I may have missed this, but how do you update the tplink after switching to the technobit OpenWRT?


Go to SYSTEM - BACKUP / FLASH FIRMWARE
Choose keep setting so your various setting like IP & cgminer will be keep.



Then hit Flash image.., then Proceed


Do not closed your browser until router restart !!!
 
When all process done, ssh to the router & run command:
Code:
/usr/bin/fix_rc

using chrome Smiley

Thx for the help

Was already expecting problems like this, so i've got two routers.
one for actual using and a spare 1 for upgrade.
This buys me time to upgrade

Cool

well i used your link. Download looks like previous one Smiley and same result    Huh
Did an factory upgrade without keeping settings.
Same with the upgrade file. Even extra reboot does not solve it

Really dont know why i dont get the a3 option

Hostname   HEX16A
Model   TP-Link TL-MR3020 v1
Firmware Version    OpenWrt Barrier Breaker r40296 / LuCI Trunk (svn-r9963)
Kernel Version   3.10.34


Finally solved it.

Went back to old image v 0.1.3 and then back again to this one. now i got the a3 option

First time i did the update was with upgrade bin file. now i did use only the factory bin files.
Is your ie cashing too much
Usually the upgrade happens from the first try or shit happens and router became a brick
But in your case it was the browser Wink

ok, clear answer.
But i see now i was not very clear with my question.
The dump of log came from router not being connected with a miner, so my question was about the cgminer version only Smiley
Sorry about me being not very clear.
Do not worry Smiley
it is just a stupid txt file located in file system
/etc/hexminer_version or something
techno bit guy's probably forgot to update it also during build Wink
just look what screen tells you dude. That is always correct Cheesy
if there were HEX3 options inside the web you are golden...

Sorry about me being not very clear.

Ok, i did an upgrade: same version of cgminer
did an full upgrade (factory version of .bin file), same result.
Both without keeping the settings.

just upgraded the router to 0.3.2 as you showed it is newest version.
But after upgrade i see this

[Firmware Version] => 20140329
cgminer: 4_1_0_5ed45a0
Socket connect failed: Connection refused

What happend? Should i upgrade again? not with upgrade file but with factory file?


mm, they are not absolete for me, managing to buy used ones for 30 euros or less, so i am starting to stack them now Smiley



You need to fill in Hex3A3 Chip Count (Default: 16), Hex3A3 Chip Frequency (Default: 7000), Hex3A3 Chip Core Voltage mV (Default: 750), Hex3A3 Enable or Disable Chips (Default: 255) with their default value which is blank right now  Wink
Or upgrade without keeping settings  Wink
defaults are inside image. However if you do upgrade wile keeping settings do as zich suggested.

In general after each upgrade while keeping stings check the cgminer web and make sure there are no blanks there for all HEX* stuff

* cgminer bug fixes:HEXa frequent HEXa usb disconnects, fast work queue restart and so on
Having frequent hexa disconnects indeed, was already wondering why Smiley

Another question: having also a HEXc, it does run at 20 GHs when using 1500/1100 mv, but when using 1600/1160 it does run aprox 23.3 GHs, is this normal behaviour?
with 1500/1100 3 chips are not really doing fine (staying behind, can see this in tplink router log), but when using 1600/1160 they hardly stay behind.

I guess chip number 3 is dead. If you run 1600/1160 for more long period, i bet that chip 3 will stop working.

I am also had 1 dead chip. I already try many higher setting but that's only work for short period.

* HEX3A3 --hexminer3-options 16:7000 16 is chip count per board and 7000 is desired speed per chip in Mh/s. 7000 equals to 7G per chip.
* cgminer patch to cgminer 4.2.3 rev e574114682fe1edc344b7e291eb9d9497d26ef92.patch
* cgminer bug fixes:HEXa frequent HEXa usb disconnects, fast work queue restart and so on
