you need to ssh in via this video.   but don't over clock under clock.

What's that, i dont get it, I dont have WiFi N.

[mstrongbow]

once you are @root (ssh into your S1) copy/paste each line and hit enter after each line...

cd /etc/config

vim asic-freq


use the "I" key to enter edit mode.

Add/remove the # signs as needed (no # sign indicates ACTIVE freq)

Use "ESC" key to exit edit mode
type ":wq" and enter then "reboot" and enter

Hope that helps

wifi can be hard to get to work.  I do all wifi workarounds at my location.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833704164&cm_re=tp-link_nano_powerline-_-33-704-164-_-Product  


 if your wifi router has some cat 5/6 ports

  one of  these plugs into the wall and your router.

the other plugs into the wall next to your miner and into your miner.   a wifi work around.   and if you have lots of miners       you pick this up

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833156251&cm_re=8_port_switch-_-33-156-251-_-Product



so  for 1 miner

 wi fi router > nano-powerline > house wire> nano-powerline >  antminer

for lots of miners :

wi fi router > nano-powerline > house wire> nano-powerline >8 port switch> lots of   antminers

I have a good WI-FI antenna that came with my Computer's wifi card, it came with 2 so could i just use one of them on the antminer?

[-droid-]

Guys I dont have a fancy multimeter, would it be possible to just pencil mod the resistors without a multimeter with a #2 pencil?  maybe just a few strokes on each to see what I get? then lower freq to 300 or so?

if it fits has has the right connector

I wont risk it, multimeters are very cheap, i just ordered one for 0.027BTC VIA Snapcard (The product is on amazon)

What connector/fit does the antminer have?

If I recall no as the connector on the antminer does not fit typical antennas  you need an adapter.   There are some that got wifi to work so it is possible.

 you could start a thread with a title.  ' I need help to set up wi fi for my antminer s-1 '

Ask for advice from some one that got it to work.  Most people needed some kind of adapter or trick to do it.
