The hole at the other end of the prisma that the fan isn't on.

No, don't cover that up.
Ok, thanks was just wondering since the second revision prisma looks like all they did was put a case and covered the hole and the rest was the same.

I'm using a 10volt power supply would that be the cause? To much power I'm unsure it just disconnect from the pool and restarts mining..
No that's fine, it will vreg itself down to whatever its actual voltage is. Does it have enough amperage though, the adapter is recommended to be 12-15W.
I had a 9 volt 2 amp power supply on it I believe it's a rev 1.0 erupter everything I seen was 5 volts at 2 amps? I want more like 10-12 amps?

No, 12-15W recommended = 2-3A at 5V.
Thanks @dogie, I have one last question I fell like it's dumb but at the same time I don't with the second gen prisms they have a case covering the hole? Is it possible/ ok for me to cover the hole as well on my prismas to force the air out the sides instead of letting the air escape through the middle and if I do. Should I add a fan for a push pull to help force the air out?

What hole are you referring to? Push pull is better than just pull but unless you add a fan of similar power it may just make things worse.

See if someone can help me. Just got done prismas and a block erupter the person want sure of the ip that it was set up on so I plugged it into my laptop. I changed it to the stock as in the description. I set my linksys router to 192.168.0.1 but it doesn't have a subnet category. So in the end I can't connect into the back erupter. Am I missing something?

Push the button in on the front of the BE Controller.

You will find it at 192.168.0.254:8000 (I believe, it's been a while)
Thanks It Worked, it was also on the instructions duhh lol..

But now it worked great for 2 hours now it continually resets around the 2 minute Mark no matter what pool and clock speed. Any suggestions?

What do you mean by "resets"?

Like, goes back to default settings???

One of the main problems I encountered is if you're using a weak or unstable power source for the BE Controller, it will act up a lot.

230 has been the most stable for me with the BE Controller.

You mean it is mining, then it disconnects from the pool and then starts mining again?  And does this in a cycle?
Correct..

zadig replaced the driver, I'm trying on Windows at the moment and just keep getting pool 0 difficulty changed to 32 and then pool 0 successfully negotiated resume with the same session ID

Edit : it seems to be working now... Thanks, it worked out of nowhere on Windows.

Are your drivers correct? I'm not sure what's required on Linux but Windows the stock CP2102 driver isn't the right one to use with cgminer.

Have you tried starting up cgminer then hot plugging the device in? I had one of those crap miners and could never get it to work due to the USB adapter being bad, but the miner did show up for me.
