It's been running great for a few days now and then I restarted them again and this time it's just blinking green and i can't get to the web interface. What does blinking green mean? Is there somewhere that tells what the blinking patterns mean?
EDIT: Self Answered.
I found a post that had what the lights mean. Supposedly slow green blink means bfminer is connected but that's not the case. The issue for me was that my router wasn't handing it an ip address because i've had some issues with the DHCP server on it. Once I rebooted the router and then rebooted the Apollo all was fine.

Hi,
I notice difference at fan settings from batch 1 to batch 2.
I have 2 Apollo batch 1, they have both the fan fixed at 10%, about 1800 RPM.
I also have 2 Apollo batch 2, both with fans at 20 % about 1500 RPM.
Is this correct? Maybe different fans each batch, maybe a software bug?

Yes Batch 1 fans were 6k RPM fans which were overkill, Batch 2 Fans are 5k RPM which allows them to be even quieter on ECO mode.

Everything seems to be working ok now. It's almost like it need to "warm up". Odd
Thats a pool issue. What pool are you running on? Hashrate displayed is an average, so what's going on is that your pool is causing the miner to spit out a lot of errors when if first connects (most likely due to it being a mutipool and/or starting off the miner with way to low of a diff), then when is starts to mine fine the average slowly starts to go up.

The same here after 6 days stopped, first hours hardware errors start high but decrease to normality.

Did you change anything on the pool? Sounds like a temporary pool error. Try rebooting it and see if it keeps doing the same thing (and check Litecoinpool.org to rule out pool issues if you running on a different pool). If that doesn't work try an SD card re-flash.
I did reboot several times and also checked different pools and all had the same problem. After running for a few hours it has gotten better but still is only hacking at 90 MH/s with still 5% hardware errors.
I have a batch 1 that was running fine. I had to go out of town for a few weeks so I turned it off. When I turned it back on today it's getting 50% hardware errors only hashing about 30 MH/s on eco mode i've also tried other modes with more or less the same results. The miner temp on auto is 62C and the MCU temp is 62C. I actually have 2 and my other one is working just find. What can I do to fix this?

Just a quick reminder to give the apollo a dust once in a while. I've given it a good blast with compressed air after running for about 6 months, as I noticed it was a little furred up (only a bit, I have brushed the dust out before).Temps have dropped from 78 to 69, so its worth doing.
FYI @patrik was nice enough to add Apollo support to Awesome miner for whoever uses that!
Very interesting feature - can you please share a quick sert up for making the Apollos and Awesome miner work together?Thanks in advance!

i can't get my miner to connect to the wifi, it's like right next to the router.
I have an Apple airport extreme model, lastest generation (6th generation).
does anyone have an apple router and connected it with success to WIFi

Ive ran it on an old Airport express fine. Its probably not connecting due to your router being in mixed mode for SSID and/or compatable mode for encryptions. To minimize all issues have a separate SSID for 2.4ghz thats only straight b/g, and WPA2 only.
I'm getting the same problem others mentioned here:
Has anyone had a problem with your Apollo miner not coming online?? I can connect to the dashboard but cant get the miner to start. The miner powers up and then a solid red light. Mined for a day before this happened.
I followed steps to see if i can fix it like setting fan to 25% and only having one pool (litecoinpool) setup. The miner keeps saying Miner is Offline, try to start it and keeps coming back to that screen once i click the Start button. This miner got delivered today with PSU and micro SD card. What can i do?

Help!!!
I got my apollo and its working great. The issue I have is it keeps giving me this error message:
It seems there is a problem to communicate with the miner, check error message.
SyntaxError: Unexpected token in JSON at position 2131
I have no idea what it means and it no matter what I do it will not go away. I have restarted and rebooted the machine to no effect.
It is hashing fine but I cant get to the dashboard anymore.
Any thoughts?
Thanks

hmm thats weird, this is what your seeing when your navigating to the Apollo IP address on a web browser?
Have you tried accessing it through a difference device (smartphone browsers, another computer etc). Could be a local machine issue, but if its causing it on all of them then sounds like a corrupted SD card (just follow the instructions on first post to re-image your card).
So what is everyone mining besides LTC?
Picking up some alts using prohashing pool, so its generically scrypt mining and you pick your payout type. Right now, I have payouts setup with 5% ADA and 95% LTC. Gotta rebuild my LTC and figured I could leak 5% towards ADA for a while.
Looks like it's working! Or atleast it seems like it. How do o change my worker default password made on litecoinpool.org
You should just be able to type in a new one and hit save. And then don’t forget to update the pool information on the Apollo dashboard.
And DFW too!
Why is it not letting me private message you?
Looks like both our accounts are too new to send the other a message without opting in to allow messages from noObies.
