Are you sure you didn't lose connection to the pool for whatever reason? Because that will also happen if its not hashing, meaning no connection to pool. If it happens again see if it is hashing. I would venture to guess its not a fan problem.
I just had my ant start beeping at me and everything was up ok in the console. I looked over and the front fan had stopped. I rebooted and it was still stopped so I unplugged it and plugged it back in and it's happily spinning again.
should I replace the fan?

You need to use a recent cgminerhttps://github.com/kanoi/cgminer-binaries/tree/master/AntS1
(bitmain's "cgminer" in the S1 and the S2 is ... very old)
Then it will use the bitcoind getblocktemplate when it connects solo to bitcoind, however it needs the --btc-address option to know where to pay.
Kano, with that driver, would you still recommend running the /0+diff option with p2pool or do you think the s1 is happy to work with it at default. Also my discarded have gone very very high Accepted 504 v discarded 14123. pool hash speed looks ok, should I be worried?
"Accepted" is usually confused to mean something it does not mean.
"Difficulty Accepted" is usually what people are looking for.
the +diff option is only useful if p2pool is assigning a lower work difficulty than you want to your ant - don't forget to give it a while to correct
"Discarded" is the amount of unused work so doesn't represent anything with regards to anything but CPU usage.
This is high due to the ridiculously high bitmain default --queue 9999 in their init script
Great, thanks for clearing that up.

Please Help.
I have a solo mining network set up at home. BFG, SG, and Cminier, all connect up fine with there various devices across the network and start hashing. When I connect my Ant s1, the s1's "getworks" total goes through the roof. I am new to mining and s1's but not to networking and the request rate to me is out of hand...The s1 net throughput is crazy also because of all the work requests, about 10mb a min.
Is this normal when solo mining? Here is a pic of the s1's stats"
Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance for your time.

you need to use stratum..
are their any guides to solo mining the s1
I did not find a guide for the s1's, but here is a great 3 part tutorial https://www.youtube.com/user/whatthefluxable/videos on setting up MPOS over Stratum_Mining. The directory structure for MPOS had changed since the video posting, so I banged my head for a bit. When sorted whatthefluxable over at YouTube threw in some annotations with proper "paths" so the tutorial is right
Please Help.

Thanks, I was pretty sure that was the answer, but wanted to confirm before spending the effort. Well it paid off, it took my Windows trained arse seven frellin' days but it is up and running and I have found some stones already too.
So thanks again for the push!
Help one of my blades always dies:
- I need to factory reset it for it to start working again.
- Sometimes shows no xxx's, sometimes 1 x and other times all xxxx's
- I have the latest firmware.
- out of my 12 s1's only one with problem so I swapped PSUs and same problem.
- It runs fine for about 24 hours and has the lowest hw error % of all my miners so that is odd.
- Don't see any errors in the log files but not sure what to look for.
I guess next step is to measure voltage and ohms unless anybody has some ideas.

How are the temps for that one blade? Did you make sure the hex screws securing the heatsink on that side are secure (usually I had to tighten them on each new S1 I received)?
Check for dust/fuzz buildup on the heatsink on the intake fan side. Do you have an exhaust fan installed or are you just using the default intake fan?

Have you tried to reset the device by pressing the little black button on the controller by chance?
If you don't have one, than you need to jump some pins and there is a pic of it posted in the thread iirc.

yes, I have read it and to be honest it's quite difficult 
I'm pretty sure the guide is just to enter the failsafe mode, not reviving the entire antminer firmware. Right now, I have yet to enter the failsafe mode.

Hi,
recently tried to update the latest firmware from bitmain support. I waited closed to 10 minutes during the flashing process, but the luci web ui did not showed up (the user login/password stuff) as it should be.
During the flashing and now, I noticed the LAN port LED (rx tx), only the green LED is working but it blinks in 5 secs interval then off, on and off.
now I cannot ping or communicate at all to the miner.
Any ways to revive than control board? I think the firmware files from bitmain was corrupted.
1st the files from bitmain are not corrupted, I just recently flashed in the last week and it worked as intended.recently tried to update the latest firmware from bitmain support.

2nd, go to the openwrt website and read up on how to unbrick a router.
It's probably above your payscale though.

Is there any way to get a faster turn around time when changing the miner configuration (what pools it is using)? It seems to take 2-3 minutes and that all seems quite unnecessary.
Just click "Save&Apply" a second time, it should start hashing a few seconds after that.
Anyone ever have issues with setting the S1 for pool rotation and it skipping pools?
The one pool I had issues with I had other miners working fine on.
Seems odd they would keep submitting but the S1 skipped it on it's round and went to the
next pool specified.

What is the general consensus on turning the wifi on and using it on the S1's or leaving it off?
I tried running it and it went from 1.2's to 4's load avg and than stopped responding/seemed to lock up.
wouldn't respond to the static IP or the wifi dhcp assigned IP.
So does wireless work?
Or just stay wired and use a wireless bridge if I must go wireless?
Also what is considered acceptable for discarded shares? The discarded shares are beating the accepted.
I could go wireless but have decided against it as my network is not 100% reliable. It's probably just my network or my equipment, but I don't want to rely on it. I can totally rely on my wired network. I tried running it and it went from 1.2's to 4's load avg and than stopped responding/seemed to lock up.

Hi people!
I need ONE Antminer S1 0.15 BTC Coupon. Could you please check your account?
Would donate 7 S2 coupons ($400 off each) and 4 S1 coupons (0.05 BTC off) for it!
PM me! Thank you!
