Hi GekkoScience,
Why is my R606 always running at around 200MHZ???
Shouldn't it be at 550Mhz like the T and the command?
Also, Is there a special command to turn on ASIC boost?
Also assuming you're using a Win10... try this:
Maybe use two instances of cgminer... First, with all 5 of your miners connected, but not running, use the Command Prompt from the folder you are running cgminer from and type `cgminer -n' (No quotes, of course...) Look for:
USB dev 31: Bus 1 Device 29 ID: 0403:6015
Manufacturer: `GekkoScience'
Product: `R606 Bitcoin Miner'
Your dev, Bus, and/or Device numbers will likely be different than mine above - the Bus and Device numbers are what you need. Create a separate batch file for your R606. Using my example, add the variable `--usb 1:29' (again - no quotes) to your batch file, remove references to NewPacs and then save it.
I run my 606 batch first, then add (in your case), the four Newpacs in a separate batch - no references to R606.
After all five are running, you should be able to (if needed), close down the R606 cgminer and restart it again with different settings and the four NewPacs still running... I still check the Bus and Device numbers, which shouldn't change - before I re-run the R606 batch, but hey, we're talking about WinDoze...so - best to check.
My R606 runs in a separate cgminer instance. It runs through a GS Hub with NewPacs in it. They all run together to one of the two USB2 Ports I have... I have lots of Newpacs running thru GS Hubs that land on USB3 Ports at the Win10... No problems, here.
I believe Asic Boost is now the default, but there
is a special command to turn it off.
Also - you're working the miners way too hard... Suggested difficulty for you should be:
550 * 6 * 0.228 * 5 = 3762 for the R606 (at 550)
200 * 4 * 0.228 * 5 = 912 for the four NewPacs (at 200)
Those are terrible numbers, even for NewPacs at 200MHz - you should be hitting about 45.6 GH/s for each... Just that alone suggests an underpowered hub...What is your setup?
