Check and replace that power supply as I've heard of this before.If the fans spin up then stop it's a sign of insufficient power.Try this to rule out a faulty miner.If it still does it with a new PSU,the miner needs to be replaced.If it works after changing the PSU,then it's the PSU that's at fault not the miner.

If this helps/fixes the issue,send me that tip of £25 via my paypal.Thanks

I have the same problem but i cant get them to mine , can you send the skype of your china supplier , im about to go to china and kill mine. Thank you

You look good to go.  Congrats.

Hi ok guys thanks for the support i think its sorted, the supplier in china helped me by logging in on teamviewer im not exactly sure what he did but he did mention something to do with my bt home hub and its ip not being changeable like most routers.  I asked him what was wrong and he said didnt know but the units up and hashing now.  And has been for 5 or so hours.

Its still not setup on dhcp its on stati ip the fatory assigned one actually
 
He also played about with the chip frequency and i noticed its not got a target temperature in there now either.

Ive attached some screen shots of how its setup up now hopefully that may shed some light on it and what was wrong with my network setup in the miners back end as it would be nice to know where i was going wrong.

How do you think its performing?  

So when you change your settings on the Avalon to DHCP....  you are unable to access your miner?

Your router should just assign it a new address automatically and you should be able to log in, provided that you are on the same subnet.

Look for your list of devices and get the ip address after switching to DHCP on the Avalon.

Since you have reset back to stock, now just set it up for DHCP/your pool settings and go for a Save and Apply.

Once the machine applies those settings you should be good with a "new" ip address on your Avalon.

You must go get that address from your router to view in your browser.

So remember that 192.168.0.100 is going to disappear once you hit save and apply.....then get the new address from your router after the settings have been changed.

You can do it.

and remember to change all the network settings to fit your network as you did before... gateway subnet mask DNS etc.

Badabing, listen to Studio....


OK so you want to go to DHCP

in the network page where you changed to DHCP there is a tickbox at the bottom which is ticked by default

it is called

Disable DHCP

go back to DHCP settings instead of fixed IP

and UNTICK THE BOX


also remember

you MUST go to system startup and stop CGMiner before editing the configuration or it will not take the configuration you put in.

OK

plug into your PC, no router

change your PC IPv4 back to

192.168.0.123

scan

192.168.0.1 to 192.268.0.255



ok back into it by ethenet direct into computer its on 192.168.0.100  so it seems the reset i did by hitting the button on the w305 has took it back to stock settings throughout.

OK

plug into your PC, no router

change your PC IPv4 back to

192.168.0.123

scan

192.168.0.1 to 192.268.0.255

and if no luck

change your IPv4 to

192.168.1.123

scan

192.168.1.1 to 192.168.255


post results up here.

Ive just also scanned with ip scan from 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.1.254  and it doesnt show up anywhere.

Ok ive brought up a command prompt pinged the miner at the ip it was assigned 192.168.1.139 and it responded back yet when i type 192.168.1.139 into my browser i can get into it.  (DHCP is now off on the miner btw)  And its since i switched the dhcp off  and assigned it a static ip that i cant get back into the backend

Ive also tried holding down the reset button on the wr305n router the light then flashes really fast and if it a open up a command prompt and ping it at 192.168.1.0 it does again respond yet once i put that it my browser nothing comes up either.

Its really got me now as i just cannot get the login screen up to get into the open wrt backend at all.  

try connecting direct from your PC again with an ethernet cable

Did you remember to go into starup and stop CGminer before changing the config?

did you untick disable DHCP as well as changing it from static IP to DHCP?

Does anyone know which range i should searching for in ip scanner to try to find it?

Could i find it by plugging it straight into my laptop by ethenet?  if so what should i change my laptops lan ethnet ip4`s ip address to?  (is it something similar in range) like 192.168.1.123 ?



Failing that im thinking of hitting the rest button on the wrt305 but how do i go about finding it then does it resort to a default ip?

Okl managed to get straight in this morning on the ip i assinged it 192.168.1.139 even though dhcp was on?

but really struggling with this now tried all of the below:-

tried changing pool to bt guild made no difference still got the error in cgi status which wont seem to clear regardless of reboot, restarting cgi miner etc
tried removing the wifi and just using the lan ethenet interface - no difference
tried changing chip frequency to 256 p- no difference
tried changing miner count to ten - no difference

The unit is totally sinlent todasy where as yestreday after the reset it was making some noise ,  then it hashed for 8 minutes and now im back to square 1.



And ive just tried changing it from dhcp back to static by entering the details as below and now it wont let me in at all again on the 192.168.1.139.  My next plan was to factory reset by the back end again to see if i could get rid of the error as it seemed to have disappeared after resetting it last time but now i can get into it at all again now?

The settings i entered when taking the dhcp off are as follows:-
