Yes, many users had this same problem. Only use 8.8.8.8 or 8.8.4.4 The 4.2.2.2 is OK also. (we get this question ever 20 post or so, don't get cute and use OPEN DNS or anything like that)

If you make ANY changes to IP, PHYSICALL REBOOT THE MINER. Make sure your Gateway is not your IP, Gateway is your router. If you use your own IP as the gateway your charts will be blank.

ALSO, fill in all 3 failovers, even if its the same information in all 3, do not leave any blank unless you want to put my wallet address in instead

i have not been using AS5 due it being capacitance conductive ..
that is the reason i been using the gc-extreme because it is neither electrical conductive nor capacitive conductive ..
gc-extreme is carbon-based ~8.5W/m-K i think is better for our application around such small asic chips ..
good to see the drops in temps though which is what we hope to see changing the thermal paste ..

Thanks for your help, already tried a reboot and replugged all the PCIE power cables, I will certainly follow your suggestion and check the board after leaving the S3 to run for a couple of hours. At first, I thought to myself "oh wow, 32 ASIC chips means I get double the output" LOL 

Try using a static ip and for DNS use Google's DNS servers. 8.8.8.8 and  8.8.4.4 as previous poster said this took care of similar problems.

Look back on page 171, this might help you out.

I use a paperclip now, I use a very thick one just in case.

Thank for your reply, but im 100% sure i have it setup properly. I didnt changed router, provider
or anything else. So if i compare default gateway with my router (ipconfig), its the same as always:
192.168.0.1. For beeing really sure about this settings, I tried also use DHCP and it assigned to
miners the same settings. Also there shouldnt be any relation between "miner status" stats and
DNS. As i remember, if i even dont have miners connected to the internet, tab "miner status" was
normally visible. Or am I wrong with my thoughts?

Someone else reported something very like this many pages back.  Not sure if they ever got it sorted.  Did you try flashing firmware?

Others with a similar experience found that it was DNS related.

First time I ever heard of this one. That chain 2 board sounds more like it's from an S1.
I would first try a reboot and if that doesn't help maybe you should pull the cover and check that board.
If both boards look the same you could try re-seating all of your cables or just make sure they're plugged in all the way.

That's an expensive paper clip and you need to buy 500 at a time.

Did you see this? Thinking about buying this but not right now. Min of 500.

Hello guys! Im trying to solve my issue with my 4x Antminer S3. Yesterday happened anomalous thing during midnight.
I woke up and the miners werent mining at all. I was mining 2 weeks without any problem with S3 (and 4 months in all),
everything was stable and running well. Since now... I will describe my setup deeply. First thing has to be mentioned,
I supply each couple of miners on separate PSUs (750W HX and CX corsair). So I can prove that my PSUs are working properly.
I also changed the cable, tried to reset my router, tried to upgrade FW on miners, tried to factory reset, tried DHCP
(instead of static IP as I used to have), tried another circuit, tried to call my internet provider. And everything looks be fine.
But still I cant find out, where is the problem. It really happened spontaneous without any intervention from my or somebody
else side. All my miners look running well, LED is turn on, I have also connection to WebGUI, I can everything set, but I dont
see any info in tab "miner status" also miners dont consume full power because they are not mining. Im really pissed off
with this situation, i tried to check and test almost everything I imagine, but I dont know what to do now.
Please guys, advice me something what I maybe forgot or gimme the point of what could happened. I will donate the one
who will help me with this! Thank you for any of yours ideas.

Any way we can get you to update these kinds of things in a central location?  Like, I don't know, the "News" section of www.bitmaintech.com?

Would be awesome.

Hey Everybody,

So I just setup my newly received S3s from Batch 4. All work well except for this one particular S3 which keeps on showing hash rate of ~338gh/s. On further inspection from the Miner Status page, I found that Chain #2 is showing ASIC Status of "-o-o-o-o -o-o-o-o -o-o-o-o -ooo-o-o" & ASIC # as "32" which is different from all my other miners showing "oooooooo oooooooo" and "16" respectively.

Any idea what is wrong? Everything is running on stock, connecting 2 S3s to a Cooler Master V1200 Platinum (will eventually run 3 on this later all on stock but 2 for now)

Thanks Duce and philipma1957, clocking down to 212.5 works great.  Hashing at 410 atm but at least its stable and doesn't end up at 380-390Ghs!

Do you think it would be worth engaging Bitmain about this?  Would really like that extra 30Ghs!

I missed that post; thanks.

You are not alone.  I didn't receive B2 too

Now status is 'shipped' also at Bitmain.

Just received an email from bitmain: order shipped. nice! batch 4
