I got my 180 GH/s machine today.  Ive got the network setup, I have SSH access, and I have the pool configured.  I had to turn off the NTP setting in order to make it not hang when saving.  As far as I can tell everything is perfect, I even get a good ping from google servers through the ssh. 

With all this the thing will NOT hash.  No activity at all in the miner area, or on the pool.   What is the correct way to add a stratum pool and worker?  I believe I have it right but Im grasping at straws here at the moment.  Huh
It's quite slow saving some settings .... read somewhere 2-3 minutes .... worried me some at start but went away and had a coffee

Once I got it onto the network, all I did was put in the pool data and saved it ... away it went

You talking about this cable?

The extension cables are for CPU, where the 12V lines are on the same side as the clip and are yellow too, so the polarity was not wrong.
But when I stripped the cable at the end to go into the connector the wires inside looked really thin and flimsy. The markings on the cable says 18AWG and 80 degrees, but I have a 18AWG cable and the wire inside is really think compared to these.

Yeah, Do not use those.  You got ripped off  by One Hung Lo  mfg co.  I had bought some PCI extender cables, when I stripped it there were ONLY 5 TINY STRANDS of copper inside the wired labeled 18AWG! They  were more like 26AWG.  I took them back to microcenter and finally got my money back after making a stink of the safety hazard these posed.  Dont go cheap on extender cables, sadly, you cannot trust those off brands, they can burn your house down.   Maybe Cablez can make some for you?

No, that doesn't sound like a converter cable. I want to convert my 8 pin CPU cable to 6 pin PCI-E, so I can plug it directly into the PCI-E connector on the board.

I will definitely return them, but I need to act quick as my miners are idle.
I can make them myself, but I am looking for a ready made solution, that I can just buy quick.
Any ideas?

Mine was slow saving settings as well.  I disabled the NTP via the web gui and SSH command and it saves in a few seconds now.  I can confirm the settings by looking at the files in SSH command but the thing will just not hash.

In the diagnostics tab can you successfully run the ping or traceroute to openwrt (or whatever it is)?

Ill try that now

Which one of these do I use for the pool url?

1: stratum+tcp://osc.ispace.co.uk:3335
2: http://stratum+tcp://osc.ispace.co.uk:3335
3: osc.ispace.co.uk:3335
4: http://osc.ispace.co.uk

also im entering the worker name as:  PoolUsername.workername

Cyper, I thought the cx600m had 2 pci-e connectors?

Does it use a split pci-e connector? I think I ordered the wrong PSU =/

Would using this cable on the peripheral port work?
http://www.corsair.com/us/parts/psu-parts/type-3-sleeved-black-pci-e-cable.html

It has only 1 cable with 2 branches.
My initial idea was to use the 8 pin CPU connector with an extension, where I cut the cables at one end and just plug them in the board connector, but something went really bad there.
Now I have connected both branches of the same PCI-E cable and all seems to be working just fine - I was measuring temps with an IR thermometer for like 20 minutes.
Obviously I would prefer to use the CPU cable, but I would not risk it with these cheap quality extension cables.

Now I have to find a way to use it.

I've been using  2 cx600s with 2 ants for about 4 days now. I have been using the supplied PCI connector without issue.  I know this isn't recommend. I check the cables with an ir thermometer at random intervals They haven't been hot at all. My ax860 will arrive on Wednesday.

Any ideas what kind is that white flat cable? is it easily replaceable?
Also does the 8 pin extension cable look good enough?

Data cables looks like these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lipo-Balance-Extension-Charger-Cable-Lead-8s-JST-XH-8-cell-29-6V-/231066108766?pt=UK_ToysGames_RadioControlled_JN&hash=item35cc9d035e

Except you need a male 2 male. I found them when I google "jst 8pin cable".

SSH into your miner and try: ping 8.8.8.8

If you get a successful ping then you have net access but no DNS.  To fix this, go into your webGUI and change the adapter's DNS entry to 8.8.8.8.  Reboot the unit and then try the diagnostic check(s) again to see if it works.

You would use:  osc.ispace.co.uk:3335          

No need for the http:// or tcp+stratum://

Taking a guess I would say that you need to put 8.8.8.8 into 'WAN/Custom DNS Servers' in the web interface.

MAKE SURE YOUR NETWORK (WAN) SETTINGS ARE:
ip: 192.168.X.XXX
subnet 255.255.255.0
router: 192.168.X.1
ipv4 broadcast: BLANK
dns: 8.8.8.8


the initial settings do not work on 95% of home networks without clearing the ipv4 broadcast and changing the dns

anyone have list for power supply that work with S1 ?
I just kill a Corsair VS550 after 3 minutes powering S1.
one member say use corsair RM850, any cheaper ?
Is it actually dead? The problem is that the VS series is group regulated, so it uses both the 5V line and the 12V line in its feedback circuit. If you draw current from only the 12V rail, the voltage on the 12V rail will drop a lot (sometimes under 11V) and the 5V rail will go really high, which can cause it to shut down. I have a VX450 that is similar, it will shut down if I try to run a Single or S1 on it, but if I draw 1A from the 5V rail it runs fine.
Yeeaaah, my VS550 alive again.
you right it just shutdown, and need some time to recover.
now i'm using it just for 1 blade, still afraid to using full 2 blade.
i will look for 5 ohm resistor 10 watt for 5 volt dummy load.

Disable NTP. Saving will hang if the miner cant connect to NTP.
And try ping openwrt.org from diagnostics.

If the ip/network settings are changed, the page will not continyue to auto-refresh -> just refresh the page/go back to the miner IP address and it will be up-to-date
