So far I can say with certainty 1 of my boards is toast, dosnt work, starts off at 60gh/s and drops to 0. got 4 others that don't work well.

You can try to set all chip speed to 55 and turn autotune off. Let it run for few hours and check results. If you have multimeter check what  voltage you are runing on the 60->0 GH board.

Cheers, im gonna run it on autotune for the night. Then tomorrow will try your idea.

at the moment there seem to be heavy ddos attacks on major pools, this could also lead to these effects.

You probably already know this, anyway, put worst performing boards as last board of each bus.

You have four buses, marked A-D on your m-board.

Got mine today, been pulling my hair out all day trying to get all 16 boards to hash right. 3 of them refuse to hash over 16-17gh/s no matter what order I place them in.

They should be marked in what slot they should be placed, did you take care of that?

I ordered a starter kit and 13 hashing boards and then a little bit later 2 more hashing boards giving me a full kit. However they were not marked for me, only 2 of the boards where marked.

oh, afaik only the full kits where marked. I could be the case that you are out of luck then for the moment. If you happen to live in the south of Germany, I could lend you a different M-Board to try. You should probably contact BSFB Support.

Dig your freedom
All 600's have been completed and some of the 700's also. We'll be shipping them out tomorrow. It's not late to get UPS express upgrade if you want yours by friday Wink
I did not see any speedup if I pay extra for UPS express. Unfortunately order are proceeded in order of submitting, no matter you have full set or only few PCB.
Patience, something that we learn in this business :p

Well, that doesnt help when my order is outside the 600s and 700s cos I did add/pay for the express shipping lol

Hopefully you will get to mine before my birthday

Meanwhile packaging is going really well, and we'll have a big shipment going out tomorrow!

Where will that put you up to (roughly) in the orders?

I have been running bfgminer on my pi in place of chainminer and have been connected to p2pool for the last day with no issues.

if somebody wants to try p2pool, you can use any publicly available, mine is here : http://aamarket.eu:9332 - not tested with bitfury yet, but worked with cgminer and bfgminer with GPU using either getwork or stratum before.
Use your btc addr as a name. I will be glad to assist.

Order 220 just received. The august delivery promise was kept, but it was a close call. Got a starter kit with two H-boards, which greatly overdelivers the promised hashrate. The unit is hashing at around 40GH/s (+-3GH/s). Setup was really easy with the simple web interface, I just input my pools there and restarted the miner.

I'd like to invite everyone who is going to receive a unit to use a small pool and/or p2pool if the miner inside the unit can work with it.

There are several small pools, pools with less than 50 TH/s of capacity, which should/need to grow to be able to balance the one or two mega-pools available.

This is for the health of the bitcoin network, most of all, and given that BitFury is delivering several TH/s of hashing power this is a good moment for this call to arms Smiley

Could someone please provide step-by-step instructions on how to configure chainminer to run as a p2pool configuration??  I'm surprised almost nobody has documented that well enough on what needs to be done the rPi side.

I think I'm somewhat clear (although not 100% sure) on what software/steps that needs to run on my PC/host but I read somewhere that some chainminer files need to be updated on the rPi side.  I'd highly appreciate it.

Sadly it does not work with p2pool because slush's stratum proxy does not and chainminer has no stratum support.

So in the end, under bitfury we are trapped at the mercy of countless DDoS attacks. I have, and I expect many others too, lost LOTS of coins due to this severe limitation that leaves us absolutely defenseless. :-/

Is there any documentation, however limited or partially tested, on how to compile and run bfgminer or cgminer for bitfury for p2pool???
This is getting really painful.

I haven't tried this but what is stopping you from running a p2pool node on a PC on your LAN and setting it's IP as the getwork address in jobconnect.cpp and recompiling?

I did not try recompiling jobconnect to point it to p2pool, but to avoid DDoS the first thing to do is to stop using BTCGuild and to start spreading your hashing power to more pools choosing smaller pools first.
