Pool page logins disabled...is someone not playing nice again?

Yeah a botnet password guesser.
I'll put it back on again soon.

It got to 'al...' trying random passwords on a large alphabetised random account name list

Good job Kano, you don't have to rush to bring it back up.  It's great knowing you are on top of things!

I hope that is the end of the monster red blocks for a while!

Thanks to bitcoinmaster1 for hitting his 4th Kano block!

I used a RPi3B of my own, with a reflashed micro-SD with the 721 firmware (Nov 21), and find that my A7 won't talk to the network for reasons I simply can't figure out. I can "see" it on the router (DHCP) but it isn't actually connected (?!). I therefore can't get to the GUI to set it up to mine, etc. Anyone else had this happen yet?

I opened a ticket and expect they'll get back to me presently, so please ignore if appropriate. Just frustrated. It's the unlabeled one with the MAC ending in E6.

I feel jelly.

Freaking Fedex has my shipment since Wednesday and did not clear it yet.

Furthermore, I have to pay $143 since the COO is not stamped.

Contacted Canaan to send me a stamped COO to get my $143 back.

Will receive the miners on Saturday...what a bum.

A repeat of my A7 posts since people seem to be getting them now:

So ... I have an A7 mining on the pool right now
I'll add a menu a bit later so people can see my workers - if anyone is interested.
I'll post here when it's done.

Miner is actually no where near as loud as I expected - and it's 26C here
(and I have it in the laundry which is about 28C after running the dryer an hour ago)
It's hopping around 2300 to 2500 RPM for me - in the middle to low 60's dBA (i.e. certainly under 70 dBA)
It's temperature says it's 31C

Need to let it run for an hour or so to get a reasonable hash rate estimate.

For anyone who uses the default RPi image (as of today) on canaan.io - it's setup for static IP 192.168.0.100
So you may have to login to that and switch it to DHCP if you have more than one - or if you have a lot, set that in the image.

Very cool Kano!  I can't wait to see what you you get with your new toy!

OK it's up and working.
Everyone logged in now has 2 extra options in the 'Workers' menu:
K.Workers and K.Graph - that shows my data below the menu (still your data above top right)

Edit: oh I'll take it down to the garage at some point later and thus it will have a short outage - but the shift will show that after I do it - it seems they start a little slower then climb up for an hour or so to get the speed right.

Edit2: though it's clear from the Workers page, you can separate out the A6s and A7s on my graph by using at the top "all" ".A6*" and ".A7*" and pressing "Update" - though it will forget your settings if you already had some for your workers.

Edit3: moved - so it was off for a bit over half an hour.

Anyone who gets an A7, I would suggest a change on the advanced web configuration page:
More Options: --avalon7-nonce-mask 26
It should speed up the hash rate ramp up.

... and 2 more changes for anyone who gets an A7 and mines here

In /etc/crontabs/root
Change the '5' to '2'
i.e. change it to:

Code:

*/2 * * * * /usr/bin/cgminer-monitor

and change /usr/bin/cgminer-monitor to check the last share, not the last work:
i.e. change line 14 from:

Code:

B=`cgminer-api devs | grep "^   \[Last Valid Work\]"`

to

Code:

B=`cgminer-api devs | grep "^   \[Last Share Time\]"`

Basically what this does is if the last share found is ever more than a minute ago, it will restart cgminer.
As I've mentioned before that's ever so unlikely here on a single miner.
But also I've found during the A7 startup it would often have to restart cgminer - and the 5->2 change speeds that up.

Not too bad at all. Especially with the rise in coin price if it holds (and continues higher). I had read somewhere that coin prices have traditionally risen during the winter months. I just got up and I'm drinking coffee, so no research for me this morning. Maybe after work!

Let's get back to cracking some of these December blocks. I'm sick and tired of red!!! 

Mine on!!

Good start to the day!! Let's grab 2 or 3 more and surpass our expected average. Sounds like a good idea to me!

Hi Guys,

You're welcome here, raidbak...as is your hash, of course.    Peace be with you...with us all, for that matter.

EDIT: SOOOoooo glad the "problem" with the A7 was simply my not noticing the static IP. I know I saw that somewhere earlier, but had completely forgotten. The new modem from Oceanic is a nice one (and allows me to run a full node again), but who'd'a thunk I'd be running a subnet on it...oh, well...another reason to mine here. Folks can point out a simple mistake without making you feel like a nimrod.

I was curious to try p2pool, did you have a bad experience?

Not really, but i ran out of patience waiting for a block 

It is not the easiest to setup but once you get it working its pretty cool and feel like a big achievement!!. Only reason for moving away from it is not much information out there on how to tune it.
