[Guide] Dogie's Comprehensive Bitmain AntMiner S1 Setup [HD]

[madpoet]

No custom firmware I am editing the miner config via ssh as per goxed's thread.

Is there a trick to getting the antminer to hold on to a reassigned static ip?

I go into the Network > Interfaces > Wan > and change the settings to an address on 192.168.1.x that is unassigned on my network, but when I hit save and apply it just hangs.  I've tried a few different times now, waiting 2 min, 5 min, 10 min, and after plugging the cable back into the router, the miner hasn't been reassigned to the new address.  I used the advance ip scanner utility and it still shows the same default address at 192.168.2.xx, which I can now not connect to either.  After shorting the pins to do a hard reset, I can re-connect again on 192.168.2.99.

Any ideas?

Here is what I did:
Bought silent 12cm fan and mounted it on opposite side of the miner, with soaking hot air out. I powering it with molex from PDU (no need of PWM).
Also covered top of the first half miner where original fan is located.

Temp 37c (both blades)
hashing 184 ghs stock. avg 181ghs

Original fan rpm are low so miner is silent and stable.

Need some case and tweaking, can be a lot better.

Yep I've also recommended they add a shroud of some form - then the tunnel design works well.

I dont remember this happening with Avalons. In the mean time you can do the reverse and set your router to keep giving the device the same IP - creating a static IP device out of a DCHP client. Alternatively, as long as the unit and router never turn off, its IP won't change.

Even though I dont have one of these I must say you do a hell of a setup guide!!

Nicely done sir!!

Added pinout info to OP:

My cables are braided or aren't color coded: See below diagram for pin-outs.

Hi All

just want to verify , miners with version 2 coming with Red$Black power connectors

Red for 12V and Black for ground ?

thanks

correct. yellow 12V lines go to the red terminals

i put a picture somewhere. basically the newer antminers dont have green scrw terminals - they are now red and black and also marked as + and GND

Forgive my ignorance but why would it be that I can't access my miner by entering the IP address in my browser?  The sticker is on the side and I double-checked with Advanced IP Scanner.  I'm sure I just missing something simple.  This bit from Dogie's guide confuses me though...

Make sure your router's subnet is 2, ie 192.168.2.x. This is just temporary.

What does that mean and how do I go about changing, if in fact I need to?

If anyone has the same problem, this thread here as more detailed directions on how to configure your router...

Mine is only hashing half!! (90 Gh/s). Any reasons why??? What's going on???

whats your miner status show? does one of the boards show the chips as 'x'-es, or is only 1 board visible?

I just figured that the control cable set was disconnected so I plugged it in and it enabled the other board.
However, my main problem remains that I can no longer access the WAN interface after I mistakenly set it as DHCP. I hadn't enabled WiFi so it's not getting any address from my Wifi either.

Any way to access it? reset it?

Thanks,

Check your router to see if its been assigned an IP you weren't aware of.
