Use the MultiMiner. It uses BFG and there is a check box for restarting suspect miners. So far it keeps mine running consistently and happily. Nwoolls is the creator too so same great support. Now, all I have are my gridseed g-blades dropping off after 2-3 hours (this didn't happen with v4.2.0) & not all will hash anymore. Out of the 3 g-blades, each consisting of two boards, only 5 1/2 boards will hash, which randomly changes to another board not hashing, every time I restart bfgminer v4.3.0 or v4.4.0.
While I'd encourage you to try v4.2 again, there are known issues where GridSeed devices (DualMiners, Blades, Orbs, etc) stop generating nonces / shares. It's there in other drivers as well, for CPUMiner and CGMiner. The next version of BFGMiner will include a new feature of the current watchdog to watch for nonces found by devices and compare those to pool difficulty. Basically if a device isn't generating shares anymore, it will be caught by the watchdog. In addition the GridSeed drivers (DualMiner and GridSeed) will reinitialize the device when this happens. That sounds promising. Doh!!!! ...there goes one of my G-blades zero hashing again. ![Cry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cry.gif)

Which "kmod-usb-serial" support for bitfury/ redfury BF1 USB on OpenWrt Router with bfgminer? My bitfury BF1 runs well on bfgminer/Win 7, but usb undetected on openwrt event I install: kmod-usb-serial-ftdi kmod-usb-serial-cp210x kmod-ub-serial-pl2303

@nwoolls
Could you make a firmware with bfgminer on tplink MR3020? The WR703n is not easy to find. For my area the WR703n is totally replace with MR3020. I know the cpu are the same but dont know if they can interchangable with flashing.
Want to send me one? ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) I'd be happy to make a build if you wanna send one or donate $45 USD in BTC or something similar. Or if you take a look at the repo I've posted, the scripts are all commented and should be capable of building for that router with a few changes. Check out the shell scripts here: https://github.com/nwoolls/BFGMiner-OpenWrt-ToolsI can send you one of MR3020 (it should be lower than45USD in my area). Can you tell me where you are, so I can calculate the shipping price? If the total price is more than 45 USD, I think I will send you some BTC or LTC reflecting to this amount.

Sure - I'm in Maine in the US. I got $45 from checking Amazon, where they seem to be going for about $40 USD. Let me know what works for you. If you'd like my physical address send me a PM. Thanks!

Lack of documentation held up progress until I had to move onto other ASICs. If we end up doing S3 support I will see if any of that is applicable to the S1 and S2. Really just an issue of time and documentation.

I would love to see BFG in the S3 and other hardware from the start instead of old forked cgminer versions that rot on the vine. any idea how progress is on port to S1?

As you guys know I always encourage them to do so. I even poke them in my articles. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I would love to see BFG in the S3 and other hardware from the start instead of old forked cgminer versions that rot on the vine.

I think Bitmain is feeling a little Butt Hurt right now as the S3 begins to ship and didn't perform as expected in final assembly testing.

I love, except that I no longer leave my power hungry Windows PC up anymore than I have to. That's the plus with the Raspberry Pi 4.5 watts & the Beaglebone Black about 2.5 watts. They use very little wattage to run compared to my 500 watt PC.

Anyone having any luck getting Gridseeds and ZeusMiner/GAWminer running on the same rig/instance of BFGminer 4.4. So far I can get them both to Detect but BFGminer see the Fury as another Gridseed.
