Did you power cycle the miner after you pressed the reset button?
Yes, three times already, waiting even several minutes before switching on again. Ping to 192.168.1.99 says, host is not available.
I managed to see control panel of the miner twice. It was during first several seconds after turning the miner (connected directly to laptop with Ethernet cable). However, I did not finish changing the pool address etc.
easiest way:
1) connect your computer and the antminer with an ethernet cable
2) set your pc's ipv4 settings to an address 192.168.2.1
3) you should now be able to scan for and/or go to the antminer's ip address, change the settings on it for 192.168.1.XXX, reboot, and reconnect everything the way it was before
I think I have diagnosed my problem (but do not have solution).
I connect the laptop with antminer with Ethernet cable directly. Set up a computer:
IP Address: 192.168.2.254
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.2.1
Antminer's ID is from the sticker: 192.168.2.085. So after turning antminer on, I put 192.168.2.85 to the address bar of the browser. Then, I can see Luci for several seconds (log in with root/root). Just only to see some basic things there (like the pool addresses of the person who used it before me), because there is no enough time to do anything more (like switch the miner to my pool). Why?
I noticed that every time the ant's fan starts working, the connection between computer and the miner disappears (computer says, the network cable is unplugged - although it is not true
).
I use Silentium Deus G1 600W 80BR (it was advised to me here in PM; the previous PSU I bought had too little yellow lines). I crossed the cables on 24-pin (i.e. green with black) connection correctly. Connect PSU with miner using 2 separate 6-pin cables (yellow to yellow, black to black). (I have tried to use one cable (Y-style), but without any changes to my situation). I did not have cut the cables, because there were convenient 6-pin sockets in the antminer.
The miner is cold (normal room temperature). I even checked what happens if I disconnect ant's fan from the board - nothing changed (I still could not get access to Luci). When the fan stops, then the connection restores for a few moments, until it starts working again. When I powered only one blade (the one with LAN socket) I could see LuCI for about 2 minutes (until fan started working again).
Thus, I suppose there is problem with powering my miner. Hence, I think about two options:
a) sell antminer to sb (in Warsaw - any offers?)
b) buy another PSU.
How do you think?
