How do you switch between pools? Also , is there an easier way to do that and add more pools? Maybe remote?

Yes there is a easier way, like using multiminer. But the current firmware with cgminer (3.4.5) has a bug so itwont let you connect to a proxy between the miner and the pool. This is fixed in cgminer 3.9 but then the firmware needs to be updated.

You can read more about this bug here:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.4087361

You can try compiling a new cgminer from source (https://github.com/bitmaintech/cgminer) because this has the special bitmain settings but i had a problem that it keep referring to a USB device (the U1 miner). So i have to wait untill Bitmain or Sushi comes in and releases a new firmware that dont have this cgminer bug... I hope they release it ASAP because i dont want to login into my AntMiner everytime to change pools....

HELP PLZ!!!!

Agreed. Bitmain, update cgminer in your firmware. Please! Being able to use these with a proxy would be very helpful.

Yes please, need this update asap Sad

sushi, How do I change multipool strategy? I like to try some of them (balance, rotate..).

can I just edit /etc/config/cgminer or possible cgminer-api command?
I try some but all failed.

u might need to hack /etc/init.d/cgminer

thanks for the hint, seems the only workaround here. Wink

working good.

and hit the S2 button for more than 3 seconds.

First, do not do it 3 seconds, but at least 10 seconds. Second, after you have done that, power down your unit and power it back on. Search for 192.168.1.99

Hey guys I have an issue with an antminer I just got in the mail. I plugged it in and was able to get to its ip (192.168.2.179). I changed some dhcp settings and wasn't able to get it working, so I thought I would do a reset through the antminer's webpage. It said something about redoing partitions, router will reboot when done. However, after 20-25 mins, it didn't make any progress.

I saw on the github pdf that with a 2nd version control board, you just need to power the machine on and hit the S2 button for more than 3 seconds. I have done this a couple times, restarting the miner after those, but I can't see it on my network anywhere.

Am I out of luck with this machine, or is there something more I can do here without having to send it back?

Thanks.

IIRC, the latest ants ip changes 192.168.1.99 (maybe 192.168.2.99) after they're reset.

you can already switch or add pools using the cgminer api.
edit /etc/config/cgminer

original

Code:

option api_allow 'W:127.0.0.1'

change to

Code:

option api_allow 'W:127.0.0.1,W:192.168.x.xxx'

change "192.168.x.xxx" to the ip of your desktop or whatever computer u wanna control from... and then restart cgminer...

What software are you using to remote control the api with?

here is my "software"

Code:

import socket, json

def cgminer_cmd(m, cmd):
    sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
    sock.connect((m, 4028))
    sock.send(bytearray(json.dumps(cmd), 'utf-8'))
    result = ''
    chunk = sock.recv(64)
    while (len(chunk) != 0):
        result = result + str(chunk)
        chunk = sock.recv(64)
    sock.close()
    return result[0:-1]

if __name__ == "__main__":
    print cgminer_cmd("192.168.x.xx", {"command": "switchpool", "parameter": "1"})

hey guys... is this a display bug or what ?

P.S.
I have 2 antMiners running, hence the hash rate, both looking the same

1 of mine was showing all x's yesterday but seeming to submit a full hashrate. i rebooted it and now its o's again (same hashrate)

I find (ghash.io) similar results as you. 200-205GH at the miner GUI but 205-215GH each at the pool based on 24hr average.

i know but i don't want change the pools on the miner self, i have coded a stratum pool switcher for this based on coinwarz api and it was not my idea to let this dedi manage api calls on the antminer... Wink

maybe after Christmas i have time to look if i can find a way to let my Ant's get managed by api from outside my lan. Still this dont fixes the bug in cgminer....

I wish the firmware would display the true hardware error rate so we don't have to run any calculations.

Agreed, perhaps that can add it when they update the firmware to fix the cgminer small nonce2 problem that generates extra HW errors.

EDIT: If they fix the firmware.

I read, but i saw that you make circle around the hashing rate at eligius, so i was wondering what you missed? Everything run well? Huh

The asic status must to be a display bug, as you can see on the real hashing rate. Probably you can fix this but if you turn off the miner for at least 20-30 sec and start again. If you change the mining pools, this error appear sometime.

That appears on mine as well after hashing for a couple of days. As you say the OP's pool stats are good and the error rate is 1.1% so I would not get too concerned.
