there is nothing plugged into this usb port yet it is covered with yellow tape? 

The yellow tape, kapton tape, is just to communicate to users that nothing should be plugged into this port (removing fuse F1 makes this port un-powered). Leave the tape.

just upgraded firmware to ckolivas latest version:  http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/avalon/20130627/openwrt-ar71xx-generic-tl-wr703n-v1-squashfs-factory.bin

despite multiple restarts, reboots, hard reboots i still don't get hashing

any suggestions?:


Did you un-check the box that said "keep settings"?

no, i was told to keep it checked Sad

that's what the wiki says to do too.

I'd suggest you try reflashing with "keep settings" UN-checked. This will reset your machine to defaults so you will have to set your password, network settings, turn off the WIFI, etc... just like you did when you first received your machine.



this seemed to do it.

hashing away altho at low 60K MH/s levels.  better than nothing at this point.

will try tweaking cgminer clock rates.

this is a batch #2 that had firmware 20130419.

is it possible this unit still has that F1 fuse?

i only received this 2 days ago so according to wiki it's already been removed.

edit:  just checked and it HAS been removed.

@cypherdoc:

Did you check all the connections inside the box ? All flat cables pushed in the sockets ?  yes

Maybe change the USB cable into another port of the hub ?  not yet

Diagnostics from the Network-tab are functioning ? connection ok ?  yes

What's visable in Cgminer API log ?

350 and pretty cool without airco Cool



(1 fan on max rpm)

How do you set your ASIC to be like that? I'm getting 46 degrees. its crazy!

Avalon vertical, external psu and vent blowing to the bottemplate.
Mid-fan (fan2) blowing max rpm, other fans auto.

My ambient basement temp = 20-23 degrees.

Right now both fans are on auto again and therefor Temp2 is over 40.

finally got it to work with ozcoin.

any idea why registered hashrate at ozcoin would be half 33 MH/s vs. 66 MH/s in cgminer status?

nvm.  ozcoin registering properly.

i ran this:

Code:
home@server:~/git/bitcoin$ bitcoind -reindex

cursor dropped down one line and is just blinking by itself.  does that mean its reindexing?  how can i tell?

Probably.  Is your disk activity light blinking?  Does top or ps show bitcoind using a lot of CPU?  If yes, then it's doing its thing.

For me the process takes hours on a fast system with an SSD.

yeah, i got a blue light on front of pc flashing and top says bitcoind @ 60-70%
