[SOLD OUT] 1.45 BTC Antminer S1 180GH/S Shipps on Feb 13 (Price Protection)

[lowerjerzey]

Hij I am trying to setup solo mining of altcoin with Antminer S1 180.  It's a little different as it has it's own cgminer interface.....anyone know how to setup solo with Antminer s1 ?  thank you

Easy, I did it for Benjamins. Close your wallet.  Find out what the alt coin's .conf file needs to be named.  For Benjamins, it is benjamins.conf.  Go to where the wallet.dat file is at Users/your_pc_username/AppData/Roaming/altcoin_name/.  Create the .conf file.  Make sure you make the extension .conf and not .txt or benjamins.conf.txt.

Edit the .conf.  Add:
server=1
rpcuser=anyname
rpcpassword=anypass
rpcallowip=the_ip_of_your_antminer (I had multiple miners with static ip's set to 192.168.1.9X.  So I used 192.168.1.9* and it works)
rpcport=18332<-any free port will work.

Also, find a forum post with a list of nodes and add them to the .conf:

addnode=71.240.166.229<-don't use these, find them for your altcoin.
addnode=95.85.39.131
addnode=23.25.122.113
addnode=69.64.63.162
addnode=46.118.221.232
addnode=198.147.23.176

Now, login to your miner.  
Set all the pools to ipofthecomputerwiththewalletrunning:18332
Usernames to the anyname you used for the rcpuser.
Passwords to the anypass you set for rpcpassword.
Click Apply.

Now check the status to make sure it is running.  If status is Dead, your configuration is wrong.  Else, you should see work being done.

Good luck!

Edit:  By the way, I did better using a pool.

One of my S1 would show all "X" every now and then and would eventually return to all "0" or just a few "X" in a random pattern (anywhere between a couple of hours and a couple of days).  However, hash rate remains the same and consistent through all these cycles.  Has anybody experienced these occurrences with any of their units?  Is this just a matter of faulty/inaccurate chips status reporting?  Is this something to be concerned about?

If you get three in a straight line you win.

Another comedian, eh?

I check my S1 periodically. I always see "0" across the board and never have seen an "X" if that information is of any assistance. I'm just thinking maybe as simple as it being under powered? Proof is in the hash rate I would guess. Hard to argue with success.

After reading these statements, can someone please explain the merits of buying from sushi over Bitmain?

Not really helping those that are waiting on sushi, but I'm glad I didn't purchase through him.  I even considered getting hosting through him.  Plus, does he give coupons/discounts like Bitmain does for repeat customers?  I think I remember reading some posts that he did.

Bitmain
1st order, purchased on 2/27 shipped 3/1 arrived 3/4 --- 1.4BTC
2nd order, purchased on the 7th shipped the 10th. Should arrive the 13th --- .99BTC w/ .12BTC off coupon

Got 2 more damn coupons .08BTC and .05BTC off. They split the coupon in 2 and you can only use 1 per purchase.  Debating on buying another. 
3rd will be 0.914BTC w/ .08BTC coupon

Total for 3 = 3.304BTC

So I had the OpenWRT control board die on one of my miners, has anyone found a way to work around it by hooking 4 blades up to a single controller? I'm working through trying to get it RMAd via Sushi, but my experience has been that this may take a while, and this sort of downtime seriously impacts my ability to even break-even at this point.

Alternatively, has anyone taken a peek at the JTAG header and found a way to do much with them? I've tried holding the reset button while rebooting it, but the ethernet port never gets a link (amber light never lights up, let alone flashes).

I'd really like to diagnose the issue with the board, and hopefully get it working again. If there were an easy way to get a replacement board Stateside I'd try that (assuming it didn't cost too much) while waiting for the RMA process to be worked through.

It'd be really nice if these blades could be used more generically, or daisy-chained so one control board (or a PC) could access the ASICs on them.

Firstly, did u overclock it?

I have been trying to get my Ants out of Sushi's hosting for about three weeks. I finally got him to give me a shipping quote after almost two weeks of asking, then I paid for hosting and shipping with the promise of shipping in two days. Its been a week since then with no communication, no shipping, nothing. I am starting to think my Ants are not going to be sent. Anyone else tried to get their units out of hosting??

Sushi sent out mining comps. Apparently 540 GH/s would of only made .1689btc in the five days it was down starting the 14th of February. This is complete and utter bull shit now. Also, can you please look at the hosted miners and fix the one that is consistently running under hashed? Also. You owe me more than .1689 in comp. This is utterly rediculous to try and pass off as handled.

What you are experiencing is exactly what I was afraid of. My hosted miner with sushi hadn't started after a week, sometime after that I received a message to check my pool info. After a couple days of checking constantly, my pool and backup still showed nothing. I demanded a refund because hashing still hadn't started yet.

I'm really not any better off because I haven't received my refund. But it's been so long now (asked for refund on Feb 23rd) with no communication that I'm starting to wonder if I will get a refund at all

...does someone have *fresh* news about sushi?? ?? ?? ?? ??     (PM me too! )

This is common and is mentioned under item #6 in the "Trouble Shoot" section - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=344970.msg3696062#msg3696062.
My first 2 ANTS do this on a regular basis but hashrate is never affected.  Both are running bios 20131226 and cgminer 3.8.5-1.  My later ANTS with newer bios/cgminer don't have the issue.

S1 supposed to be shipped 2/28, now 3/11 was told it "probably shipped" on 3/7 but confirmed with DHL nothing shipped.

Anybody have news on him? Hopefully it's just a production hiccup but it seems like there's a lot of people who paid and got nothing in the past month and no updates from him
