so the only thing that i did that could have caused this issue was updating the firmware on the router. i ended up resetting the router back to original settings, and reset up everything like i did last night and the miner started working again. when i checked to see if a new firmware was available i saw that it was but i decided not to test reinstalling it since i dont have the time to try and fix it if that is the issue.
the firmware im currently running for my router is: Current Version : 3.0.0.4.384_10007-g8e859e9
Topic: Avalon 741 Socket Connect Fail => Connection refused (Read 177 times)
I am getting the Socket Connect Fail => Connection refused, I understand this has to do with internet connection or pool settings. Nothing have changed in the pool settings its on slush and I don't believe that is the issue.
I did receive a new router and asus rt-86u, everything was working fine for 12 hours. I set up the VPN server on the router and when I logged into the LAN IP address associated with the controller I noticed it wasn't recognizing the Avalon 741.
This error happened once before with my old router and the issue was the firewall. I had to keep the firewall at a low setting. The Asus has the firewall set to one automatically and it was working fine. I turned off the firewall on the asus and it still isn't working. Anyone have any other suggestions?
also, if anyone has information about how to set the firewall up so that I can still mine but block malicious things please point me in the direction.
ps. I love this router, I have figured out how to set up the vpn, use time machine from the HDD plugged into the router, ssh into the router.. overall it has been fun but I need to get this miner back up.
