Can confirm mine still does this too

Noticed today that my Full Node keeps mining after the internet connection is lost. Was this not resolved on the latest update?

I’ve had a full unit since august and it’s worked great without any issues. Recently I got a standard unit (batch 3) to connect to my full unit. I can get the standard unit mining for about 10 minutes and then it goes to inactive status. Then I have to power it off and on then restart mining to get it to start again. But it only will mine for a few minutes again before going inactive. The full unit continues mining without any issues. The red light on the standard unit has the slow red blinking light like it’s mining but it’s showing inactive in the dashboard. I’m running apollo web v0.3.2
Any ideas what the problem could be?

Hmm, yeah I've been having the same exact problem for a while. I was hoping this most recent update would fix it, but looks like I'm still having the same issue. I have 1 full unit and 2 standard units, for some reason all 3 of them wont stay hashing at the same time and one of them will drop off after a while. It's always just one that drops off and they all keep blinking the slow pattern.
Do the yellow lights on the bottom continue to flash? The mean the board is still hashing but something is up with the USB connection. You can also try connecting the standard units to a USB hub and trying different USB ports. If a power reset/SD card re-flash does not solve it with latest firmware you can alway contact support and well take care of you.

my apollo btc units were working fine on my preferred pool until today when suddenly it is rejecting most of the shares for 'low difficulty'.
spoke with several friends on the same mining pool with same units and they all have the same problem... scratching our heads why suddenly today this is a problem

Is this gorilla pool? Admin is in contact with us about it. Issue seems to be isolated with just their pool so could be some weird config issue on their end.
Can't wait for GP to be back fully operating with these units.

Yes my miner has been running none stop for months now with room temperature under 40f.
I hope the next release will add the second line for pool configuration. It hurts my bottom line when the main pool is down and miner can't mine a additional one.

I just like to say my two miners are running rock solid and I'm also using wireless with no issues. Both run issue free and only restart when I choose to. I know some say an auto-restart would be nice but I've not seen the need. I will say the second miner I ordered has a error rate of 2.4% while my first is only 0.3% but performance seems ok and the error rate goes down if I run in balanced mode

Can this be done on the command line?
How do i use comman line?And plz another question: What should i do with the Node Dashboard? At the end its like a rudimentar Bitcoin Wallet like from Bitcoin.org?
Gr€€tz Biosman
First thing, you should open 8333 TCP port in your router and point it to 192.168.1.16. Until you do that, it's not full bitcoin node, it's restricted from accepting connections from other nodes.

If you want to disable your WiFi interface: ifconfig wlan0 down
or to disable your Ethernet: ifconfig eth0 down
Note: the commands are not boot resistant.

@jstefanop: This can't be correct:
Because one of the Miner ist always on LAN, an when i connect to LAN or Wifi IP Adress, there is always this "internal message error"

Yea internal error usually has to do with no network connection, so your wifi is probably not connecting. Make sure you connecting to 2.4GHz network instead of 5 for better range

This is because both interfaces are left "on" by the linux system when you use both LAN and wifi... the Web UI does not know how to deal with that currently. You need to log into the system via a monitor, and turn off the interface you are not using (drop down on the upper right corner of the desktop).

Yes!!!! Now I wait download the blockchain and then start to mine.... 
You can still mine something even though the download isn't finished. Remember to run it on eco mode while downloading the blockchain to keep the temperature of the controller CPU down.
Once the blockchain is synced then go for balanced or turbo mode.

got 2 apollo btc units today. one is working perfectly, the second one the fan spins up but the LED in front never turns on and its never detected by usb. any ideas? thanks
Is the second unit a full unit or a “slave” unit?
they are both standard units, plugged into a pc via usb. 3 total standard units plugged into this computer, 1 I already had and the 2 new ones that showed up today. one of which I can't get the LED to turn on no matter if usb is plugged,unplugged and any psu i try. Just the fan spins
