No faster but hopefully more consistently, so better average Ghs... Cheesy

which is exactly what makes S3 Still useful Smiley .

I wish he would come out with his version for the S5 like he said he was so many moons back.
Yet to appear that i know of .

Well, that was painless, and well worth the effort.

Thank you very much kano, and since both the S3+ are on your pool, I hope we'll benefit from the upgrade ;p


Remember, they won't run faster just better with his update .!!!!!

I'm looking how to configure your computer to connect via a TCP / UDP port. But configure the firewall, and router with the same ports and addresses and ports remain blocked.

If do you have any information for configuration for the firewall o network.

Any suggestions accepted.

confused.. you shouldnt need to change anything on your network.. the port is 4028

if you mean from outside your network, then i wouldnt its risky.. id use teamviewer to control the miners from the internet.


Just to make sure I'm understanding right are you talking about accessing from outside or inside network? "But configure the firewall, and router with the same ports and addresses and ports remain blocked." That line has me confused to a point.

The thought of someone being able to get to my miner via outside my network does not excite me at all if that is what you mean.  There are bot's that crawl the internet all day logging devices.    I don't see a big advantage of being able to  configure via TCP/UDP port from outside vs using something like teamviewer that is already on your network and does not open device up to the world.

I had a power outage earlier and after restarting both, they seem to hash fine but report 0 in best share... (well 1 does reports 9373, but the other 0)

It is a known bug with the S3, suggest updating to Kano's S3 cgminer release and it fixes that and other issues.

Ah well, after 50mn they both report best shares.
All is fine, I'm just surprised it took that long compared to my other miners...

Hello

I have a couple of S3+ and they've been running for a couple of month without problem.

I had a power outage earlier and after restarting both, they seem to hash fine but report 0 in best share... (well 1 does reports 9373, but the other 0)

Pool alive
638 accepted shares
Diff1# 178,352
DiffA# 163,328

Is there any way I can access the internal cgminer log using putty ?

Or should I just wait, they've been up 30mn.
But my U3 and compac sticks report their best share immediatly...

there is one i reread what you asked . but it's not supported anymore, your on your own setting it up .

That's here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/coiniumserv-open-source-high-performance-pooled-mining-server-software-604476

Miniera does store a history but i don't think it does how you want.

there is a S3 firmware i could never figure out how to loud in my S3 that gives  some of what you want  by Smit1237.

I use the S5 version.

Thank you Smiley

basically minera shows me real time what my S3+ do.


and shows that for my USB miners:



This is what I'd like to have for my S3+

i really wish they would update minera for showing the graphs for ALL your miners.. even remote ones..

something like this



that's S5 firmware i use by Smit1237

there is S3 version here that does the same as the S5 version. it does some of what you want.

http://smit1237.asuscomm.com:8080/nicehash/

but the ftp is down atm but does come up for days at a time then down again, it may be a home server of some kind. or even be my isp being my isp .


 i had it loaded in my s3 one time it worked but didn't.

minerlink from antminer would do it all, if they ever being it online.

hello,

is there a 3rd party tool that can provide graph of the S3/S3+ behavior ? (i've not found any in my search)

i can see what my S3's are doing from CKpool monitor page, but as hashrate seems to fluctuate a lot, I'd like to see it locally.

I'm using cryptoglance (but it only provides numbers) as M's miner monitor and Minera can do for network miners.
For the 3 above, there's no history, just real time.

I'm really interested to see how hashrate and share submission evolve over time.

Has anyone used the balance option in the miner configuration menu? If so how have you found it on the pool side?

there is a way to mine the way you want to between pool but you will need either a pi type Pc , or laptop or PC  that is running a linux type operating system ;

and follow this https://github.com/Stratehm/stratum-proxy  

that tells you how to set it up

and this tells you how to set up the pool switching strategy it uses

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12489739


I would ask kano also if his pool allows proxy's,i have ckpool set on my proxy list but that's encase one of my other pools goes down it will kick in.so my s5 won't burn up sense i don't use the July firmware and it's overclocked to 1.2 th .

I use slashes pool and  Eligius Pool Statistics ,mainly, they both can use proxy pool switching but don't on slashes it can be unprofitably or take forever to get anything because of how the pay system works.


Slushes is the very first btc mining pool, it started pool mining.

https://mining.bitcoin.cz/home/

The S3 balance option doesn't work that great, it's like others said depends on the pool.
