* 0.3.8
* cgminer for hex BTC Miners - patch to cgminer 4.5.0 rev_07c57008cfae8e210248394c90645bb920895b7f.patch
* cgminer for hex Scrypt Miners - patch to cgminer 4.5.0 srev_07c57008cfae8e210248394c90645bb920895b7f.patch
* cgminer - Please configure pool worker difficulty for best results and less rejects. Work pool updates and pool diff changes are handled properly. The pool paid shares should be increased with 1-2% hopefully. This hack is not tested with pool load balance mode. In case you mine in load balance mode make sure to setup pool worker difficulty.
* scgminer - Pending sync with cgminer rejects optimizations
* openwrt updated to r41917

New TP-link image and cgminer patch

http://technobit.eu/0_3_6.rar

* 0.3.6
* cgminer for hex BTC Miners - patch to cgminer 4.4.2 rev_45dbbb4cac091e41b0123fd211b6293436921681.patch
* cgminer for hex Scrypt Miners - patch to cgminer 4.4.2 srev_45dbbb4cac091e41b0123fd211b6293436921681.patch
* (s)cgminer A lot of dead/debug code has been removed and some optimizations were made. This image is not tested with HEXA and HEXC (Avalon 1 and Avalon 2) boards. Please be ready to downgrade if something is not working with HEXA and HEXC!
* openwrt updated to r41679
* BE200 (HEXE) options
* --hexminerbe200-options - asic_count:freq - default 16:300
* --hexminerbe200-asic-diff (default 0) - Allowed values are: 0 - diff 1, 1 diff 64, 2 diff 4096 and 3 diff 262144. Use 0 or 1 only. When using 1 make sure --hexminerbe200-nonce-timeout-secs is at least 120 secs! And your pool worker is configured properly, otherwise you are loosing hashes!
* --hexminerbe200-skip-hw-res (default 1) - Do not reset chips log only instead. Before enabling it make sure you your config is ok and it is not too aggressive
* --hexminerbe200-pic-roll (default 60 or 90) - BE200 PIC work internal roll count - Reduces dramatically USB load - range 0-255. Please use at least 10 or 20 here
* --hexminerbe200-hw-err-res (default 10) - reset chip due to N consecutive HW errors.
* --hexminerbe200-nonce-timeout-secs (default 5) - reset chip due to 0 nonces returned nonces returned for last N seconds.
* --hexminerbe200-chip-mask (default ffff Enable all chips) - Hex value to enable or disable chips
* --hexminerbe200-voltage (Default: 860)

I'm getting just one of the minion boards at the moment but will get more, I never considered going down pi route when I have a pc on 24/7 why get another device.
Tplink is 5wats what about your PC Wink 200-300W?

Will the tp-link run any other hardware I have a rockminer and some u1's connected to the pc.
No, but a raspi would. However, it does take a little bit of linux knowledge to set that up.

The specific tplink image (only?) supports all miners from technobit, providing a very elegant solution.

It is only 3.5W as I last checked Wink

But yes, it is stupid to have it on your 200W computer XD

Thank you Zich! The one thing I was not getting is the boards do not need an ethernet connection. Thats what was throwing me off. Basically I only need 5 extra ports on my existing switch which is a 48 port so I don't need any switchs at all. Correct?


You are welcome  Smiley.
That's correct, only TL-MR3020 need LAN connection. Miner to TL-MR3020 using USB connection.
TL-MR3020 is your little PC running on linux.

So how do we get the tp-link to run of the same power supply as the miner.
Get 5V from PSU Molex to power USb HUB. Then both USB cables from tplink should be connected to that HUB Wink
BTW what boards and how many do you plan to connect to a single tplink?
And sorehammer  forget about PI Wink
It is sharing same interrupts for Ethernet with USb by HW design so in general PI is not good for heavy usb I/O  Grin

 I am starting to see what the tplink actually does. (I think)

 Marto said he is making a guide as well but this diagram helped tremendously.

What psu are yo going to use?
As I said you need 1000w for each two boards or so..

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.7769550

 I am adding the 240v connections. I just need to figure out how many circuits and what amperage each. Anyone have any recommendations on this? basically 25-26k watts.

OFC you will need PSU to powered the miner  Roll Eyes

Ok, so to confirm.. I can run the 5 tp-links all off the same switch. I do not need a separate switch for each 10 boards correct?
Wrong you need 5 separate switches or USB hubs for each tplink. However you can use one LAN switch to connect Ethernet cables


 Ok, let's see if I am getting it now...

So i have 50 boards, split that into 10 segments. So with that said I have 10 boards, those 10 boards will all connect to a PSU for power. Then the 10 will go to a 10 port USB Hub connected to a TP-Link. The tplink and all boards can then be hooked up by ethernet to a large switch. Basically all 50 boards, and all tplinks go directly to a switch. Is this correct? Perhaps if Marto or someone else posted a definitive guide. I have a ton of stuff to order.
That is correct except segment count 10 segments with 10 boards each equals 100 boards Wink

Does this image work with the TL-703N or those old wiibox controllers from Gridseed?
Most probably no...
