Thanks guys, but I'm trying to connect this to a workspace network that requires me to add the MAC address of it to work, and I don't see it despite being being connected to the same network. (probably because the router rejects its connection). I tried connecting the LAN cable to my laptop directly, but I can't seem to find it either.... any ideas?
Tried, but it's still not showing up on the myminer.io page. I've bought a router off Amazon with 1 day shipping.
John,
I work somewhere that limits access to the dhcp system via mac addresses, surely there will be logs showing the SP20 trying to connect and being rejected. Unless you don't have access to that system.
The SP20 is setup differently to other miners in that it needs DHCP to get its IP address, some others like the Bitmain kit comes with a preset IP address, which requires a different set of hoops to jump through
Nah, no access to that. I was wondering if it will give a login page if I manage to find its IP? I found (what I think is) its MAC address using wireshark, and have given it access to the network, but none of the IP's seem to give any access at all to the control interface. myminer.io is empty as always...
Yes, I can get to it but the page is empty as usual. (with the title etc in tact of course)
Yes, if you hit the right IP address with a web browser it will prompt you for username/password.
Okay, I'll keep on trying!
Without an IP assigned to it it wont' respond, you need a DHCP server running to have an IP address assigned to it.

I thought I got the actual MAC (probably not) of the miner by doing the wireshark trick and whitelisted it, but apparently it's not the MAC here as I couldn't connect to any of the devices on the network via a browser. Anyway, I got a router in the mail - hopefully tomorrow should work!
Thanks again for your help!
