Hi all I'm a beginner to the mining setup and I have two Antminer S1's. I have all the hardware setup correctly but am having trouble starting the mining process. The only way I can get to the antminer setup page is to connect the miner via ethernet directly to my laptop. I don't know if I have correctly connected it to the internet. I setup my pool setting as instructed by the pool and after saving and applying my updated pool settings, I disconnect the ethernet cord from my laptop and plug it directly into the ethernet port I have at home.
The miners are not mining since from my mining pool page, the pool is not noticing any hashing from my miners. Does anyone have any suggestions how to setup these miners for a newbie? I have looked through various tutorials online and none of them were able to set them up. Also, how do I know if the miners are mining without refering to the mining pool page?
Thank you!
