You don't have to have ntp enabled in order for it to hash, just deselect the option and save and apply. I then suggest switching the ant off and on again so it boots up from scratch and that should take care of the problem...
Sometimes saving doesn't work very well and you need to click save and then click on the red text in the top right which brings you to a screen listing the changes... then click save and apply.
Edit: if it hangs on updating cgminer, you can wait for a minute and switch it off and on and the setting should be saved... I suggest switching ntp off first.
He will still need to SSH to it. And depending on his Ant version there is a slight difference (from v1.4 to v1.5). If you need help with SSH to disable NTP just let me know ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Thanks for the replies, I've disabled NTP in System Tab and rebooted but still the same error. Sometimes it has the gcminer error at the end, sometimes multiple of the same cgminer errors, sometimes just the daemon...error. I will need help with SSH, I don't know it at all. Thanks again --Nick Hi Nick, did you upgrade the firmware? I think upgrading the firmware fixes it. Upgrade the firmware on the Antminer S1 I believe I have the latest firmware: Linux version 3.10.12 (xxl@ubuntu) (gcc version 4.6.4 (OpenWrt/Linaro GCC 4.6-2013.05 r38031) ) #2 Fri Feb 7 18:50:12 CST 2014 still stuck with: Sat Mar 8 05:33:22 2014 daemon.info sysinit: ntpd: bad address '3.openwrt.pool.ntp.org' Sat Mar 8 05:33:22 2014 daemon.info sysinit: ntpd: could not resolve peer 3.openwrt.pool.ntp.org, skipping Sat Mar 8 15:12:01 2014 cron.info crond[576]: crond: USER root pid 1516 cmd /usr/bin/cgminer-monitor Thanks, --Nick

The problem is that even if you disable ntp in the gui, it still tries to run it once on boot up. You shouldn't need ssh for doing a standard setup, there's no need to learn that yet, you'll only need that to overclock or do more advanced things. Edit: you can also try giving your router a reboot, sometimes mine gets stuck...

Hi, a short question.
if i take a look at the network configuration i find to physical interfaces (eth0 (default dhcp) and eth1 with the static default ip). I know that the antminer did only have one plugin option for one cable but what is with eth0? is there a hidden 2nd option?
thanks

Can someone share list of frequencies and codes? I don't have my Antminer with me right now, and I am sure that default file did not contain frequencies like 395, 393 or 390, AFAIK.
Thanks in advance!

These are what I have, but I know there are other frequencies out there. The 375MHz was in the manual but not in the default asic-freq file. The 393.75MHz I found here in one of the threads... package 'cgminer'
config 'asic-freq' 'default' option 'freq_value' '4f81' #400M option 'chip_freq' '400' option 'timeout' '35'
#option 'freq_value' '5f05' #393.75M #option 'chip_freq' '393.75' #option 'timeout' '36'
#option 'freq_value' '4e81' #375M #option 'chip_freq' '375' #option 'timeout' '38' #option 'freq_value' '4d81' #350M #option 'chip_freq' '350' #option 'timeout' '40'

will a power supply function function if the 20+4 connector isnt plugged to a motherboard? ie: powering a miner, out of case, doesnt two of the plugs on the connector need to be jumpped? dumb question, im sure, but every psu ive dealt with so far has been to a mobo. if so, which pins?

How do you use 2 psu's on 1 antminer?
Do you power up the 2nd blade first then the main one with the control board?

Con wrote a function in cgminer that does the conversion from integer frequency (for the U1) which of course is also correct for the S1: https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer/blob/master/driver-icarus.c#L856

The control board is essentially a customized network router running the open source router OpenWrt. That's why you see some network interfaces in the web UI that don't have corresponding hardware connections on the control board like eth0. It's also why you configure the S1's connection via WAN setup instead of LAN.

IP address subnet mask ip default router <--- very important that this is in the same subnet as your IP address ip broadcast DNS custom 8.8.8.8 <--- name resolution. very important as well. sounds like you have ip default router/gateway issue if you're not able to ping to the "internet"

I'm pretty sure you need to turn them on at the same time or the second blade might not register on boot up, I'm not sure if it's plug and play. I did run a miner from 2 power supplies in the past and had no issues.

Nick, you will need to SSH on your miner and manually disable NTP.
Download Putty to do this.

there are 2 units that experiencing high HW errors (they are using the same firmware 20140207 and cgminer), what could be the problem? the units hasnt been OCed, and regardless a brand new unit from bitmaintech, i found dusty heatsink which indicates its being mined for weeks before sent out. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2F9twUh9q.jpg&t=665&c=tO5eZ_8fw1L_Dg) Man, those are the best HW% I've seen yet. Not even 1%. You shouldn't worry about those numbers. I'm not sure if I agree... with OC, less than 1% is good, but with standard 350Mhz my Ants were getting 0 HW errors... it was only once I Oc'd that they started to show up. It does look like your temps are quite high for those fan speeds though... what's your ambient temp there? Yeah I think heat is the issue. All my 2014's oc'd do .00x HW errors. the 2013's throw mega errors because they refuse to spin the fans more than 2100 rpm. My longest running one right now is 9days 19hours 122,280 HW 40,161,291 diffa 42,943 diffr 35,202 discarded 339 rejected fan 2640 44C/42C with puller fan even though those errors are low, my mindset is these need to not break down and heat is the #1 reason they will break down.

Yip, the problem is that the standard ant cooling is not designed for overclocking, it's designed to work at 350Mhz, any overclocking definitely needs extra cooling and if your fans won't go over 2100rpm as you mention then it sucks, even at standard speeds. Another problem is that the heat sensor is in the middle of the pcb when clearly the back end will be the hottest so the readings are also very generalized as people have shown with infrared photos. Not sure how much space you have, but I found this to be most effective; with fans on the outside blowing on the chips: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=443718.msg4920949#msg4920949One (2014) sits at 39 oC, fans around 2000rpm and .55% HW errors, the other (2013) doesn't like to go over 387,5Mhz, with the fan at 720rpm and temps at 40 oC and 1% HW but that's one's another story... P.S. I now actually have 5 extra fans per miner, 4 on the sides and one pulling out front... those are old photos.
