NVM! fixed it, it wasn't internet failing, it was it not getting enough power once in a while, since two miners were connected to a 750w. SO what I did, is I attached three blades to the 750w,  then with my 520w, that powered the 3rd miner but I used one of the Molex, cut it and added it to the last blade that the 750w couldn't supply power too, it hasn't went down yet since. my shit is so weird right now, but as long as its hashing lol.

Wait so cox disabled the Ethernet ports on your router?

Lol I know exactly what your problem is now you don't need ddrt ( if you don't understand dhcp how do you plan go flash firmware?)

I have three miners on wifi, only one of the miners literally disconnects at least every 10 minutes, none of the others have had this problem, is there a faulty network card on the miner possibly?

okay right on on th emotorola, will i be able to switch out teh current netgear they originally gave me or am i stuck with it to ebay it>

What is the model # of your modem.......

I bought a self install modem from my local Best Buy...it was $80 6 years ago.

I did that cause I game online & wanted internet in my rental ASAP & Comcast couldn't get there for 2 weeks,be damned if I was gonna go without that long 

On the back of the modem is a MAC address,I just called Comcast & gave them that & they had me online in minutes 

Be careful,make sure it will work in your area,so we need to know what your present modem is........your local Best Buy should know,check with Geek Squad in the store,just don't let them install it,that'll cost ya 

As samsonn25 said,a DOCsis 3 is better,but may not work in your area,it's not available in my area yet 

You got a lot homework to do to get this right,but it may be worth it    Ask questions before buying 

You should get a Motorola docsis 3.0 modem.

Feed it to the wireless wifi:   And im pretty sure almost any wireless router works like Cisco/Linksys 1000-6000 series. /Netgear/Asus/ etc

Antminer $1100

Power Supply $150

Modem $80-100

Router $60-120

Cable bill  $30-55


Mining is an investment   

Oh, and its not comcast, its linksys, I actualy happen to have the same exact one. only for dd-wrt, the guy at radioshack literally wouldnt let me buy it, he "recommended" the one that obviously costed 80 dollars more, after i said fine i'll go to another radioshack, he sold it to me. stupid commission feeding bastards.




The only problem with my E1200, is that it would not receive internet via wifi, so therefore could not deliver internet via ethernet cables to the miners, that is why I have to run all three wirelessly. Hopefully I can fix this so I can run all through ethernet, but yeahhh...

Oh shit, see, the problem is, I can't hook that up to my cable modem because none of my ethernet ports on my cable modem work. Cox gave me a cable modem with a router built in, to bad none of the ethernets work, I wish they just gave me a standard cable modem and let me buy my own router...

I have Comcast & use this router,it is VERY easy to install & manage:

This is a free switch I got yardsaleing:



Just about any switch will do,dosen't have to be 1000mbs,10-100 is just fine 

about every 30 minutes one of them will lose internet connection and beep for a good 3-4 min, this will affect me in the long run. :\ need the dd-wrt eventually i think...

I'd love to have them all ethernet but as you know...my dd-wrt is so fked up so I can't do anything about it, I just have to live through the occasional beeping that the miner loses connectivitty . I stripped the wires from the 2v2 PCI  ATX and put them in three spots, one spot having a combo, turneed on and everything looks good.




Should I keep it like this, or run them all wired ethernet? I would probably have to go buy a new cable modem, then a new router, and just do it plug and play like that eh? its hard when cox issues you a cable box without asking you what you'd like...

if seen 2 different timeouts

36 and 38.  Which one?

Sill $43.50 per day. not bad at all

Mine hash at about 201 and draw around 380W (in the "sweet spot" on my psu) with these settings in /etc/config/asic-freq

        option 'freq_value'     '5f05'  
        option 'chip_freq'      '393.75'
        option 'timeout'        '36'

that didn't work

looks good man.  a tip is get at least 550 watt psu and don't go cheap on psu for miners.  also, bitcoin mining is typically a production environment...you want to have wired ethernet.

As a an enthusiast I would oc them to 375mhz or 392.5mhz

Okay, so currently I"m running everything wireless. all three of my miners, my 500psu that I bought at bestbuy was gay at only had one 2x6 pin so I had to unplug the second blade.  I am currently hashing at 180/180/90(bc of one blade)   When I get home, I am planning on cutting down 4 yellow wires (connecting two to one) and cutting down 4 black wires (connecting to two one) leaving me with 3 black wires and 3 yellow wires, then I will be putting that into the screw slot to hope that the  520w +20w than I thought will be enough to power the second blade.


I seperately hooked ethernet to each miner and made them x7, x8, x9, to the three miners respectively, I can log onto them wirelessly, but only through my ip address that gets assigned by my wireless box. Am I on the right track, if anyone could give me any input I'd gladly appreciate it.


Time to time, I have two miners hooked to a corsair 750w and one would make beeping noises, I'd either reset or wait for it to go away, i think it was a net issue not a power issue, but my main plan was to use pci cables for 3 blades out of the 4 on my two miners so it didn't over power the 750w, then on my 500w use the one 2x6pin, and then cutting down the wires to put in the +12v slots, leaving me with a few extra wires to hook to the 4th blade of my second miner coming back to the thought of not wanting to overpower the 750w PSU which hasn't had any issues. The only issue is just that one in a while, it will beep every 5-7 seconds alarming it got off the internet.


Looking good so far but would appreciate any tips/help. Thanks for everything guys.

DOH    I didn't notice that 

I saw the btc rate too, it was programmed at 50btc block not 25.

Ok,let me know when your ready again    Keep that payrate & I'll be back
