'Orama,

I'd like to thank you for everything you've done so far. I made my decision to become a KnC customer after reading your detailed reports about the open day. Please know that there are many happy customers out there like me who appreciate your service. On behalf of the vast majority of the readers of this thread, thank you.

Well said! It's a +1 from me too.

Just hoping someone might be able to help as I think KnC may not reply til tomorrow. My hosted Jupiter is mining at a steady 216 Mh/s, its the same on btcguild. I have tried each pool for over an hour at a time, and the hash rate goes no higher than this. From the hosting panel, I cannot tell which firmware is applied. Any suggestions that might help? Thanks in advance for any tips.

good reason to flash  0.95 asap
and take http:// out of stratum address.

Thx for reply. My Jupiter is hosted, and I dont think I can tell which firmware update is applied. With the hosting panel address, I just have "stratum.mining.eligius.st:3334" in the pool config.

That does not sound good, I'd stay up tonight and call them... sry to hear
Have you tried just rebooting? one good way is to just reflash 0.95 on it anyway & hit apply...

You know, the interface for hosted units is very simple, possibly a little too simple, I am sure they are working on it. It isnt obvious to me at the moment how to reboot. Changing the pool sets it as 'pending' for a few mins, then it updates, but it doesnt indicate if this applies a restart.

P.S. ... Have you tried saving settings from CGminer?? DO NOT.
if you did... re-do it, and this time save to   /config/cgminer.conf   instead of the root/default save directory... I had problems with this early on. It reaks havoc on the gui, and slows speeds.

update...1 saturn, 4 days, 3btc

You are doing quite well, my Jupiter has been hashing since the morning of the 9th and I'm at 4.8

Was only able to get ~120-150 the first few days and since .95 I've been seeing ~420GH/s.  I'm really hoping we see a new firmware soon that fixes whatever is causing my now over 900,000 error'd shares.

Set your min diff to 256 or 512 on the pool.  The miner sends a lot bad shares when it changes diff.

It actually seems to be working.  Since switching, I've mined over 100k accepted shares with only 256 stale and no 'dupes' or 'other' errors.  The best part is that for the first time ever I saw it break 500GH/s (currently at 495).  I'm cautiously optimistic.

I had tried setting the min diff @ 256 before .95 and didn't notice an improvement.

edit... just as I typed this I started receiving 'other' errors again.  Over 12k errors and counting.  Hash rate down too.

Try 512.  You want it high enough that the pool won't change it to the miner, that's when it sends the 'other' errors for me.

This is over 24 hrs for me since raising the min diff:

Code:

501.80 GH/s	11,395k (99.91%)	9984 / 9984 / 0

I tried 512 and now my unit won't go over 350GH/s even after dropping it back down to 256.  Almost as if a module died on me.

The hosting interface doesnt specify what it does with cgminer, it doesnt let you fiddle with that.

I hate 'Orama and I hate KNCminer. They can do no right and in hindsight I could have done everything better. (I just didn't.)

Not the hosting interface, the GUI...
You get there by simply typing the miners ip address into the browser's address window, and use admin/admin for logon/pass

Anyone have an ETA on .96 firmware? my Jupiter is not stable right now on any FW.

[pgbit]

You get there by simply typing the miners ip address into the browser's address window, and use admin/admin for logon/pass

You cant do that with hosted miners. We dont get the IPs, and can only access via the simple control panel interface. No cgminer access is available via hosting.

Because it's almost 1am in sweden?

I have received a reply today from knc support.

[DigginDeep]

Yes its close to 1am right now...  BUT today was the day they claimed for months to have all orders shipped out by.  And not even a single word from them.  Not even an public apologize or an timeline update.  Witch is pretty shitty.

I can't believe the network hash rate....I new it was going to explode...but more than double?  

[Phoenix1969]

oyeah...x2

I order a lot of gear online and those tracking updates are a great feeling.

[DeathAndTaxes]

I can't believe the network hash rate....I new it was going to explode...but more than double? 

I made a thread to help people predict this.  Said 6 to 8 PH/s by end of the year.   Honestly I think now it will be closer to 8 to 10 PH/s.  By mid 2014 we probably are looking at 15 PH/s+  if ASIC companies serious cut prices (say <$2 per GH/s delivery in 30 days or less) we could see more than 20 PH/s.   I don't think 30-40 PH/s by end of 2014 is that conservative.   Worst case scenario we way overshoot and end up 50-80 PH/s and new sales flatline for a while.

Order 160X Jupiter was shipped, paid on July 01.

As usual, your predictions are spot on.  All of my spreadsheets agree...
