on github? the overclocking para is been in the git for awhile now, it's just not enabled by default.

I'll forward the BFGMiner.

Where is the source code for this?

Would love to get some feedback on BFGMiner for Avalon alpha as well..

can you please check the firmware bin with the option  to overclock

  * Add overclock code
  * Change the cgminer configure to UCI system
  * Add the simple web ui

That'd be nice, but what makes you think they'll update today?

I`ve heard that the avalon "eats"(slows) the internet, is that true?  BTC GUILD at high difficult >100.

shouldn't we get an update today?

Is there any way to tell if they arent setting up their own separate mining farm on the side ?

Thats not as much as i thought. So Asicminer is still the biggest with 3.6TH at the moment. But what i wonder is what Asicminer is working on. It looks like they can build 0.2TH per day and bring it online. But avalon claimed that they can prepare 12 units a day, together 0.78TH. And Avalon has to create a full standalone thing while asicminer only has to put in one board in the rack.

So what i think about is what friedcat and co are working on that takes that much time. Are they sitting with a soldering bolt at a PCB and working to get the asics on the plate or what is the timeeater? I mean they dont have the 12TH online till now and in the next days 50TH will come shipped to them because the fab was faster than they thought. I see there is a problem but i dont know what it is that is eating the time. Even though they work around the clock they claim.
I already suggested that even when they hire professional electricians the salary wouldnt be high in comparision to the mined bitcoins with the units. But i would like to know what steps they have to do now that is eating the time. Does someone know? Friedcat doesnt answer now that he is busy so much. But i still think the speed now is a problem and some solution must be found. And i dont mean that friedcat or co has to work more. They should get help. But without knowing wheres the problem no one can suggest a solution really.

Your point is true. But cant you imagine if they did use dhcp? Ppl would be saying they plugged it in but cannot figure out the ip.
Then ppl would say download nmap to do a ping scan.. And etc... Using a static ip is reasonable to me. A lot of gear comes that way. Well at least specialized gear that is.

Only because DHCP can't scale to networking.
DHCP is the routing protocol for last-hop; would you run your ISP equipment without any routing protocols?

If by end user you meant someone who can barely use a router... Sure, the wan will be dhcp and lan have a static ip with dhcp.
But all other gear for people with a clue, well supposed to have a clue like a bitcoin miner, static ip is very reasonable.
No ISP gear has dhcp turned on by default like a switch, router, dslam, etc...

Huh? What decade are you living in? Everything made for end-users today assumes a DHCP environment.

Why they must use DHCP by default? 95% devices I saw, was configured with static address, cos users often don't have any dhcp-service running.

Even more complicated hardware (for example ISP hardware) have static addresses by default... If device have dhcp client enabled by default, it have fallback option to preconfigured ip address or custom software to change ip address without any address binded.

I know they all need unique IP but I'm surprised they're not configured to use DHCP by default. Anyway, I'll see when my unit arrive.
