why are you changing core speed and voltage in profiles 0 and 1??  this is probably why it's unstable.

...Isn't that what you are suppose to do? I don't really understand how the profiles work... Embarrassed
And would that affect the voltage problems?
Go back and re-read page 24.
Read it three times now. I'm assuming the point of the profiles is to downclock or rest while no work is being done?
So would something like this work?

Yeah, that looks good to me.  Aggression 14 does seem a bit high, tho.

overvolting in linux is more limited than windows.  probably just cannot be done.

however, by using correct settings you will probably find it isn't necessary.

11 is a reasonable aggression.  14 is pretty crazy.  plus you were messing with profiles 0 and 1.
I think you have much more stability now, without needing to screw around the voltage.

Oh yeah.  aticonfig will only overvolt so far in Linux.  1.163 is the max written in the card's BIOS and so it won't ever go higher than that (in Linux).  If you want to go higher (not sure you actually need to), then you need to flash the GPU which is a bit more work.

Some long term miners are actually undervolting now.  Getting a few more MH/s isn't usually worth the decreased life of your card from heat.

Well that sucks. Was hoping I could hit a crazy clock like 1040 and get 340MH/s if I up'd the voltage.

At current difficulty and exchange rate, you're talking about less than $1 per MH per year.

315-320 stable is easy.  how much time are you going to spend chasing that extra $20 per year you'd get with 340?  And how much mining time will you lose due to lockups in the pursuit?  In the end, will all the time spent overclocking actually end up costing you money?  It's a very real possibility.

Pretty good point. 320 instead of 340 isn't much of a difference. I have two cards, so I am missing out on a total 40 MH/s. Not a big deal. But when you have 20-30 cards, or a large mining farm, it's a fairly considerable amount of money you are missing out on.

Anyone got an idea as to why I can't connect to my BAMT machine via the web gui?
BAMT is on a PC in my shop, connecting over wifi through a range extender, with a static IP.
Everything seems to be working fine, except I can't get to it via the web gui (192.168.1.105) or remote desktop connection.
Both worked fine before I moved the machine out to the new location.
Could it be because the BAMT machine is on a different subnet than the rest of my network?
My primary network is 192.168.11.x, BAMT is on 192.168.1.x.
I can't move it back to the primary network, because the wifi won't quite reach that far without the repeater.
Thoughts?

I'm having an odd memory underclocking issue.

I have a 6990 where I have flashed the BIOS to allow for a 150MHz memory clock.  With cgminer 2.3.1-2 on Ubuntu x64 I can set the memory clocks to 150MHz and there are no issues.  Also can use it just fine with atitweak and phoenix miner.

With BAMT, if I put in the profile (P2) that memory should be 150MHz, it freaks out.  On one machine it just halts.  On another machine it ignores it and runs the memory at 1250MHz.  It also ran at 150Mhz for a little while then went to 1250MHz.

I suspect something is conflicting with something else within BAMT.  Any ideas?

You probably need a route to the 192.168.1.0 subnet on your main router to the AP. Do a tracert from a 192.168.11.0 client to 192.168.1.1 (if your AP is 192.168.1.1) to check.

I still have problems that bamt looses network connection after some time. The lease time is not over. Also i have set up the ip adress to the mac in the dhcp server.
Anyone an idea? I have tested many different router and problem is still there.

Different network card?

I just noticed I have the same problem... Network connection fails, but lease has not expired. When I attach a monitor and keyboard to my rigs, they are still up, but no connection...

I mean you could try using a different (PCI or PCIe) network card and see if it helps. If you have time you can try if the same problem happens on windows.

I fix that. Just make an own linux usb pen drive os with more recent software and now everything is working fine  Wink

If you didnt know that:
BAMT use a Kernel (all drivers for network, usb, cpu, everytghing) from 2009 and a networking software from 2010...

And did you integrate all BAMT tools? I like BAMT for the web interface...

Btw, which OS did you take?

I have no idea what that means! I'm using a Buffalo G router running DD-WRT as the extender, set as 192.168.1.1.
My primary router is a Buffalo N, also running DD-WRT, set as 192.168.11.1.
How would I go about creating a route between the routers?
How about the tracert?

How about the tracert?

Go to http://192.168.11.1 enter username and password.
Click Internet...then choose route
add route to 192.168.1.0 (and 255.255.255.0 if subnet mask is needed) and select 192.168.1.1 as the next hop and leave the metric as default.

Something like that depending on your router should give your clients access to/ from the remote subnet.

Tracert is a command line tool you can run from windows to see the path your request is making. Its done like this from the command line:

tracert 192.168.1.1

It will tell you all the hops from the client your are running to the destination and the response from the routers at each hop. You can use that to see where the path is ending or looping for debugging a routing issue.
