S2 problems

[Grayson5]

Hi,

I have 3 S2's and they all started having the same problem today.  I had to replace my router and when I installed the new one none of my S2's will connect.  They all boot and the LCD screen displays their internet address, but they never appear on my network.  The blue light on the controller board is on - I've had to reflash one of them before - but when that happened the S2 never even booted up all the way.

I now the cable and internet connection work because I can hook my laptop up to the same connection and can access the internet.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Are you using static IP address or DHCP on your miners? Is your new router setup the same as the old?

I am sure we can help you, just need more info.

might be a DNS issue, set the miners DNS to 8.8.8.8

I can't even access the miner via my network.  2 of them were set to static IP's and the 3rd one to dynamic.  Even though the IP address show up on the LCD, they don't appear on my network when I display attached devices.  If I try to go to the IP address via my browser it doesn't find the miners.

Is there another way to connect?  Seems like the system won't recognize the network.

Configure your router to match the miners subnet.

Example: if your miner is at 192.168.1.100, configure your router to use 192.168.1.1 as a gateway address. If it is 192.168.0.100, then router should be 192.168.0.1

If you could provide with your specific IPs, we'll do better

The issue is I can't get to the miner settings.  After the miner boots I can't log into it.  The LCD screen shows the IP address - 192.168.1.99 - but it never appears on my network and the lights on the ethernet port never light up.

Is there another way to get to the miner settings?  Are they on the SD card that I can access?

[Grayson5]

Also, the lights on the ethernet port never light up.  Is there a way to check if the port is active or getting power?

Do you have more than one showing the same IP address of 192.168.1.99? Are they both on at the same time??

What are the IPs of your router and your computer? I have asked you in the previous post, to provide us with detailed info.

Configure your router to match the miners subnet.

Example: if your miner is at 192.168.1.100, configure your router to use 192.168.1.1 as a gateway address. If it is 192.168.0.100, then router should be 192.168.0.1

is there a factory reset button like on s1s???

[Grayson5]

When I ipconfig from CMD I get the following:

IP: 192.168.1.1
IP Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: is blank

when I log onto the router I see the following settings

IP adress: 192.168.1.1
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

Although there is one screen where the subnet mask is 255.255.240.0

right now it is set to dynamically get the IP info from the ISP.

should I change anything?

Try downloading and running this free software. Its safe I use it all the time.

http://Advanced-Ip-Scanner.com

Then run it and see if you can see every IP on your network

[rhj12345]

Although there is one screen where the subnet mask is 255.255.240.0

FYI - Your subnet on all your devices should be the same.

I can see all attached devices and their IP's through my router.  5 of my 6 S1's are working, but the 6th one has the same problem as the S2's.  My PC that is hardwired to the router is 192.168.1.10.

I can see all my PC, IP camera's and the S1's via my router.  It's not that I can't find the IP address of the S2's, its that they are not connecting to the network.

the default gateway is 192.168.1.1  NOT blank as I indicated below....sorry about that.

I just changed the setting on my router to a static IP and a subnet of 255.255.255.0 and still the same issue

Could you please just copy paste whatever "ipconfig /all" outputs for you? Also a screenshot from your routers LAN config page.

What you post does not make any sense. You can't have your PC and your router on the same address.

reset router, reset s2. start from there if its really giving you that many problems

Not sure how to insert a graphic here......for the LAN screen shot.

The values on the page are the same as the ones above.
