Does resetting the S3 take the IP back to factory default?

Also, I'm assuming the IP of the computer you're using to access is also in the same subnet?

Advanced IP Scanner shows this unit at 192.168.1.107... Well, there's two, but I'm having the same problem with both units...

So I go to that address as normal, and I would see the black LuCI (or whatever) screen, and then boom, unavailable. What the hell is the problem? I tried to reset them like 20 times, but no matter what, I couldn't get the things to reset. I took the top shell off too, just to be sure I was holding the button properly, and I was. No change...

Is there any other way to reset it besides the reset button? I remember someone saying something about an SD card, but this is in regards to the rack units like the S2, S4, etc, correct? I believe they had either a Raspberry Pi, or a Beaglebone, or something in them as a controller...

I'm at my wits end. I can't connect to these miners, and 3 weeks of mining has gone by with no solution... I really hope one of you can help me out here, because I can't imagine what else I could possibly try to get these things going... Thank you!

Can you SSH into the miner? You can use Putty to do so;

This should help us know what the hell is going on and if you can SSH then you effectively have regained access to your miner.
