Without adding an antennae whats the wifi range on an S3+. Just curious. Thanks!
Strato
7m and the second floor, with stone walls did not have any problem. Tested with 4x S3 with wifi. Without antenna? I find it hard to believe. |

But he asked range without antenna  . And about the range with antenna.It varies.I had 4 or 8 S1 located about 1 meter from router.They worked well sometimes 2 months,sometimes 2 days.I think the issue is something called "radio weather". I really know nothing about it,HAM-amateurs here should be able to explain it.All I know,is that it has nothing to do with weather as we know it. It has something to do with stratosphere,ionosphere or something.Ask wiser men more. |

You could get real complicated, but with S3 with no antenna it is not going far. Most likely you are in same room close to router to get a signal. |

I can tell it work with my TPLink without antenna at a few meters with no interference between.
But sometimes a miner will drop as if its having a problem connecting to wifi. So basically i have the bulk of my S1's right next to the router. (Because why not) and the others are using antennas and i can place them anywhere in my apartment.

Stay away from cheap PSU's. It just is not a good way to get started. Look for a decent one at least. That is pretty much a great example of a cheap psu that I personally would never use for mining. |

Oh really the guy I bought the S1 from said any 400w PSU would be ok with so I just went for a 500w to be safe. Feel a bit silly now... I thought with an S1 it would be ok seeing as it an older device... |

Would it not even work to get started with until I can afford to purchase something a bit better?

I would not touch that for mining at all. Look at what happens on failures of PSU's. I bet the wires are very very cheap. I would be surprised if they don't heat up and possibly melt. Don't order it. Trust us. |

He provided you exactly what you ordered. If you return he has to eat shipping most likely. I suggest eating the £12.95 and just not use the thing. |

I just got one of these and while it is quiet, it is still somewhat loud when trying to watch television. I want to drop the frequency down to 100M during the evening when I am in the room, then put it back to 225M (the default frequency). Basically, underclock when I am in the room and put to the normal speed when I go to bed/work.
Is there any danger of damaging the memory/storage with frequent writes to it? I don't imagine there is a hard drive inside the unit, so it must be writing the setting to some other form of non-volatile storage (with potentially limited writes).
Also, is it possible to automate this and have it follow a schedule?
