web GUI, it comes back empty handed. I have attempted to reset it multiple times, but to no avail, any ideas?

I think it's probably time to move away from the S1...
Maybe it's an omen to send you a message, for instance, "The S1 is oooold as your grandmother's tits"
The S1 may have been affected by the strike, take a look inside to see if there is any electrical damage and make sure both hashboards are active when plugged in. Also check your cables and make sure that they push current through as they should. So many things could be wrong after a lightning strike, so take everything into account and do a check of your equipment.

Any smell of burnt? Check connections on the circuit see if anything or any chips are darkened, swap parts with a working S1 to find out whats wrong. If you can't i'd recommend selling it for parts.

No smell of burnt parts, i have successfully ran other miners on these cables, the only thing I can't test is to see if the LAN Port is working, its lights still illuminate but i get no response from it. Checked the chips, no sign of swelling. I disconnected certain cables and the miners fan ramped up, but after reconnection they would return to idle speed. I'm wondering, would a WiFi antenna work?

I would put more time observing the controller than the boards. If a boards or both boards dies, you still get "access to the miner", you will just not have any hashrate.

Wifi do work, however you need to set it up on the miner prior, since open wrt cannot automagically connect to your router's wifi.
