Whoa... what's going on here??? Anyone else seeing ads in their antminer interface? Seems I'm being server flash banners since today...


I hope that you know this is not from antminer, it comes from your browser?

Am not sure this will work ( i dont have my ant yet)

but my plan is ( it may help you )

I have an old router, that I shall set to 192.168.2.1 (or whatever)

connect my PC by dhcp and the ant to my old router.

Make the necessary changes in the ant for my normal network with a static IP ( all my gear has static IP's so i know where they are).

reconnect PC and Ant to my home network.



Hmm, I think I am missing something.. My ethernet cable runs from my pc to my router. I can't run any more ethernet cables to my pc as my pc only has 1 ethernet slot for the cable to fit in.

The network cable from the antminer runs to the router.

But for some reason I receive an error saying:

Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to (the ip address of my miner)

Try reloading: (the ip address of my miner)

Any help at all would be very much appreciated Sad


You need to connect the Ethernet cable to the miner first and go to: 192.168.1.99 (or whatever address is on your miner) and log in and set up your pool settings and all the other things mentioned in sushi's post you've mentioned. Then you can unplug the cable and plug it into the router for the miner to start mining.

Note that if you are setting the IPV4 in windows for your pc Ethernet connection, you cannot set it to the same as the miner, so in windows you should have something like 192.168.1.2, it can't be the same as your miner.

Also note that 192.168.2.99 is the old address and it's now 192.168.1.99, so your pc and router need to be 192.168.1.[whatever]
Sorry, I just re-read and realized that your problem is your router is connected to your pc via Ethernet...

I'd suggest unplugging the router and plugging in the ant. You're going to have to change the IPV4 for your PC lan in windows to 192.168.1.254 because that's what the antminer is on. You'll then be able to access the miner via your browser on 192.168.1.99 so you can get into the gui as you'll have to change the ip of the miner to 192.168.2.99 for it to match your network settings. You can set up your pool info etc. while you are there, then you can reboot it and plug it in to the router and it should start hashing. You can then change the ip of your pc back to 192.168.2.254 and access the [edit]miner[/edit] through your browser again.

Hope that helps Smiley

Thank you so much for suggesting the above, and I have applied the above settings. But for some reason I am still running into problems.

Here is the current setup:

My Miner Configuration on website 192.168.1.99 has the following details:

Pool 1           192.168.2.99
Pool1 worker  fredtheduck (this is my username for BitMinter)

My IPV4 settings are currently set at "Obtain an IP Address Automatically".

If I set
Use the following IP address: 192.168.2.254
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.2.1

Then I lose my connection to the Internet (which is via cable).

The setup currently is I have Ethernet cable running from Antminer to Router, and a cable running from Router to Ethernet port in Computer.

Am I missing something here? Is it because My IPV4 settings are currently set at "Obtain an IP Address Automatically" ? But if I change this, I lose my connection to the internet?

I will be up all night wanting to fix this, and any help is much appreciated Smiley

If you can get to your miner's webpage by using http://192.168.1.99 then leave the IPV4 settings on  "Obtain an IP Address Automatically" as the network is working.

Go to the Network -> Diagnostics page and click on the Ping button below the box with openwrt.org in it. It should come back with the important line towards the bottom

--- openwrt.org ping statistics ---
5 packets transmitted, 5 packets received, 0% packet loss

How many packets received do you get?

Am I doing something wrong here?

Any suggestions would be much appreciated

adz7, how many Ethernet ports does your Telstra router have?

My Telstra router has 3 ethernet ports

Okay, so just plug one cable between your router and PC and another cable between your router and your Ant. Your Ant then needs to be set to the same IP subnet as your router and your PC, what is the IP address and subnet of your PC?

[/quote]

My IP address is 192.168.0.2
Subnet 255.255.255.0

I have plugged one cable from my Ant to my router, and another cable from my router to my PC.

Are you suggesting that i need to change the Miner configuration settings to match my computer IP address? I'm not sure what my Router IP address is, how can I check this?

TaDa...at least we know your problem is your network configuration and fixing it should be relatively easy. Do the above from the previous post 1st and tell me the response.

Okay..this is getting a little bit confusing as you are not stating which IPV4 setting are for what.

If you PC's IPV4 address is 192.168.0.2 Subnet 255.255.255.0 then your miner has have an address between 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.0.254 to make it work. To set the miners address do the following

Change your PC's IP address to whatever you need to get to your miner's web page

On the Network -> Interfaces -> WAN page set the following

Protocol "Static address"
IPv4 address 192.168.0.131
IPv4 netmask 255.255.255.0
IPv4 gateway 192.168.0.1
IPv4 broadcast 192.168.0.255
Use custom DNS servers 8.8.8.8

Then hit the "Save & Apply" button.

The miner will save those changes and will seem to hang or timeout whilst it is making those changes, this what is meant to happen because it has changed the connection parameters and you can no longer connect to it.

