For some reason, the only way I can connect to configure my eBit miners is if I setup a separate network on a spare router and hardwire the miner and PC to the same network. Once configured, they hash happily on my normal internet connected network. If I need to reconfigure them, I need to reconnect them to my solo network. I am I missing something or is this normal for the eBit miners? Has anyone been able to wirelessly access the configuration on these machines?
As far as I know they don't accept wifi connections.
Did you setup the machine for DHCP, or are you using a static IP?

It is using DHCP. Again, when I hardwire the E9 and my Laptop into the same solo Network, I can access the admin console. Once I configure it I plug it into an IOGEAR Universal Ethernet to Wi-Fi N Adapter which is wirelessly connected to my 192.168.1.x network but cannot connect to the admin console.
UPDATE!!!!!IT'S WORKING! Perhaps I was being too impatient. It seems that after 24 hours, I can see the eBit's on my 192.168.1.x network and can wirelessly get to the admin console. Giddy-up!
Getting this working wasn't a show stopper since I had a hard-wire work around. It's nice to have the convenience of not having to create an adhoc hard-wired network to get to the admin console when I need to!
