Hello,

one of my Avalons stoped hashing today.
I restarted it, but it did not work.

Than i enabled the debug output:
http://pastebin.com/PgfS5jzT

It seems that the USB is not working properly.

Any Ideas ? I powered it down for a minute and restared it, but still the same debug output.

Firmware: http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/avalon/20130821/
Thanks

4-moduled Avalon B3 generated 27 gb of outgoing traffic per 24 hours? can this be true?


Not likely

Here are 8 Avalons (6 x 3 + 2 x 4 modules) running:



One machine uses about 7 MB / day worth of trafic

Thank you for detailed answer. Here's what I've got: 2Gb for just 5h 35m:



My Avalon is hosted in the datacenter and they are asking me to pay bills for this gigabytes (total 143 Gb for more than 1 month).


Firmware was taken from http://ck.kolivas.org/apps/cgminer/avalon/20130821/


wow that's a lot of data

Uptime: 32d 13h 53m 30s

RX: 1.15 GB (11060428 Pkts.)
TX: 2.35 GB (18433190 Pkts.)

and that's been running flat out for over a month now
a tcpdump on your router will tell you what is going on. Have in mind it might be faulty Ethernet interface also
Fire a tcpdump and you will know what is going on

its not insecure.. ddwrt is one of the most secure firewalls.
is you access fully open, then its config, not related to showing ddwrt to public.
keep a safe password and your safe.

Firewalls should not run a web interface pointing to the interwebs

I stopped mining and blocked internet. Here's what I've got:
Uptime: 1h 23m 2s
RX: 1.17 MB (8347 Pkts.)
TX: 879.54 KB (2055 Pkts.)

By the way, if the reason is in lack of security.. can anyone help with setting up the firewall?
I'm mining at eligius.st and bitcoin.cz.
How to allow traffic only to and from these sites and to me by my MAC address

mac addresses stop at your router and is not published to net.
dont worry about trolls. ddwrt is safe, keep a solid password and you are fine..

I have found that Eligius selects a share difficulty that I consider way too low, which will result in more bandwidth use than mining with a higher share difficulty would.

For some reason the Eligius admins seem to think that 1 share per second is an optimal target, and don't provide a means to override it.

I mine on bitparking myself where I can manually specify the share difficulty using the password field ("d=1024", etc).

Personally, I think 1 share per minute or less is a better target.

Now I'm wondering if unplugging the affected miner from the bus would work.  Might be tough to do, but it would let me use the other seven miners on that module without having to try and repair the broken one.
I've done this.  It works.

Just remove the screws and peel/pull it off (the thermal paste will stick a bit).  Depending on which one it is, you may have to remove the backplane board to access all the screws.

Bogart (and anyone else who has tried) how did you do it and did it let you use the remaining 7 of the workers or only 6 on the module?

In my b3, I found that the module is one big pcb...

Mine was in the batch 1/2 style (a clone made by Strombom actually), with 10 chips to a PCB.  Yes, the remaining 7 still ran.

One big PCB definitely makes disconnecting just one "miner" difficult.  I'm not coming up with an easy solution.

And who knows what other backdoors are installed by the NSA into the project ;-)

Indeed!    Sad

The router having cgminer installed is actually a firewall. Do you consider it to be easily hacked?

It depends on how you configure your cgminer, if for example for remote management and monitoring you have enabled "API Allow" to have more than the default: W:127.0.0.1
then you open up yourself for trouble...

By the way, you have your systems sitting naked on the Interwebs without any firewalling? Eh yuck...
