What do you need for registering in my ups my choice?  And where is the tracking number on the order ?

You need an eligible address. Turns out my address is eligible. I just checked. It allows you to see shipments en route to your address. I can see my Amazon packages but not anything from China so far.

I was one of the first ones to purchase as well.

I just downloaded the UPS Mobile app. Apparently I'll get a notification once a shipment is processed for my address.

Can you guys elaborate? Did you get a shipping email? Did you see at tracking number on the website?
It appears that people who are signed up for UPS My Choice can see that their packages are en route.  Unfortunately, I cannot sign up as my address is listed as a commercial address, so I have to wait until Bitmain updates the website (or I get an email from them) to have any tracking info.  My order was placed for batch 1 at 14:01:44 (yes, that's 1 minute and 44 seconds after orders were opened)... so I'm hopeful that I'm one of the folks included in this batch of shipments.

EDIT: Just checked my UPS MyChoice. I cannot see the shipment, I can see my Amazon shipments without a problem, though. I am guessing mine isn't shipped yet despite me being one of the first ones to purchase.

If they are really shipping batch 1, that's exciting because it means they're keeping to their latest announced schedule. Very encouraging.

I'm in batch 3, so here's hoping that they can keep to their schedule and start shipping out the B3 units on the 19th.

In the meantime, I'll be very interested in reading about the experience that B1 users have. Enjoy the relatively low difficulty guys Wink

usually I don't see it say shipped till the package is already half way to my house. I son't think they update the status right away.

Does anyone else realize it is 11:00pm in China right now..  nothing is moving at the moment.

Maybe.  I know that the last few shipments I've received from Bitmain were almost always picked up around 11PM China time.

YMMV.

From my side, I was one of the first ones to purchase within a few minutes for Batch 1 but do not see a shipping update.

I second that.

I have a second minute batch 1 order and I haven´t received tracking yet, so I doubt they have shipped in quantity yet.

However, it does take some time to update all the tracking info, so I might be wrong.

Does it only show shipping on myups? That could also mean that they just printed the label.....

I can confirm shipping. I'm running out the door,  so I don't have time to take and mod a screenshot,  but my.ups tells me that my B1 S3s should be here(west coast USA) on Thursday.  my.ups is telling me that the order is ready for pickup,  so it might end up being Friday.

In the past,  when bitmain has been particularly swamped,  the shipped notification on the website has been a little bit slower to update.

So I need some help here peoples. I do fly in fly out work with a 3 week on roster. So im going to be away from home when the miners arrive. My girl is home but is absolutely computer illiterate. I have setup the power supply ready for when they arrive with labelling for which cables go where so she can just plug them in. But as far as setting it up goes would i be able to setup the miners remotely with teamviewer with another computer set up at home? Reading about the S1 seems the internet has to be disconnected and then connect the compter directly to the miner. Is this true with the s3 do you think?
Does anyone have any ideas how I could set up the miners remotely?
Thanks Smiley
To answer your question would require a bit of knowledge about your home's network.  Are you running a 192.168.1.* system, or are you using something else?  I am guessing (and this is going on Bitmain's usage of that network in the S1 and S2) that the S3 will follow the same pattern and use that type of address.

Assuming that Bitmain continues to use the 192.168.1.* addresses, and your home network is on that same network, then using Teamviewer to setup the miners remotely shouldn't be a big deal at all.

My home network uses 192.168.2.*
Is that configurable? Could I just change the router to assign the DHCP setting to 192.168.1.*?

It depends on how bitmain configured the miner IPs.
Check with bitmain via their support email.
Also you can guide you girl to do that for your if you can arrange a laptop or another system and a webcam.
Or even via a phone's video calling.

Absolutely.  Changing your network is usually pretty easy to do in your router's config.

Thanks for the help. Network has been changed to 192.168.1.*
Had to re-cycle all the devices on the network to get them going but were all sweet now  Grin
As was posted above... take some screenshots and print them out.  Show your girl how to handle making the changes to the router in the off chance that the S3s come with a different address range.  This way, you can call her from the road and walk her through the process should it be necessary.  My guess is that Bitmain will stick with the 192.168.1.* range.

Also, make sure you have statically assigned IPs for your current miners so there isn't a conflict.  Do something like 192.168.1.201-210 depending on how may miners you currently have hashing away.

Found Lost beach - quiet now
Patience, grasshopper  Cool

It's a beautiful day today. I'm on my deck enjoying a beer and a cig while my S1s, that have already paid for themselves, continue hashing along still making money.

Am I the only one waiting for the dust to settle?
