Problems with Latest Shipments of Antminer S1s

[wmj]

Is anyone else having issues with the latest shipments of Antminer S1s? Or do you know how to fix the problems that I am having with the latest batch of Antminer S1's.

Out of 9 Antminer S1's that were delivered from Bitmain this month - only 1 is hashing.  The remaining 8 all have the same symptoms.

- Unreachable by either browser or putty
- One of the LEDs under the network port (the one closest to the fan) doesn't light up at all
- The LED on the secondary hash board doesn't light at all (Or in the case of 2 of them lights brightly and solid, doesn't blink)
- The remaining LEDs light, but don't flash with the same pattern as a working S1

I've already RMA'd three of them, but honestly - I'd prefer to be able to get them running before the difficulty rate goes up and the value of S1's goes down.  Also, I feel like I can't be the only one with these problems with the latest batch - and I'm interested if there's anyone else out there with similar problems.  I can accept that there would be a 10 or 20 percent failure rate... but 8 out of 9?

Please help.

I had one show up recently with the LAN port not lighting like you describe.  Try pushing on the LAN board to make sure all the cables are completely pushed in.  That was part and the other ribbon connecting the two boards was not sitting properly.  Hope that helps, but it sounds like your first problem is getting the network adapter to come on completely.
