Hit a roadblock, I am using Verizon FIOS internet, the router use a static IP 192.168.1.1 with subnet 255.255.255.0.
There's no way of changing router IP, nor can I change subnet to 255.255.254.0 to cover 192.168.2.xx.
Look like the new batch S1 of IP 192.168.2.99 caused Verizon FIOS customer a lots of troubles.
Router from my last Cable Company is easier to change. All with older batch S1 on 192.168.1.xx is luckier.
Direct cable connection can only works for 192.168.1.xx ONLY?
What's now, buy a new router to add 192.168.2.1 network?
I don't want to intrude in the middle, but if you want to try the steps below:
- 1. Connect the Antminer to your router/switch via cable
- 2. On a computer (laptop/PC) that is connected to the same router/switch (via cable or wifi), change the IP address of the computer to 192.168.2.55 subnet mask 255.255.255.0 gateway doesn't matter
- 3. Connect to the Antminer web url 192.168.2.99 and make changes
- 4. Change Antminer to 192.168.1.188 mask 255.255.255.0, gateway 192.168.1.1, custom dns 8.8.8.8
- 5. Make sure you save and apply above and wait for it to finish, sometimes needs reboot after
- 6. Put the computer on step 2 to normal settings (probably automatic DHCP)
- 7. Access Antminer web url 192.168.1.188 and set pool info
I configured both of my Antminer S1's from factory via wifi on my laptop (dell mini 9 netbook). I've never directly connected to either of my Antminer to a laptop/computer.
Good luck.
