GAW Miners (Scrypt/SHA256 miners and Hashlet cloud) independent feedback thread

[arthur jones]

So the Fury at $140 right now and at or just under 50 watts is progress.

It's not as good if you compare four Blizzards/Furies to one Gridseed Blade, which outperforms them at half the power consumption and costs roughly the same. On the other hand, for the price of two Blades you can get the next-one-forgot-its-name Zeus clone, which is 13-14 MH/s. So I guess they're somewhat competitively priced now, depending on which price point you're looking at.

Yes, but the power use much worse for hardware Zeus. Gridseed equipment uses much less energy. Innosilicon consume less energy. More hash but more power all around.

Page hashmaster not send me a confirmation e-mail, so instead I write here.

Hashmaster works now, maybe I get caught in yesterday data problem

anyone get the intel controller?
any directions on how to get the web interface up?
they say its plug and play and you just go to the web interface and config.

I don't have it but I would guess that you need to find its IP address and then enter

in your browser. To find the IP address you can use something like this http://angryip.org/

I want to say I am extremely happy with my GAWMiner!

My fury is hashing at a stable 1.32 MH/s. You can see there are some complaints in this thread, but that is because most people are only loud when something goes wrong, and with more than 9000 orders there are bound to be issues - that is expected. But gawminer support is very good.

Tip, if you want to order use coupon code 5OFF, this gives you 5% off the order. I don't know if it still works or when it will expire.

I tried to make a purchase with the discount code but it didn't work.  Maybe someone used it?  How did u get the code?

[hamburgerler]

Sorry about that! That coupon is no longer active.

GAWMiners is worth their nominal price though, especially with their customer service and ability to ship on time

If you are a new customer, you can get $20 off $200 (so up to 10% off). Great for a fury + zencontroller, which work awesome together (especially for those that are new to mining). Use a referral link to unlock that promotion. If you would like to use my referral link, click here or here. However bear in mind my satisfaction with gawminers is COMPLETELY unrelated to any referral programs.

even on hashmaster site people complain about shipping delays, what you talking about?

[arthur jones]

Man, my hosted machines are down, the UI is down, and hashtrader is down. This is really getting frustrating. 

the GAW muster all power to take picture of war machine to prove it real ---- so exciting!

hashtrader is down

I have a feeling that this site is hosted in the same five state-of-the-art datacenters as the miners.

This will not happen again

Words never to be uttered.

if it were that easy, I'd be done and good, but there's not even website software running anywhere that I can find.

Sorry for assuming you were a noob. If you list what you tried so far I'm sure someone would come up with an idea how to hack the thing.

Earlier in the week hashtrader was down because of an issue, this was an outage out of our control.

Today, we are in the process of upgrading the software and features of hashtrader, so we have chosen to take it offline. Very different then a technical outage.

There will be times we will be adding new features, etc. We will choose the most low traffic times to do it. For hashtrader, that time is now.

Something about how the data base works, we can not have changes being made to it while its being upgraded. This was part of the crash earlier in the week. They were making changes while it was live.

My dev guys assure me that it "wont happen again" but I will not risk it. So I told them to disable the site until they finished the upgrades.

I've been trying to get a response from GAWMiners.com customer service since Monday morning and have had absolutely no luck using their chat, email, phone, and support. I don't see an excuse at this point and my only course of action is to cancel the order I have with them and get a refund. It's the first time ordering from GAWMiners.com and the last. I've waited on the phone until the very end a few times all three days at which point you are offered to leave a message which I did on Monday and again first thing this morning. I emailed yesterday and today as well as. I used their website chat Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and left a message on the chat which it indicates to do when no agent responds. I also sent a message through their contact page web form and still nothing. I would say in 72 hours any one of these things should have been sufficient to get a response. I was told last week someone would get back to me regarding some sales questions and that never happened. I'm sure some of you from the sounds of it have had some good customer service. I rate my experience at the top of the horrible scale.

gawminers intel controller with gridseed

I am having an issue getting more gridseeds on here. They do spit out an error that seems to be too many USB devices, but won't go past 32 gridseeds. The USB limit should be near 127 devices minus the USB hubs right?

This device cannot do calls on its own. It is not a modem.

Tried cycling the cmc_acm with no luck.
Not sure where to go from here.

my hosted Fury

whenever it goes down

You dumb referral spammers should try reading what you post. So the Fury has been available for a couple of weeks. How many times has it gone down?

To anyone tempted to click on these "$20 off" links. Try to rub your two brain cells together and figure out how to get a discount without feeding forum spammers.
