Thanks Xiangfu for posting this. Assuming I get to make use of this resource you have taken the time to set up (pending delivery from BitSyncom)-- may I have an address to send BTC donation to? Thanks for your efforts.

I think here was the same: after been away for xx hours I see now Elapsed x hours in Cgminer Status... but I am happy that it seemingly restarts

How can I tell what firmware version I'm running?

Looks like you may be running the same version but you quoted the (20130225 - Feb 25th?) at the end of the file name compared to: This link is always link to latest firmware: http://downloads.qi-hardware.com/people/xiangfu/avalon/openwrt-ar71xx-generic-tl-wr703n-v1-squashfs-factory.binAre these the exact same? Thanks Jeff, D

Pastebin of cgminer API log, at the time of the stopped-mining incident: http://pastebin.com/uiBvaJkHAnother thing to consider ... there are a few locks inside cgminer to of course handle threaded access to certain data. Maybe something is deadlocking in the Avalon version? Just a suggested path to look into ... if it isn't a hardware problem.

I know the field is currently limited, but has anyone else tried to do some stupid shit like me and attempted to get a custom version of cgminer running on the avalon? I compiled a new version of cgminer without avalon support but with bitforce support (since the avalon version of cgminer is incompatible with other hardware). Everything compiles, but when run it I get "BFL0: invalid nonce - HW error" The post at https://forums.butterflylabs.com/fpga-single-minirig-support/266-bitforce-single-fails-2.html seems to point at some bad/incompatible usb issues. My avalon miner also tends to crash after I plug a bitforce into the usb hub. Have you tried the BFGMiner Avalon firmware? This should work with both Avalon and BitForce devices. I've tried your openwrt package and it works on a new router that I got. I haven't tried it on the avalon since I put the screws back in the case (what a pain in the ass!) and don't have access to the USB hub now. FWIW, I tried several versions of cgminer (2.10.5, HEAD, usb-dev, psheps) and all of them fail on OpenWrt with "BFL Invalid nonce" errors. However, BFGminer does not error during mining. BFGMiner, however, does segfault on exit (and messes up the terminal screen). So my assumption is that bfgminer will work on the avalon based on it working on my tplink wdr4300. note: no way i'm going to try and install the custom bfg firmware...too risky.

at some point could you outline step by step how to upgrade firmware for all of us? i use a macbook pro. this is obviously going to be something we all will be doing regularly and none of us want to brick the avalon.

That's easy. Just login to the web interface, and go System -> Backup/Flash Firmware. Upload the firmware via web browser.

To repeat: upload the firmware via web browser: System -> Backup/Flash Firmware. From the perspective of the user (you), the firmware is on the computer with the web browser. You connect via web browser to the ASIC miner's OpenWRT web interface, and upload the firmware via web browser.
