Network scan to discover new miners no longer works since 11.5.2.

Multiple such errors in log:

Thanks for your report. Please upgrade to v11.5.3 that should resolve this issue.

So, uh bud, I just updated to the newest version and for some reason the 'default ASIC Web/API username/pass' that are setup under the miner settings literally do not work for miners anymore. Luckily I was around and caught it right as curtail came through.

None of my miners shut off, still going to get a higher power bill because of this. I had to manually set credentials for all the miners with a bulk edit. Even reset the credentials in the boxes to see if it would fix it and it does not. If you toggle manual credentials off and on, it seems to work momentarily then breaks again.

It seems to effect Generic/Antminer firmware. Braiins was unaffected.

Thanks for your report. Were all the miners Bitmain stock firmware or did any of them run Vnish-based firmware?

Could you please send me the API report (toolbar: Tools -> API Report) for one of these miners (via PM or mail) and I can check if Awesome Miner doesn't detect the miner type correctly - and as a result doesn't handle the default password as it should.

[bensam1231]

Vnish exclusively. Braiins was unaffected best I can tell. Nailing down the exact criteria seems to be difficult to duplicate, because sometimes it works, but 99% of the time it does not. That's what makes it weirder. Fiddling with the custom username/pass sometimes will make the default one start working.

DM sent.

Awesome Miner version 11.5.4

 ASIC mining
  - Automatic discovery with MAC address identification enable will no longer add ASIC miners where the MAC address isn't available
  - New state Error for ASIC miners, indicating that the ASIC miner is reporting it's in an error state
  - Indicate if the miner is in auto tuning state in the status column of the miner list
  - Display ASIC miner error in the Summary panel of the selected miner
  - Added Error as a new column in the miner list, indicating the error reason reported by an ASIC miner
 Configuration
  - Configuration of default password for Antminers running the Awesome Miner Antminer firmware (or generic Vnish firmware) in the Options dialog, Mining Settings section
  - Configuration of monitoring with MAC address validation configurable in the Options dialog, Mining Settings section. When enabled, no monitoring details of an ASIC miner will be displayed in case the MAC address of the External Miner isn't matching the MAC address reported by the ASIC miner.
 Mining software
  - BzMiner 24.0.2
  - SrbMiner-Multi 3.3.0

Hey Patrike a couple improvements that I think AM could use.

In light of what just happened with me after a update, perhaps add some sort of warning in one of the columns if a miner can't be controlled. So if it's in read only, this would make it easy to tell of pause/resume works. Could even add it in the information column as something you can add. This would allow us to make rules to pop warnings and such.

I am finding the groups function that was added awhile ago to be invaluable as well as highlighting miners.

Specifically with the groups tab, could we get functionality enhanced? Right now it displays minimal information, but if you have 'Long term mining history' on which allows you to see stats on miners over time, could we get combined stats for the groups tab for miners in each group? Such as average hashrate, average temperature, power usage, efficiency, and daily temperature over time on a graph of all the miners averaged in the group.

On each group it would be nice to see average efficiency as well.
