Thanks the question!

Hub is here. Yesterday I've restarted it and working since then.

Now i won't touch until it stops, so I can post what dmesg shows, and I'll make the hub then.

You had a good carma, the miner is afraid.. Smiley
It will not stop Wink
Ops i have not said it Lips sealed
That is how tplink works when done things are done right Wink Non stop since last cgminer upgrade

I don't like temp solutions.

I'll just go, get a hub and do what you said. I don't want to more clever than everbody.....
Super,
but meanwhile if same happens again just ssh to router and post here the output of dmesg.
Will you?
10X

Don't laugh on me but what is dmesg?
I would't. There is nothing to be ashamed of..dude.
dmesg shows some kernel messages related to all of the above
You know how to ssh to tplink right?
when you ssh to the the tplink just type dmesg
and post that here



Ok I'll do it when it stops. But I'll go and get a usb hub.

Thanks!
Is all good dude?
Have you plugged the hub in between?

Any ideas why keeps shut down every 5 hours?
What shuts down
Some more info dude os product software which you are using?

Yeah sure! Sorry I was in hurry just dropped in the question.

So it's a Hex8A1 running directly from a TP-Link.

In the first few days it was runing fine, but the last 3 deays it keeps shuting down about every 5 hours and I have to switch it down and up to get it runing.

The boards stops working and I got this message from api log:

[Firmware Version] => 20140329
cgminer: 4_1_0_5ed45a0
Socket connect failed: Connection refused

Edit: Just ssh-d in. Cgminer starts but don't recognize the board.

Lsusb?
Try setting default to 8
Directly into tplink?

Use hub in between for sure
dmesg will show you a lot of usb errors. Tplink does not like slow usb devices Cry
Just put a usb hub in between that is all
You can do folowing
1. Throw away tplink power adaprter
2. Buy usb 2.0 powered hub
3. Throw away usb hub power adapter
4. Rib of the power jack of hub and connect it to your psu 5V - take power for the hub from PSU which you are using to power the miner
5. Connect both usb cables of tplink into that hub power and data
6. Plug in there your hex board
7. Forget  about issues;)


Strange but I'll give it a try!

Thanks Loshia!
It is well known atheros chipset USB bug dude Wink When it happens you are lost. Only reboot can solve the situation, because usb is fucked up completely
Trust me...
And make sure you are using single ground from your PSU only. That is the key Wink
There is a slight chance your usb cable to be faulty also....

PS: as temporary solution you can
vi /usr/bin/cgminer-monitor.sh

find at the bottom something like:

    echo "`date`: cgminer hang starting" >> /tmp/monitor.log
    mv /tmp/cm_old.log /tmp/cm.log                          
    exit 0;    

change it to

    echo "`date`: cgminer hang starting" >> /tmp/monitor.log
    mv /tmp/cm_old.log /tmp/cm.log
    reboot                          
    exit 0;    

And make sure cron is running

But this is temp solution only

My Hex16a1's are turning into zombi's again with this update. First 2 days everything was fine, now even after rebooting my TpLink I have to disconnect some usb cables and reconnect them, so I guess I'm going to downgrade my Hex16a1 TpLink 2 versions again...

How hot are your devices? I feel like they are too hot. When I press my finger on the hottest part of the cooler, I cannot hold it for longer than ~15-20 seconds.

  Same here, about 10 seconds.  I think that is normal. If you put your finger on the hotest part of a cpu, you get burned instantly.

just measured the power draw at the wall (240V) for 4 x Technobit HEX8A1 - 260GHs Coincraft A1 units:


More pictures can be found here: http://imgur.com/a/mRbMZ#4w7cdKp

1730W = ~1000GHs
1730W / 4 = ~433W each (250GHs)

Code:
0: HEX8 0       : 270 1000/1009mV         | 777.0G / 262.8Gh/s
 1: HEX8 1       : 270 1000/1006mV         | 74.51G / 262.9Gh/s
 2: HEX8 2       : 270 1000/1006mV         | 354.7G / 255.4Gh/s
 3: HEX8 3       : 270 1000/ 999mV         | 266.6G / 275.5Gh/s

Happy mining Smiley

There are slight difference in a way how latest cgminer 0_3_2 shows your hash rate and hw error rate. The latest version is more accurate. So compare apples to apples.

Does this version have any influence/improvements for Hex8A1? Mine is running stable now with almost no hw errors, so I'm a bit hesitant to change a running system.
So then just stick to old version Wink
Yes it has some improvements especially if you are mining at higher difficulty
Set-dif-to-one 0
Probably pool rejects should be lower also
But as I said you can get slightly different numbers for GH and hw errors
At the end when you do compare the performance always watch your pool stats Wink
