can someone explain what the setup is? i don't understand why you'd want to run cgminer on a router. you're not trying to mine with the router's proc right?..

no, you mine on the FPGA attached to the router via USB, attached to the router instead of a pc because a router uses very little electricity

i'm new to this concept so forgive me.

but you use the pc to monitor the routers results right? how much more electricity does the pc use over the router?

This is not OK.

Tried it on a regular PC? Maybe you'll see the same thing?

I see strange hashrate on pools after update to this version. I have 2 BFL single, so usually I have ~1650 mh/s, but with this update btc guild says my average speed is only ~1200 mh/s, so I switched to slush's pool. Here I still have adequate payout (about 0.5 btc/day) but reported average hashrate is only 1066 mh/s. I suspect it's because of some side effect of stratum protocol. Do you know why it is so?

(cgminer reports normal hashrate for slush, but reduced hashrate for btc guild :-/ That's odd.)

P_Shep, thanks for doing this!

What are you doing for a compile env? are you actually compiling on your openWRT box, or did you build an Env on a i386/x64 machine? If the later, any links/guidance to doing the same?

Cross-compiling. Links to dev env is at the bottom of the readme.

CGminer has it by a whisker.

2 days is nowhere near long enough for that amount of precision.

I also got told, that bfgminer has more fpga optimized code than cgminer right now? maybe run a compile of that one, should "behave" the same with api, config etc.? At least worth a try, im going to sleep now though.

I've compiled bfgminer and will run that for a couple of days. see what the results are. so far after 15hrs, my U is about 0.5 lower than cgminer, but still early to say.

Can you point me to a link to be able to setup my workstation to compile the cgminer git code for dd-wrt

At the bottom of the readme is a link to the compiler, and the option I built with. There's no guide on how to do it... there's not enough time in the world to write one! It took me a few weeks to get it all working and this is part what I do for a living.
