Innosilicon releases A9 Zmaster 50ksol/s Equihash miner at 620W

[bitliteethdashneo]

Does anyone have pricelist of manufacturer for Innosilicon A9 ZMaster.
My miner is holed up in airport for about 2 weeks now.
The DHL looks like its in collusion with customs and is finding out pricelist of manufacturer,
sending trace to origin and whatnots.

Regarding pricelist - its a method to determine cost of equipment when its not manufactured in imported country
and rest methods fails.
- search for method 5 in the below link.

Your receipt isn't good enough? What country are you in?

India

Hi,
I`ve just run into innosilicons offer, A9 Zmaster 1+1 for free, immediate shipping.

https://innosiliconshop.com/innosilicon-a9-zmaster-with-psu-innosilicon

They "helpdesk" claims that BOTH miners will be shipped immediately after payment, although I`m still unsure about this.
Is this even their real site or some kind of a scam?

Can someone confirm this?

Thanks.

The scam looks more real than this.

100% SCAM.

The whole ASIC thing is a scam!
They release an ASICs with 8 months ROI, then after 6 months they ship faster ASICs that send the diff flying! Then you need to wait another 4 months for a total of 1 year to get ROI.
By then even faster ASICs will be ready and you won't be making any noteworthy money after deducting the power cost.

Think people... if the ASIC miners are profitable, then why would the manufacturers sell them and not keep them for themselves?

[RivAngE]

I wouldn't spend $10k in something like that in order to make another company rich.
If I wanted to invest this amount of money somewhere, I'd just split it into BTC and altcoins. This way I'd support the projects I like without having to worry about hardware stuff. Maybe if enough people would do that then they'd lower the prices to normal levels.

And if you want a steady income, invest in a PoS coin like ARK (dPoS to be precise) or maybe ETH... which might finally become PoS in the future.

Agreed, scam. Just check out inno's real website they list this fraud directly I believe.

They sell them because it makes them money, sure they mine to. So do GPU manufacturers. Asic's can be profitable long after release. Yes new hardware comes out just like any component. Pending a bull market you'll see miners power up old asics and old gpus if it's worth it. Not saying don't be skeptical but there's not need to put the tin foil on. Yes it's a risk, weigh your options.

There is something to be said about helping secure a network with node, mining, and holdings. Not just one or the other. Early returns are there, early buyers will have ROI in the next 60 days from first shipments.  If you're buying now you're relying on market to continue to bull, this is the reason bitmain decided to wait til now to release their Z9 "full" and are still waiting to release their new SHA256 ascis. Market is on the rise as expected. Otherwise wait for the next asic and get in early but pricing will always be high as manufacturers want profits from mining and will sell at a premium because of market value. It's lame, but makes perfect sense.

I found weird thing on A9.

If you leave webpage open to miner, productivity for miner will be lower... Maybe because web-server is using a lot resources? I found with Nicehash, if web-page to miner opened it disconnects miner from pool very often.

I have never experienced pool disconnects with my A9, but I do not use nicehash.

I will test the theory of the web page opening causing performance decrease, but i highly doubt it.  The ASIC system is separate from the FPGA chip that allows networking/ssh/etc.  <edit> i see no correlation here

[Privatoria]

I’m sure that it is very good ASIC-miner, but also I’m sure that ZCash price will tend to zero and difficulty of mining will show us the way to the moon.

You just feel that. If you don't configure anything, the webpage is just getting information from miner to show on web and not using resources.
I am sure both nicehash and inno A9 have problems from their own. That's why our profits are not something as we expected. Just accept it

Has anyone been successful in disabling or changing the timed, auto-logoff feature from the html interface?  Frustrating to say the least.

Asics are designed to power on, run, and sit. Keep temps right and you don't have to do anything but collect coin. After 12 hours of run time and you have issues with stock performance contact the manufacturer.

Can somebody help to modify port forwarding, to  access to the miner from outside network? How to make static Ip and find open port on miner and how to configure router to access to the miner from the different network. I'm using ZTE MF286 router.
THanks in advance.

[ercueren]

Guys I just bought one, and started to mine.

I saw around 40-42 K/SOLS all the time, not reaching 50. (I currently use nanopool)

I changed the performance mode still the same. Current Firmware is b29+_20180706_032013
6th of July 2018 03:20 AM , I haven't updated to new one yet.

First and second cards are ok at rate of 14-15 Kslols but third one stuck at 10Klsos.

Do you have any idea ? Thanks in advance.

[nadeaup]

Is it a power issue? To confirm it is not a power issue, power off and then switch the pcie power connectors and see if the problem move to a different card. If it does, you have a power issue.
I would also try other firmware versions - let it run for a few hours before making a decision on which version runs best.

1, set static ip for your miner
2, register an account on dyndns and get a subdomain
3, add subdomain to your router and forward subdomain to your miner's ip. Choose tcp/ip as protocol.
Done
But, keep your eyes on your miner because hackers will find it.

[Gedaskv]

If to make port forwarding? is not save also?
What is the most efficient/safe way to log in from outside?
