I made like three posts asking you to update to latest firmware, dude, including the first reply of the thread (even though I edited it in 30 seconds after making the post).
Really happy to see that it fixed the issue for you.

[pc163]

so the issue related to the openwrt firmware? cgminer works well or not?

[rudrigorc2]

firmware updated: problem fixed.

[FreedomCoin]

so what happened, why did the firmware need to be reinstalled/upgraded?

[cchan]

Thanks for your sharing.
but not everyone will have this problem, seems you are unlucky.

[rudrigorc2]

so what happened, why did the firmware need to be reinstalled/upgraded?

due to early shipment. they release a patch after that particular unit had been shipped.

Shouldn't 297 other people have this problem?

I ran into the same problem tonight, it is caused first by 30 minutes of no internet connectivity due to my ISP's problem with their gateway (20 minutes), then cgminer restarted itself several times by cron and eventually entered into a mode that only throw error message like this in status page:

Socket connect failed: Connection refused
Socket connect failed: Connection refused
Socket connect failed: Connection refused
Socket connect failed: Connection refused

After network connection alive again, even a hard restart won't change the cgminer's error, so flash the firmware is the only choice and it fixed the problem for now

I have come across the exact same problem. It won't mine.

Did you flash the firmware without the previous configuration?

[PuertoLibre]

I also find these lines in the Kernel Log:

[   27.800000] br-lan: received packet on eth0 with own address as source address
[   30.800000] br-lan: received packet on eth0 with own address as source address
[   30.830000] br-lan: received packet on eth0 with own address as source address

[  961.170000] br-lan: received packet on eth0 with own address as source address
[ 1090.480000] br-lan: received packet on eth0 with own address as source address

[PuertoLibre]

I applied the API allow fix, didn't work.

I reflashed the firmware without saving the previous configuration. It started to hash away on the default settings that come with the firmware.

Soon as I changed the settings to BTCGuild (with stratum) it went right back into the same error.

Any ideas?
