What I did was install Bfgminer 3.2.1 onto a raspberry pi. I believe building Bfgminer on a Linux machine where the Windows version does not have the http proxy built into it yet. This is how I set mine up.

./bfgminer --http-port-8332 -o stratum.d7.lt:3333 -u usrName -p x

on my blade I set the server IP to the same IP as my raspberry pi ports to 8332 and gave it a unique name and password. Everything started working about 15 seconds after doing an update/restart with the blade.

I have been using the Slush mining_proxy and it worked pretty well but the Bfgminer --http-port 8332 is much better

i can't connect the ASIC BLADE to work ...  when i write this "--http-port 8332" it doesnt detect my ASIC blade.

Code:
I want to use the blade without keep my PC running all the time.

The connection should be made via router.

From what i understand from here i must install STRATUM PROXY ( your link is not working )  to start mining ?

If you wish to mine without a pc/pi then you will need to select a pool that still supports getwork protocol. Some still do, but it may be a slower rate of hashing due to the work being sent to the blade slower.

 If you do have a pc available, then best thing to do is install bfgminer 3.2.1 which has a built in stratum proxy.  I brought a mini 100mbps switch from ebay, connected the blade to that and the switch to the router via ethernet.

I was hashing in 10 mins.



i have installed bfgminer 3.2.1 and start it , but is mining using my laptop.
the blade can be connected to the internet via router, or must use a switch ?

what settings i must put to make it to mine using the blade ?


Code:
bfgminer --http-port 8332 -o us2.eclipsemc.com:3333 -u vulgart -p 123 -L logfinal.txt -G

that is the current code  i am using. --http-port 8332 is the part that tells bfg miner to look on port 8332 for a blade.




thank you !

could you paste the settings you have on blade settings page ?  ( primary dns, secondary dns, gateway )

I've had 4 "xxxx" on my configuration page for a few days.  Does anyone know how troubleshoot this?  I've already confirmed good voltage at the power side of the card (older, fused version).

Does anyone have a pin-out for the actual ASIC chip?

Thanks in advance.

Try a hardware reset.  It's worked for me.

Sorry for what's probably a foolish question, just want to confirm that you're referring to the crossing the jumpers reset, not just a power-cycle?

Thanks!

EDIT:  Sadly, still no dice.  Any ideas?  Just to reiterate, I'm wondering if anyone has a pin-out of the ASIC chip so I can troubleshoot the board.

Thanks again.

Indeed you will need to run a stratum proxy because the Blade only supports getwork, which is now deprecated if not obsolete.

Like most users I guess, I'm running it on a Raspberry Pi too.

you forgot about password
last line

user:password,user:password

as dns you can put

192.168.0.1 (router dns)
8.8.8.8 (reserve dns)

and dont use eu-stratum.btcguild.com as servers
put proxy on netbook or pi and point blade to that

for example
192.168.0.44,192.168.0.44

hello

i have this problem :

i have a ASCIC Blade generation 2

i have connected the blade thru a router D-Link 815
i dont know what i must input in these fields : PRIMARY DNS , SECONDARY DNS  from internet provider ?
also which GATEWAY ?
i must forward on my router to get the blade started ?

screenshot attached, for detailes

I've a question.

Got an Blade, the old version. It's overclocked. I'm using 2 12x12cm fans for cooling and  set the clock to high but only get something around 11,5 to 12,5 GHs. Are this normal Results in oc mode? The 13 GHs are max or average speed?

regards
Just a not, your hashrate depends greatly on the pool you are using. I have a new blade and  finding a pool that will provide the work stable enough to run at max hash rate is pretty hard to do.

Both Windows and Linux. You use the --http-port flag to set the getwork port. By default it's 8332 I believe, but you could use anything as long as the blade uses the same.

Basically start BFG as you normally would, add --http-port 8332, and point your blades to the server running BFG using 8332 and they'll connect up. For blade setup make sure each blade has a unique worker name, password doesn't matter.

I built BFG from source last night and the http-port command isn't showing up. Is it segregated 32/64-bit as under windows?

I'm pretty sure that option is supported with 64-bit Linux.  Make sure you have the libmicrohttpd-dev package installed, and the build should enable it by default.  You should be able to find out why it wasn't enabled somewhere in the config.log.

The 64 bit version of bfg does not support blades via http port I believe. 32 bit bfg works fine on my win 7 64bit machine
