I recently bought an Antminer S1 but it has a poor wifi signal even with an antenna attached.

It's exceptionally poor wifi because I have another Antminer directly beside it and that Antminer receives an adequate signal

Is this issue common?  Is there a fix?
Out of the last eight S1's that I received, two of them can see the wifi but cannot connect once they are setup.  I have a total of ten on wifi at the moment, the rest are using TP ethernet.  I have tried reflashing the firmware, but the wifi on those two machines just wont work.

Why dont you switch the ones on Ethernet with the ones that wont work on wifi and put the old ethernet ones on wi fi. Unless you really want to go through rma.

Just received a pair of S1's with super-fast delivery from Bitmain.  Ordered on the evening of 26 of May, and they arrived mid-day today (29 May). UPS seems to be so much better in delivery to Australia than the DHL/Aust post combination. Both Ants working without any drama.  They had some 'spare' thermal paste and a few screws between the ASIC boards and the heatsinks could be a bit tighter, but these are minor issues.  Thanks again Bitmain!

Cheers

Bitmain either need to issue a decent price-drop on the S1 (price rise in BTC has meant they're actually more expensive) and/or issue more coupons!

I've spent over £35k with Bitmain and expect something back in return!

Alright, I got a question that I hope someone can answer.  I've bought a few different miners now and I have always messed up on the mining calculations.  Even the online calculators seem to be way off from my experience using them.

I can get one of these off of Craigslist for $450 Canadian, and it comes with a power supply.

The power supply on it's own is running about $120 Canadian, so that makes the miner $330.

I'm pretty sure the better option is just to spend the $450 on coin, but I like to see the results every day when I log in, LOL! I also like the fact that I'm mining which helps support bitcoin as a whole.

Will I make anything close to what I spend on this?  I'm not all that concerned about power costs being part of the equation.

Calculators will say that, but you can break-even if you act wisely.

Blatant plug but if anyone in the UK is after S1's I'm selling some of mine as I need to make room for new equipment.

"New" Antminers have arrived.

But these are not new units... Definate signs of use for a prolonged period. Bitmain are you selling us used stock here?

Hey guys.  I was in the middle of ordering 4x S1s when I realized I had to fund my btc wallet a little.  When I went back, my coupons had expired.  So....I'm pan handling for coupons!  Any coupons welcome for S1s, as all 11 that I had remaining expired today.  I intend to use them and not resell them.  Thank you in advance for your generosity.

By the way, I have something like 20 S2 coupons that expire in the next 1 week if anyone is look for those let me know.

Cheers.

I would give away my coupons for free, but I'm afraid there are some people out there asking for free ones that turn around and sell them to someone else trying to make an easy buck.

If they still haven't expired, I'm looking for 4 S1 coupons.  Placing an order in a couple hours. Not for resell. Smiley

It seems my S1 coupons have expired today. Thought they were the 30th. Sorry.

I have 27 S1 coupons that are about to expire on the 29th. Send me a PM with your bitmain userid, let me know how many you need, and they are yours for free.

And they're gone! That was fast.

Well at .419 (x2) I can't buy but at .32 I'd take at least six more right now.

I guess if sales slow BITMAIN will do whatever makes the most sense for them.  

We should all also remember they have been the best H/W seller by a wide margin.  No pre-order nonsense.  No missed dates...etc.


At that price, I will get 10. Shocked

I have been planning on buying two more this week. I just can't justify it even with the coupons.  Places selling for FIAT are even more after shipping, but you can get one.
