[Antminer S1 Sales open] Price changes daily, now 0.414 BTC for 180GH/s

[ZiG]

Some problems getting everything running.
Ive got the antminer connected to my power supply no problem and up and running.
Can connect to it via web browser and log in change settings no problem.

Updates the wan to my router ip,
set miner config to
http://stratum.btcguild.com:3333
casinocoin_1
123

hit apply everything updates go to miner status and nothing, I have tried multiple variations of pools etc and nothing seems to work.
Rebooted the device, and nothing.

Any ideas on what to do from here? Green light is flashing

What did you set the Ant Ip to?  What did you set the broadcast IP to?  Did you try setting DNS to 8.8.8.8 ?

my router ip is 192.168.0.1
ant ip:
Left it the same as I only have one. the sticker up is 192.168.1.99 so I left it at that
broadcast nothing and then also tried 192.168.0.255
i tried the google dns as well yes, and tried switching it to my router.

remove http://
or try stratum+tcp://stratum.btcguild.com:3333

Tried both, but will keep trying other things to see if I can get it.

Anyone ideas?

Your router is no a DIFFERENT Subnet ... 192.168.0.1 ...

Need to change to 192.168.1.1...in order to see your Ant @ 192.168.1.99 ...same subnet...192.168.1.x

Hope it helps...

If your router ip is 192.168.0.1 then you have to set your Ant on the same 192.168.0.x network.

Set your Ant to 192.168.0.199, then it should start working.

...or your Ant to 192.168.0.99 ... hehe...with your current router setting ...just kidding ...

anything above your current router IP address 192.168.0.1 ... on your Ant ...192.168.0.2 to 192.168.0.255 will be OK...

What is the range of IPs set on your Router?  Is it set from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.0.254 ?

It was more like batch 2.5 Batch 3 isn't released quite yet. I'm sure Bitmain is in the zone building machines like crazy so they can immediately ship Batch 3

I hope they do something about the case design. They can't keep shipping them with little plastic holders.

[Threader]

BITMAIN needs to ship them with all boards removed from slots and individually bubble wrapped and carefully packed and stacked inside the case. then play football with the packing prototype and then unwrap, assemble and test for full functionality.


or else more bad press resumes. pity. S1's were bullet proof for sadist shippers and moron handlers

You seem to refer to the S2, while this is the S1 thread (as you suggest, it is 'bullet proof' with no plug-in boards, however it does not have the hash rate, efficiency and enclosure of the S2). 
Looks like Bitmain went back to the drawing board to improve the S2, that's probably why there are plenty of price cuts on the S1.
Just got another S1, all working without any dramas.

Cheers

How fast does bitmain ship their miners? I ordered a couple of days ago and payed instantly, but the site still says unshipped. Or do they just not update the shipment status on their webpage?

Sometimes they are slow to update web and once it ships it could already be halfway to you. I would be surprised if it doesn't change status today.

You were right

Status changed as I was writing my post...

Now lets hope it arrives soon and doesn't get hold up at belgian customs too long...

Bitmain are fast, however you need to factor weekends and holidays (that also affect shipping/courier companies).  I ordered on 18 Apr, it was shipped on 19 Apr, however it hit the weekend and Easter, so was delivered on 23 Apr (today).  All configured and working by now (had the PS and other stuff waiting).

You are right I was talking about S2 by error in a S1 thread. S1 shipping packaging was perfect.

New price for AntMiner S1: 0.831btc each one, shipping cost included.

[s1lverbox]

New price for AntMiner S1: 0.831btc each one, shipping cost included.

Daily s1 going down because...no one is interested any more like it was before.
Even this price is still to high.
Simple math:

1Th/s(6x s1=1150Gh/s overclocked) cost at this time 4.986btc
customs in uk- 6x 55gbp=330 (1.14Btc)
PSU 750w x6= 96gbp (0.33Btc)
---------------------------------------------
So 1Th/s cost 6.456Btc

One s2 cost at this moment 6.57Btc + customs

A1 clone cost 2300usd which is 4.55 with psu or 4.38Btc without delivered. Ofcourse bitmain quality cannot be beaten but 1Th is 1Th dosn't matter who delivers that.

1Th/s can generate daily no more than 0.0721Btc so 1BTC will be generated at this diff every 2 weeks.
So ROI can be reached after 3-4 months, depends on diff jump.

Damn ASics are so overpriced....

[PatMan]

Yet people still advertise used S1's for BTC1.......then wonder why they don't sell

I agree.

The only reason to buy an S1 at this time is for hobbying.

Otherwise you are retarded.

Sent me a used antminer. Manufacturer date was 1/14. Order date was 3/14. Fan and heat fins were dirty and covered with dust. The antminer had been used from the time of production to the sale date. The heat fins were also physically damaged. Both blades were not soldered properly and were separating from the base. I have included pics in the links so you can see for yourself. I contacted Juan from 112bit and he was not helpful at all. He told me i am not the manufacturer contact bitmain. He no longer responds to my emails. If you have any problems he will brush you off and say im just a distributor i cant help you contact the manufacturer. Do not buy from 112bit or bitmain. 112bit is just a middle man and can't do anything but take your money. Bitmain is a chinese manufacturer. They have low standards for quality. They will not accept any responsibility for anything. All of the financial burden is on the buyer. They do not care about their customers. All they care about is mass production and sales. This has been an ongoing issue. I have returned the antimner and requested a refund due to the amount of mining time lost waiting for a replacement. I was told i pay return shipping and they will give me a refund when delivered. After the antminer arrived in china i was told they will not give me a full refund. I am responsible for the original shipping cost, return shipping cost, and import tax both ways. I have not been told how much of a refund i will receive but it will be around $200-300 less than what i paid. And to be perfectly honest, i have a feeling bitmain will come up with some BS excuse such as it was not returned in the original condition and they can not give me a refund or replacement.
