I think it's better to limit it to ~330 MHs[/code]

so now it has run for ~2.5h and gone to 346 MHs



but HW is 2144 (thats 11.xx%)


I think that is much to much or?


no, HW error is 1.46%  Cheesy

everything else looks good except Temp2 which is malfunctioning.  looks like your sensor is bad.

It's fine if you calculate it correctly ;-)

The correct formula to calculate HW% (with cgminer fieldnames) is: 100 * HW / (diff1shares + HW)

a few hours later it happened again
warm reboot does not solve the problem
all 0,00
only a switch off, wait 20 sec and switch on again helped...

Can you post what the Status -> Cgminer API log shows at that point?
ok, 2 hours later the same...
I think in a few hours it is coming again, then I will try to copy/paste Cgminer API log

Actually all zeroes indicates cgminer never started. There is a problem somewhere in your options.

I'm confused, if the cgminer never started (or if it gets killed for some reason), doesn't the

Status -> Cgminer API log tab

only show these lines:

Code:
[Firmware Version] => 20130703
cgminer-a011fe5
luci-d854edc+
cgminer-openwrt-packages-800cc58
Socket connect failed: Connection refused

and the

Status -> Cgminer Status tab

show the empty fields with "This section contains no values yet" in stead of the 0 filled fields?
If you have this output, cgminer is not running.

The cron job runs every 2min and check the shares submitted, if there is no change in 2min then cgminer gets killed and started again.
Make sure your pool diff is not to high <200 so that your avalon (cgminer) can submit a share in these 2min (variance). Make sure your pool works.

I had also problems with the timeout. If it was to low, then cgminer stopped working and only a power off helped. When I used 36:355 it worked without that problem, but with some more rejects which is better then a non working unit.
To change this, you can try edit "/etc/init.d/cgminer". There is a timeout calculation "12xxx / Mhz", you have to increase it and deactivate the auto clock. If you use auto clock the divider is changed by cgminer avalon-driver back to it's default, so the edit in this file will not work with --avalon-auto.

so, after the first test run with this options I saw in the morning that avalon does not provide shares
cgminer restarted every few minutes, but always 0.00 MHs
only a hard reset does help
anyone have had this before?
TIA
Remove all the --avalon options, set a Chip Frequency(for example 282) and try again. I also have a silver Avalon that doesn't like the new --avalon options. No idea why, I don't have much time to investigate so I have it hashing at 282Mhz.

Have you flashed the TP-LINK to the lastest ckvolias firmware?

Yes, it's running 20130703.

I have the same problem , change the crome job changed the versions with no real  result
It happened regardless of cip frequency , with higher settings it will happen faster (maybe because of lower timing)
I think is the controller board V1.2 , I`ve ordered a spare one v1.5 from  strombom  to check if it is really the problem
Next week I`ll post the results.
I can confirm that the cgminer is workink ,the process is running , if you stop/start it manualy 75% of tries it will not hash  ,
It starts with the unit making the MHS5s job =0 and the pool alerts you no has is going on , MHSav has status present and the fan is working also , everything looks ok  except the 0 status.
After the cgminer restarts the status is 0 an all the tabs and all the submitted work goes to hw error tab  , tab version and frequency are present with correct values.
Soft reboot with v 703 fixes it 95% of times
with version lower then 703 only hard reboot will fix it .
Hard reboot fixe it 100%
I`m running now with --quiet --avalon-cutoff 65 --avalon-fan 90    frequency 330
added 3 more fan 120x120x38 138m3/h at 100%  temp in 14-16  temp sensor 2 frem 29-33  max 35

If you look at the values of the fan speed and the temperature, they are at 0 which indicates there is
a problem with the FPGA module.

If you power it down for 20 seconds and power it up again, you will reset it.

If the problem persists, you could have a hardware problem. If you open it up, is the version 1.52?

I'm wondering what mining pools people like to use with their Avalons.

I tried 50BTC but it seems like the hashrate they tell me is significantly lower than what my Avalon reports in CGMiner status (should be getting 84Gh/s or so but it shows me 72-74). I know this is a known issue with them but it seems like the coins I am mining are lower too by the same amount (even after taking into account the fees). I like their interface but I wonder if there are better pools. Or maybe this is typical due to invalid shares or something?

I've tried ozcoin and it works for a little bit but then frequently gets disconnected or the pool goes down or I'm not sure what it going on. Maybe network latency but the average hashrate I get there is very very low.

What pools does everyone else use and what is good for the US?

there are

slushs pool

yes I've done the following
Connect your laptop to the eithernet port of the Avalon
Setup your laptop IP address 192.168.0.101 (IPV 4)
Open http://192.168.0.100

it just won't go anywhere from there. It should bring up a page, but it doesn't and just times out.
Any help would be great! will reward someone if can help

Does anyone have any tips for getting the side panel back on?  I just spent like an hour trying to get all the screws to line up, stay in place, and tighten up.  I still have 3 that screwed in all sideways and I can't get to straighten out.

First, make sure you have sufficient light in your work area to see what you're doing.  This makes any job much easier.

I just used my left hand to maneuver the slotted nut into place and rotate it so the slot mates up with the case, and hold it in place with a finger, while using my right hand to thread the screw into it.

They all went back in OK without any crossthreading or other nastiness.

(it's the top panel, not side panel.)