Now change you PC IP address back to its previous setting so you can get to the internet correctly. Power off your Antminer wait 10 seconds then power it back on again and see if you can contact it at http://192.168.0.131

Ok, firstly you are entering you miner config info incorrectly: you don't enter your ip in there, you need to enter the mining address of bitminter (no time to look it up)
Secondly: it looks like your PC and router network is on: 192.168.2.254, so you are going to have to change the IPV4 of your PC ip to 192.168.1.254 in order to access your miner. When you do this you'll lose connection to your router, but plug the ant straight into your pc via lan cable. Now open the browser and access you miner on 192.168.1.99 and change the ip of the miner to 192.168.2.99, save and reboot and plug it into the router. Now go back to your PC and change the IPV4 back to 192.168.2.254 and ou should be able to access internet again and you'll be able to access your miner on 192.168.2.254

Note: the number I have bolded has to be the same on the miner and the router network or the miner cannot access the internet.

Good luck!

P.S. another quicker way to go about it would be to leave your PC IPV4 on "obtain ip automatically" and change the network your router uses and assigns so use 192.168.1.[0-254] and then everything ill work automatically with the default ant settings.

Well - the other possibility is pirating software by visiting download/hack sites.
I thought I'd be nice with my guess of which it was.
Yes it is blatantly common for home users to screw up their computers visiting porn web sites.
One of the reasons why I ignore people asking me to fix their computers - is that about 50% of the time the problem is exactly: porn related.

pirating software = illegal
porn = most likely legal - depending on where you live

Yep you're being nice by inferring that they are unlikely doing anything illegal Smiley

I agree with you about fixing other peoples computers, I have given up doing that even for friends toting bottles of whiskey .... most are Trojan/virus/adware related problems

5 packets transmitted, 5 packets received, 0% packet loss

Is this good? Smiley

And you know this from experience kano  Grin
Well - the other possibility is pirating software by visiting download/hack sites.
I thought I'd be nice with my guess of which it was.
Yes it is blatantly common for home users to screw up their computers visiting porn web sites.
One of the reasons why I ignore people asking me to fix their computers - is that about 50% of the time the problem is exactly: porn related.

pirating software = illegal
porn = most likely legal - depending on where you live

Yep you're being nice by inferring that they are unlikely doing anything illegal Smiley

I agree with you about fixing other peoples computers, I have given up doing that even for friends toting bottles of whiskey .... most are Trojan/virus/adware related problems

PS: I don't mind helping noobs on the forums but that is about my limit these days.

Your personal opinion, what is the best mining pool to use? I'm trying to use my BitMinter java client that I've downloaded to my PC, but for some reason the Java client doesn't recognise my miner:

This is the following information that I have completed under Miner Configuration:
Pool 1: tcp://mint.bitminter.com:3333
Pool 1 worker: my bitminter username
Pool1 password: my bitminter password

What else would I need to do in order to have my BitMinter Java client recognise my Ant Miner?

I've followed the above instructions, and I can now access the internet while also accessing the IP of my miner. Do I need to check for anything else?

Your ant's network seems to be setup correctly so to check you should be able to get to the Internet from your PC, get to the Ant on http://192.168.0.131 and ping openwrt.org from the miner with 5 packets received without changing any network settings.

If that is the case then you just need to fill in your Pool details to start mining on the Status -> Miner Configuration page for example,

Pool1                 stratum+tcp://stratum.mining.eligius.st:3334
Pool1 worker      12pYWpT7wfmKgoiK7HaAfy8DCeuYofJRHt_ineedit1  (that's my account put your own username)
Pool1 password   x (put your own password here and if you do not need a password then just put x as an Antminer likes a password)

Hit Save and Apply and then wait a few minutes for the cgminer process to re-start and stats to appear on the Miner Status page.

Forget the Bitminter Java client on your PC, an Antminer connects directly to the pool, your PC could be on or off as far as an Antminer is concerned.

PS: You would only use something like Bitminter Java client if you had a miner physically plugged into your PC such a certain USB miners.

After I go to Network > Diagnostics > Network Utilities > select Ping under openwrt.org the following appears, which appears to receive 5 packets:

PING openwrt.org (78.24.191.177): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 78.24.191.177: seq=0 ttl=45 time=320.958 ms

64 bytes from 78.24.191.177: seq=4 ttl=45 time=320.564 ms

--- openwrt.org ping statistics ---
5 packets transmitted, 5 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 320.564/322.598/327.736 ms

Then I go to Status > Miner Configuration and under Pool1 worker, I wanted to ask:

This part of the string  -  12pYWpT7wfmKgoiK7HaAfy8DCeuYofJRHt - this looks unfamiliar, do I insert my Bitcoin wallet address here?

Thank you for your help, I really do appreciate it

 12pYWpT7wfmKgoiK7HaAfy8DCeuYofJRHt is my wallet address for mining at eligius.

If you want to start mining at eligius use then use the pool1 info I put in my post and one of your own wallet addresses, eligius then uses that as your username and makes any payment to that address.

Thank you so much, I would be happy to send you a small donation, as a token of thanks for helping me to get set up.

Where can I check to see how many coins that I've mined throughout the week?

I tried to search for Eligius and was brought to http://eligius.st/~wizkid057/newstats/mystats.php
