At the wall, uploading video proof now, and photo of meter.

Confirming i'm not crazy 623W (240V) @ the wall with a total hash rate of 1.1TH~!

CRAZY!

That is for 2 Jupiters!

FW??

It must be for 1 jupiter, I didn't notice any difference in power consumtion between 0.97 and 0.96

Yup...ignore the crazy australian....carry on...was 1 after third time checking my cabling.

I'm noticing an absence of HashFast Trolls in this thread for some reason.  What happened cypherdoc?

0.97 also shows a continuous drop of hashrate for me from 500 to 470 (3 hour average eligius).

Actually.. it doesn't seem to be coming back in any previous firmware. Last value was 450 and that's where it stayed. I read compatible reports on KNC's forum. I fear 0.97 might damage bad Jupiters... Careful upgrading yours.

I think that "a few weeks late" notice for their shipping probably shut him down for a while...

.97: after couple of hours my hashrate dropped from 550 to 450 without any reason but reboot solve it. now considering downgrade to .96 - it runs at 540 for long days without this issue..

same experience here

KNC GUI & puTTy both show me at 541 all day - BTCG shows 480-500 most of the day.

am i missing something?

what's your % of HW error?

I have a similar issue. It was running fine up until I tried 0.97, then I went from 530 to 470 (520 reported in cgminer but tons of hw errors). Going back to older fws and I still have tons of errors!

The "firmwares" are arbitrary patches applied. I think KNC should provide some baseline fw that resets everything to a known state. Anyone talked to KNC regarding going backwards in FW revisions?

Any tips how solve the random miner stoping / freezing after 30-60min ? Pleseeee? It doesn't manke sense waisting more electricity then you mine back   + a fact .97 decrease the speed from 100 to a 1.7Ghas

knc released 0.96.1 saying that it will fix cgminer stopping after 30min running, give it a try

Alongside the list of firmwares available for download and installation, I'd like to see a list of changes each firmware has compared to the previous.  I could then decide if what the upgrade offers is in my interest to apply or skip if it addresses a problem I'm not experiencing.

I've been asking a detailed changelog for each released fw since forever. Eventually they'll release those info.

No 'Orama, no need for balance

concerning the changelogs, you could compare code on https://github.com/KnCMiner to get a clue what has been changed - but for sure it's not the same like a simple changelog you read in short time.

After reading yesterday's reports about 0.97 I was really close to upgrade - was just too tired in the evening and not in the mood to deal with possible issues.
Meanwhile I'm quite happy I'm still on 0.95.

UPDATE YOUR MINER TO THE LATEST FIRMWARE

Somehow I'm not sure how to rate KnCMiner's software development and quality assurance in general, as it seems they do neither proper testing, nor understand the root causes of issues since each time there's one solved, but another appears..
I'm happy they're better in hw development, otherwise Jupiter would hash with 290GH/s only while consuming 1kW, I guess 

Honestly I'm getting more and more disappointed about this.
Especially when considering that cgminer's devs could have prevented it very very likely, but KnCMiner was so self confident they will do it better, cheaper, faster (?!).

I do not like to think about the difference in mined coins until now.

I haven't had the issue of hashrate dropping on 0.97 yet. Running for more then 12 hours.

At 96.1 the speed is only 55Ghas

Well, you mined fewer coins, but so did everyone else using the same software, so proportionally you have no loss.

Those of us hosted customers, who got skipped in the queue, and are still waiting for our miners to get deployed, however....

i think this( cheaper) was their only concern. faster & better are non-existent terms with these guys - confidence - bucketsfull

im now on .96.1 - WU is below 8000 again - GH/s is slowly climbing back to 520 - see whats up in a few hrs

Yes you are. Stop measuring speeds at cgminer or go through Kano's posts for how to get the hashrate numbers using the hardware error numbers and so on.

It's really annoying all these people posting meaningless hashrates...

I've to admit that hosted miners are suffering way more (but they got some BTC compensation as far as I know).
However difference in mined coins was meant in regards of total amount in the wallet, not in relation to the network or hosted customers or sth else.

Yes, I'm happy with my device at 540+ (shown by pool), however it could even be a little better with the help of cgminer devs I assume - and that's all I like to point out in regards to GH/s and hw-errors concerning my quoted statement.
