I'll give the first person .1 BTC who can help me get my antminer mining

[Caper_Barry]

Well here's the story. I am connected to the Antminer console and also the internet by Ethernet. I can input my pools into antminer but when I check the mining status...nothing. Any ideas? If you do happen to get this godforsaken thing mining I will compensate you with BTC, or the equivalent in some Altcoin if you prefer. Thanks so much!

It takes a few minutes to begin, at least from my experience. First time use of my S1, it took 5 minutes or so to start. Make sure your mining address/s is correct.

Does it say "Changes: x" in red font in the top right corner. If so you need to click the Save and Apply button.

I just can't understand everything seems to be in place, console open, top three pools added but nothing ever happens on the mining screen. Sorry if this sound newbish, I'm not a techie really. I've never had any problems with any of my other equipment.

Your miner might not be seeing the internet.

If you have a Dlink router like me, edit your WAN to

Protocol:  Static Address
IP4: 192.168.0.250
IPv4 netmask : 255.255.255.0
IPv4 Gateway 192.168.0.1
IPv4 Broadcast: blank
Custom DNS servers: 8.8.8.8

Save and apply.
Reboot, with a direct ethernet connection from Ant to router or switch

If this works, you can access your Ant via a computer on your network by directing your browser to 192.168.0.250

Thank so much for your reply. I input your suggestion but when I save and apply the screen just hangs, saying waiting for changes to be applied.

Good.  Disconnect from your computer.  Plug ethernet directly from ant to your router or switch.  Reboot the ant.  wait 2 minutes.  See if the green lights start hashing on the sides of the Ant.

If that doesn't work, you can reset the ant with the reset button, then try connecting via wifi.

Holy shit you did it! It's mining. What do you prefer to be paid in? If you wrote me exact instructions on how to do this if it goes down again I'll send you .15 instead of just .1. Either way thanks again.

[dulac97]

OK, I'll write you instructions after I get home from work.

Happy mining!

[Caper_Barry]

[dulac97]

First, make sure S1can access the Internet, you can check by Network-Diagnostics, then you may have to wait some time to see the status of the task plan is set to perform a 20s, cgminer start also take some time, so wait for 1-2 minutes is a good suggestion.

Thanks for the instructions, I really appreciate it. I would have wasted more time fucking with it without your help!
