Topic: ANTMINER S3+ Discussion and Support Thread - page 410. (Read 710164 times)
Did anyone notice that their miner was already configured to mine at peculiar IP addresses or just antpool? My miner even had a name, suggesting that they were at least mining with 500 of these miners.
I have a bit of a problem. Hoping someone can help, I'm fine with computers but have no clue when it comes to network addresses etc.
To start with, I couldn't change the routers subnet so I went through a direct PC connection. Logged into the Ant fine & changed to DCHP. The Ant still had 192.168.1.99/24 as the IPv4 address at that time.
Here's where I went wrong perhaps, I had to connect to the internet again to get details for my pool (having to disconnect from the Ants), and since then I haven't been able to re-login to the Antminers. I've tried resetting them and trying to find them via the router, but they are not there. Anyone have any idea what went wrong/how I can login to them again pls?

Download Advanced IP Scanner and run that. It should find your Ant.
Good advice, but if you do find the IP address is still .1.99 and you can't log into it try a factory reset and plug directly in again. I had a similar problem with my S1 when I first got it. Played around with the settings and couldn't even connect directly to my lappy. I could see it using IP scanner, but couldn't get to the login page because of the different subnet.
I just changed the IP on my miner after to suit my routers subnet (.0.99)
Now doing a factory reset on an S3, I'm a B3'er so I have no idea if this is possible. On the S1 there was a tiny button on the logic board. I'd press it, then turn off at the power supply about 5 seconds after, power back up and it would be back to factory settings.
Hope that helps
I have just received my 3 Antminers and plugged them in, they have all powered up OK but my SKY Router wont detect them as a device, its like something is blocking them from being detected, I tried 192.168.1.99 but nothing happens and when I try 192.168.0.1 and ask my router to find the attached device it will not detect the Antminer 
can anyone help? is it my router that's the problem?
Your router is on a different network. 192.168.0.x is different then 192.168.1.x can anyone help? is it my router that's the problem?If you have a ehternet cable and a spare PC set the PC to a static IP in the 192.168.1.x range, connect to the antminer and change the IP info so it is on the 192.168.0.x network.
Hi thank you, I have a spare PC and Ethernet cable, sorry but how do I set the PC to a static IP in the 192.168.1.x range?
Control Panel > network and sharing > Change adaptor settings(Network connections) > doulbe click on our either net conneciton > Properties > Douple clikc on INternet Protocl Versign 4(TCP/IPv4) > Change to use the folloiwng address, enter 192.168.1.130.
You will lose internet connection but then type 192.168.1.99 into web page and program miner. ONce done re-open IPv4 Properites, put back to obtain IP addres automatically.
For your DNS server on the miner I highly recommend 8.8.8.8 it's googles.

What are everyones discarded shares figures like? Mine seem very high at least double the accepted shares. This is the same on 212.5 and 218.75.
Does not seem higher than S1 units. I kept some screen shots for comparison before I sold my S1 units just for this reason as I thought the same.

For those of you in B3, I ordered 7/6 and received my tracking info late last night. Hopefully they'll make it by the end of the week but I think that might be wishful thinking.

thanks for your reply. Funnily enough I had just run that software, but Ants are not found :/ Which is weird because the lights are happily flashing away & I'm sure they're mining to Bitmain's account no problem over my network somehow.
Use a cocktail stick or something and reset the devices. when they start up, try again. Best idea is to plug one in at a time and change the static ip from there. I would recommend not using DCHP.
unfortunately resetting them doesn't seem to make any difference. I did try them one at a time, but without knowing their current ip it's not really possible to change the static ip. The reason I did DCHP to start was because I was unable to change the router setting so only choice was to do direct connection. Maybe I'll try resetting them, powering them down overnight & try again in morning

The only issue with ordering directly from Bitmain is that they don't take PayPal, only Bec and I don't have any since I am new to this. Plus PayPal is very easy to use.
When I need Btc, I just go here and find some to buy:
https://localbitcoins.com/
I find paying a little extra for the Btc is cheaper than buying form someone with Paypal.
Check it out for your self and see which way would work best for you.
what about btc-e would that be cheaper?

What power supplies are you guys using to power your units?
I'm running two at stock speeds. Each one is on a corsair 500. They are running well, but it will be another day or two before I can check the power draw at the wall.
What are everyones discarded shares figures like? Mine seem very high at least double the accepted shares. This is the same on 212.5 and 218.75.
My discards across all 7 - S3's are 4-5 times that of accepted.
Is that normal for them to be so high?

Any chance you are you using Safari?
I think Safari was screwing with the changes being applied or something because I had issues setting a static IP... it wouldn't take hold and eventually after re-saving multiple times, I couldn't connect to it at all. Holding reset for 20+ seconds (no clue how long its supposed to take, I default to 20 seconds
) got it reset for me back to .99 The only issue with ordering directly from Bitmain is that they don't take PayPal, only Bec and I don't have any since I am new to this. Plus PayPal is very easy to use.

Question for you S3 owners.
What is considered the "overclocked" speeds that require 4 PCI-e connectors?
Many power supplies are a pain now a days, I don't know what to do if I plan on running 2 off one PSU because 8PCI-E cables is really not the norm.
On the Supernova 1300 G2 by EVGA it has 6 PCI-E 8pins, and not enough molex to do a molex to pci-e adaptor. Also curious what kind of PSU you all are using for these units.
Any advice will be great, thanks in advance!

the evga has six cables 4 single cables and 2 double cables……
you can use 2 single cables and a double cable filling all 4 jacks.
Been there done that.
As for overclock 225 237 250 = overclock.
I run 3 on the evga 1300G2, OC'ing does not affect my miners so I only need 2 pci-e per machine.
