[/code] well what you posted showed no bad chips and what you have is based on the avalon1 design using the avalon2 chips the later avalon2 that firmware will not work as they need the the chip freq and Chip voltage to be set and there is a bug in the avalon2 drive for cgminer that still needs to be fixed to work

Ok Thank you for that info. I only have these BTMine units with Avalon2 chips. Very common ones in Bitcointalk. My very first hashunit in that log is only hashing 50% of speed. it has 5 out of 10 chips dead, cold.

Hi! Please, help me, I cant tune my avalon 2 to normal working with router about a several days . I try to use wi-fi and cable connection, but result was the same - asic can't get the access to network. I use an official penultimate firmware and cgminer. I connect it with router, but can't ping nothing, of course mining isn't working. Router is ok, can DHCP, DNS and others functions. And now I accidentally delete lan profile connection on asic. I just want to make a new profile, but it was too late, cause after that it disconnect, and now I can't get the access even direct connection by cable to my pc. I already try to change my pc ip in options of OS and try to find it for pc via scanning all ip addresses and ports, but it can't find. I try to use reset on asic repeatedly but it doesn't work. What should I do to connect it with router or pc though?

Things were humming along, then rig stopped working with the: [Firmware Version] => 20140324 cgminer: 698d677 cgminer-openwrt-packages: aadd747+ luci: 346e3e7+ Socket connect failed: Connection refused
Errors, after reboot connects for a moment but never hashing all discarded. Then error returns and cgminer process ends.
Tried diff IPs, updating firmware (currently on 20140324), diff pools, etc. Ping/tracrt/nslookup all working.
Where to go from here? If you get it running again, I'll point to your acct for the rest of the day.
Hello , i had the same problem , it says 0.0mhs . It is the power supply , you got to trust me and change it, the fans dont work right? Fans were working properly, after PS swap the boards started hashing again.

Hi all, I have a Avalon 2nd gen 220ghs device that had been working without any issues for a month. Couple of days back I noticed that the hashing had gone down to 0 and "orange" light was on where it used to be "red" light. I noticed that the PSU fan was not running so i just restarted the device and it started to hash again. In the last couple of days this thing of "red" light turning "orange" and the PSU fans not running has increased. I have attached pics of how it looks. I was worried that it might become worse so i have it shutdown now. I am not sure if this the avalon controller board prob or PSU and it would be great if someone could help troubleshoot. F/W ver: 5th Mar 2014 Images are here: http://imgur.com/hsKN2XD, http://imgur.com/D751szp

my avalon once in a while stop hashing as well (2-3 days or sometimes once in 5 days). FW version 3.10.12. reboot cannot make it work, the only way to start hashing by disconnecting the power supply and switch it on again. is it FW issues?

It could be a Firmware issue but it is Hard to Say

I don't know whats wrong with what I am doing... after hours of searching and trial and error I just can't get a bootable firmware on my raspberry pi! There are many img files in the firmware section and a "rootfs" file... I just cant seem to get openwrt to do anything! Can you boot and log into it with SSH like any other distro or am I missing something? There are no clear instructions on flashing a rpi from windows with current firmware and set up my avalon 4 module 100gh.
Any help would be so appreciated and first guy to give me the correct method gets .02 btc! I am desperate.

ok thanks I will message you.
--edit--
Thanks for the offer, but I must have missed you. I think I finally got what I was doing wrong! I was treating openwrt as any normal flavor of linux, but it is far from it... its more like it just turns your pi into a fancied router that can mine bitcoin. Just incase someone stumbles over this thread I will put the instructions I wish I had.
--If your Avalon is not running OpenWRT and you want the latest firmware/cgminer--
How to get OpenWRT mining on your Raspberry pi (or at least what I did and seemed to work):
Download one of the images of openwrt from firmware page (I used the sd-ext4) Download the raspberry pi root folder archive Flash the openwrt image to your card Plug it into your computer with an ethernet cord and enable that connection (disable others) & log in using Putty > telnet connection: 192.168.1.1 type passwd and set the root password exit putty take the sd card back out of the pi boot a linux distro on your PC with the SD card connected to the PC download / move the raspberrypi root filesystem archive to linux open a terminal as superuser and or sudo nautilus overwrite the old sd card filesystem / replace files with the one from the archive navigate to the /etc/conf folder and set the network settings to what you would set a normal static IP client on your network as (not as a router) you can now log into the web configuration by typing the IP you just set in the network conf files
After that it is pretty self explanatory... miner settings are right there in the web config as well as many other things.
Thanks to everyone on these boards or I never would have figured it out <IMANEWB>

LOL well... after all that work, I managed to figure out the net config problems and get the OpenWRT to work just as it is intended! The bad news? I just realized that this is a batch 1 Avalon not a 2!!! So the avalon 2 firmware seems to be useless to me! It ends up that I have an Avalon 1, and I can get it mining with the Debian Wheezy SD card it came with, but only by SSH... and I would love to have a web interface. Is this possible? Because all the firmwares I see on the site are for the TP-Link controller which I do not have, and have heard it has crash issues.
How difficult is it to get the Avalon 1 working with a nice web ui and overclock options on a raspberry pi controller? Possible?
--edit--
Also I would like newest firmware because I don't think the person I bought this older miner from ever updated it... and that is another reason I want to flash a new system to the SD.
Specs:
Avalon 1 4 Module (20-25GH per) = 100GH average
