One of my 6 S3+ that I ordered a couple months ago stopped working, time for warranty service. Turns on but red light stays on, reset button doesn't work. Able to log in to interface.
Try to hook up debug port and see what's going on. It's simple tx-rx uart-ttl attached to console. tx-rx-gnd from top to eth port. I've managed to use this debug port to recover from failed wifi setup.

I think that I would like to set one of my S3 to solo mine just because.
What is the code or changes to the user interface is needed? When I try to enter my node IP and port, username, and password, all I get is 'dead'. I think that I need to add the "--btc-address [address]" option but can't via the normal S3 interface.
I'm running a full node with:
server=1
listen=1
rpcport=8332
rpcuser=user
rpcpassword=pass
rpcallowip=192.168.1.200

you could always save yourself the bother and use http://solo.ckpool.org?
Wow. Thanks. I never knew that this existed. Paying 0.5% is a tiny and very fair fee.

no worries, i have a couple of rigs in a unit with free electric so i figured, what the heck, why not
the problem is it could take 1000 years before you find a block.. and in that time you are losing money because 2 s3s still make 4.50$ per day in BTC.

Pool mining is just better due to faster payments (even if it is shared), also I can see my stats to be sure its working ok.
I full realize that I have very low chance of finding a block. I have a S3 going solo. The chances are 304,002,695 GH/s / 475 GH/s = ~640,000 of finding a block. Or about 1 in 315 per current difficulty.
Since I paid ~0.5 btc for the miner the USD cost is very low. That is actually just a night out at the casino

not s3's in the unit, old equipment. my S3's are at home mining on mmpool.org with my other efficient rigs

One of my 6 S3+ that I ordered a couple months ago stopped working, time for warranty service. Turns on but red light stays on, reset button doesn't work. Able to log in to interface.
Which firmware you are using? Have you updated it from OEM?
Try a firmware update if you are with default and try again.
Also check your internet connection to the miner.
Have you got access to your miner
consider making some tests like
check cables, internet connection, pool , hub

i had something similar to this, turned out to be the dns setting..
Only issue I had with my S3+ so far is one of the mining boards shuts off once in while, doing a power reset fixes it though
Though this issue seems to be disappearing the more I run it, at first it happened within a couple days, then it happened with a week, then it happened with 2 weeks, its like the miner is breaking in or something, seems to last longer before each time it happens.

Same with mine. I was able to get it to start working after powering down and then powering back up a couple of times

I am sure it has been asked and answered but this thread is so long hard to go through it all. What is a good quality fan to replace the two fans on the S3+? I would want ones that push a lot of air, run lower rpm and are much quieter. My S3+ is very loud when the fans kick on to higher speeds.
Use something betterhttp://www.watercoolinguk.co.uk/p/Noctua-NA-SRC7-Low-Noise-Adapter-for-4-pin-PWM-fan_46291.html
The S3 fans are rated at 1A (12W) max draw.
The best fans for my S3's are Corsair SP150 performance edition blowing in and Enermax UCMAA12A blowing out. The Enermax are not PWM but have a choice of three speed settings. I use the lowest 1000rpm setting. The S3 temps hover around 48-50C at ambient 22C and are a rock solid 440Gh at 218.75 Mhz, very quiet too. For lower temperatures I use Thermalright TY-143 both ends, not so quiet but easy to live with and the S3 temperature drops to 44-45C
Like many other mining enthusiasts no doubt, I have migrated from S1's to S3's and now have S1's gathering dust. So what to do with them? They are undervolted and lowered frequency using 150watts at 128Gh. Running costs are £0.50p per day each. They run almost silent. l intend using one per bedroom to warm the room up and maybe point them at a solo pool.. you never know your luck or l could stay with my usual pool and then the running costs drop to £0.10p per day.
As an aside I have 6 S3's all providing heating. It's winter here in England with outside temperatures ranging from 0 to 10C. One S3 is in the shed to keep the place from freezing, 3 in the lounge hidden in a corner.. the temperature there now never drops below 22C.. and 2 in my study which keeps it comfortably warm. Fan noise is not a problem having replaced all fans with much quieter ones.
Contact bitmain and ask them to sell you hash boards and controller from s3. I ordered 8 kit's with shipping to Moscow for 1240 usd. I think this is good upgrade for my s1's -)As an aside I have 6 S3's all providing heating. It's winter here in England with outside temperatures ranging from 0 to 10C.

What model fan did you use to replace the ones are your S3s?
I was not talking about any adapters. I was talking about replacing the fans with more efficient units. Anyone who would put something between the fan and unit is a dumbass.
works for me
S3 without adapters Temp 41 , 37
Fan1 2,100
Fan2 1,920
S3 with adapters Temp 41, 46
Fan1 1,320
Fan2 1,080
Your links are for the same fan. Just the performance edition.
