Having trouble setting up a static connection. My gateway is 192.168.0.1 but antminer is on 192.168.1.131 now that I changed it but it won't connect when I connect it to the router.  

I see that I needed to have router ip in the wan settings on the miner. I changed that bit is still not connecting.  

What am I missing?  Should I change the miner ip to 192.168.0.131 to being it on board with the router?

Your miner has to be on the same network . yes.

Changed it and now I can connect to the miner via the router and my pc. Its still not hashing though. I have all my pool info entered okay. I think my wan settings are off now. It's there anything else I would need to set? Otherwise I think I need the correct wan settings for a 192.168.0.1 setup.

I have it set to static
Ivp4 192.168.0.131 seems right now that I can connect to router and connect via pc
Ipv4 mask 255.255.255.0 seems right
Ipv4 gateway 192.168.0.1 I entered my routers default
Ipv4 broadcast not sure with this I have 192.168.1.1
Custom dns I had 192.168.1.1 and I'm about to try 8.8.8.8

I placed order in the first 5 minutes of S3 B1 release.
But still waiting for delivery. Look at the below image.
Its not a customs issue but due to the invoice/label/declaration from bitmaintech.

I would contact Bitmain that order deserves some compensation.

Yes it deserves compensation! Scheduled Delivery date put on UPS website at first was 19th.
Now the delivery date Scheduled Changed to 24-July-2014 if they could resolve invoice mismatch issue.
Bitmain can you do anything to get me out of this issue?

I will be shocked if Bitamin did anything.

I had an S1 go missing. UPS did their investigation, took about a week or more, issued a claim, basically saying it's lost and gone. Emails between me and Bitmain, back and forth, for about a week, give or take a few days, finally Bitmain decided to ship me a new one. I wanted a refund, as you can understand. No go. I got a replacement S1 and some coupons.

I was early batch 1 and I got mine last Thursday, that appears to be a mistake on sender's end. By the time you get B3 orders will probably be delivering. That appears it is a valid complaint.

If your S3 is not performing at 440 GHs, may be worth a shot to re-flash it.

Download the firmware here:

https://bitmaintech.com/files/download/antMiner_S320140711.bin

Dude way to go, so simple I should have thought of that instead of playing around with the different freq's. I had one struggling to keep 420 re-flashed and it is pulling between 450 and 460 on the 218 freq. Somebody buy this man a beer.

I am glad it worked for you. I love beer. Send me some.

Time to do my happy dance!!

My S3's from Batch 1 just arrived....now to go to work and get them up and running

Congrats now you will make 8usd per s3,money well spent huh?

That's $7.83 btw - .50 for electric = $7.33/Day (for now). I spent $430.55 (0.69225BTC after 7.7% refund, not received yet) for 1 S3 miner. Raw math puts ROI @ < 60Days, BUT.. we all know difficulty will have an affect. Averaging difficulty increases @ 10% stretches ROI (including electricity) to 83-85 Days, with a NET profit of .10BTC within 100 Days. .1 / .69225 = 14% PROFIT in 100 Days, anything out there doing that legit? Outside of cash cropping in a few states I think NOT!!

wow, interesting, this is exactly what I hit in 100d on S1 (on average). they must have some formula to predict this.
14% in 100 days is 60% a year. Don't tell me you hit this on the stock market on anything else.

I would say BitMain is well aware of our margins, I am tracking everything in a spreadsheet (IRS) for S1, S2, S3..  they all seem to be on that mark, S1's early appearance really gave it the edge. My first S1 I paid 1.9BTC ($1554.96) ran it for 180 days and then sold it on ebay, net was $634.61 / $1554.96 = 41% Net profit. My first S2 is @ day 129 and is currently $1012.95 in the black, other 2- S2's are 64 days in and @ 49% ROI. SP10's are 63 days in and @ 37% ROI ;(

Just like the market you have to hedge your bets, keep your eye on the future offerings, and get IT while you can! Basically I have watched this grow from a $1500 hobby into a 30K small business. Bitmain is helping me keep that going by NOT raping every nickel of value out of their offerings.

I will grant you too many more 20% jumps and that whole theory goes out the door, but even if it went 365 to make 14% that is better than ANYWHERE for a < $500 in.

yep, but the OP said that cleaning paste improved his machine. If what you are saying is 100% correct about swimming in thermal paste not causing any problems, then why his S3 was improved by removing excess and reapplying some? I just want to understand and from what I heard here, it seems that paste should be on the top of the chip in S3.

should be on top of any chip

I just cleaned the excess off one board on a massively under performing s3 to see if it made a difference. nope

Need some setup help with networking.

My router is on 192.168.0 instead of the .1

I have an s1 setup on the wifi running fine, but when I try to connect the s3 to the router then try to connect to it with my laptop it won't connect. What should I do?

Easy thing would be to set your laptop ip address to 192.168.1.222 and then connect it directly to the S3.

Agree that will do it  Smiley

Looks like 1 of 3 is a winner:


Just play with each setting and leave it for a few hours these S3s take a while to even out.

you have 25 times more discarded shares than accepted. I am not sure that it means anything, though.

Can someone clarify if that means anything? That's the case for me as well and I'm not even running it overclocked.

Thanks for the reply.  Did that and I'm connected now.  How do I set it up so I can connect it to the modem and mine?

I'm connect via laptop right now but it isn't mining.  What else needs to be set?
