Every month when I get my power bill I look at cost of electricity to mine and value of bitcoins mined during the same period. When it cost more in electricity than value of BTC I'm going to shut down. I guess if enough of us do then difficulty will go down.
You are looking at it from the wrong perspective. You need to be wishing for the big players to call it a day, that way there is a chance for bitcoin difficulty reduction that is sustainable. The home miners do not account for a large enough percentage to "shut down" in concert to cause a difficulty reduction that is sustainable. Its those huge corporate farms, the same ones dumping BTC thus responsible for the downward pressure on BTC value that need to shut down. If you are signed up to a collective, pray, if not then get your witches' broom out for them!They're doing the same thing. CEX.IO has already stopped. Maybe you're right, if enough big players stop mining. They usually have an advantage with lower power cost, but we have the advantage with lower maintenance cost (since most of us do ourselves as a hobby).

I keep getting a XML error everytime I try to access the miner configuration page... I'm running the october firmware, already tried to reset it but it's still the same. I don't get this error with any other firmware but want to keep this one as it seem to be the most stable for me.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Log into the rig via SSH and paste this then press enterAny ideas on how to fix this?
Code:
sed -i 's/Save\&Apply/Save\&Apply/g' /usr/lib/lua/luci/model/cbi/cgminer/cgminer.lua
Now you should be able to access the miner configuration page.
PS. That was the minor bug that led to the ensuing cascading firmware update shenanigans!

^^^ that thing does not have enough amperage to power two blades. Bitmain spec is nearly 14 Amps at 12 volts PER BLADE. The PSU, you link to, will MAX OUT at 23 Amps total.
14 Amps for an S3?
Is that correct?
I have 3, S3s running off an EVGA 1000 which is on a 120 VAC 20 AMP breaker
I wonder why that breaker hasn't tripped...
I better take one of them off while I check this a little further.
14*3 = 42 AMPS, no way I am doubling the capacity of that breaker.
Your breaker's rating is based on the 120 volt input. In terms of amps it is far less than the output amps at 12 volts.

What is more realistic?
I am moving everything to 240, but I would like to have a better idea all the way around?
S3 and S4?, may as well tell me S5 if I am going to buy one

ouch... Bye bye $250..... 
See you soon @ $1,000 range again!!! in my dream...
See you soon @ $1,000 range again!!! in my dream...
And now back down to $190 USD!!!!
oh my god 1 BTC=184.2 USD I think I am getting real sick!!!!!
This was it at the time of this post. I QUIT!!!!

this is what I meant about rich powerful companies pushing us home miners right out the door!!!!
corporate greed I guess.
or JUST PLAIN GREED!!
DECENTRALIZED MARKET RIGHT FOR WHO!!! LOL LOL LOL

Market will be closed when the maintenance fee equals to the mining revenue. And then terminate service after reserving the hardware for 10 days
Due to the aging of actual miners, the quality and hashrate of miners delivered to users are not guaranteed
Sounds like a sweet deal
it might not be such a bad deal. basically unlike cloud hash where you purchase ghs directly, they are offering to plug in YOUR s4 that you purchase (used i assume) and direct it to the pool with your username.
they cant guarantee hash rate, because each s4 is slightly different. altho it looks like if your used s4 fails in their possession, they will replace it.
it also looks like when the fee is higher then the payout, they offer to mail it to you. which unfortunately probably wont take very long.

its ok, with the dropping price of bitcoin, these larger mining companies are going to pull the plug soon.
this will drop difficulty and let the smaller home miners make more bitcoin.
I just cant seem to program a static IP when I try to log in to the new STATIC ip it says PAGE NOT FOUND like its not finding the web UI
Also what is that little black button do by the SD card slot and can you put a SD card in it I don't know just got it that's why I am wondering??
Man the fan is real load to load its sounds like the miner is ready for takeoff like a boing 747 starting up!!!!
Also cant put S3 fans on it either fan cable to short if I get an extender will it work they look way different?

?You can get a quasi static IP by setting that device to always use the same IP via your router. Its like fixed DHCP.
SD card slot on an S3? If you mean S5, I don't see what button you're referring to. The SD card slot is not used.
