my hex8a2 has been working perfectly for a while. now suddenly hash rate drops to 0 for a few mins, then restarts but is wildly inconsistent. im running tp-link and have tried another one with latest build, different psu but still see same behavior. any ideas what i could try?
try to switch the pool first
+100
And examine internet pool connection also regularly

swapped pools and get exactly same error. i have a few miners on same internet connection and same pool and all are fine apart from this one. not sure what else to try now?
Disable cron and tell us what is your pool worker diff
A cron job restarts scgminer when you are not submitting shares to pool every 5 mins or so
Do screen -r ltc and post the output when it stops. Remove quiet option also
  Do you have other script miners hooked up to same account worker? Do you remember if you have changed something before this begun to happen?are the board fans ok?
Have you changed them?

All ways have the pool page open so that's a given.

Well my tp-link is here, flashed with your new image set the pools and now need the minion Smiley

Not long after DPD arrived with the 4 new Arctic 7 coolers been a good day just need UK customs to release the damn psu without charges Smiley
Setup tz in the web ssh and exec fix_rc script-disables a lot of crap on startup which is not needed
Check yor cron jobs also and remove scrypt line there and then you will be 100% ready Wink
In case you have more than one board ordered choose a USB hub wisely. It is always a good idea to use hub in between even if one board can be hooked d directly. Tplink atheros chipset does not like USB 1.0 much
Finally take 5 v for tplink from psu and throw away stock adapter. If you can use common ground and power all boards plus tplink plus USB hub from single psu go for it. That is the best approach
Set your workers to  min diff like 128 or 256 to reduce rejects while  pool is adjusting your difficulty on startup

New TP-link image and cgminer patch

http://technobit.eu/0_3_6.rar

* 0.3.6
* cgminer for hex BTC Miners - patch to cgminer 4.4.2 rev_45dbbb4cac091e41b0123fd211b6293436921681.patch
* cgminer for hex Scrypt Miners - patch to cgminer 4.4.2 srev_45dbbb4cac091e41b0123fd211b6293436921681.patch
* (s)cgminer A lot of dead/debug code has been removed and some optimizations were made. This image is not tested with HEXA and HEXC (Avalon 1 and Avalon 2) boards. Please be ready to downgrade if something is not working with HEXA and HEXC!
* openwrt updated to r41679
* BE200 (HEXE) options
* --hexminerbe200-options - asic_count:freq - default 16:300
* --hexminerbe200-asic-diff (default 0) - Allowed values are: 0 - diff 1, 1 diff 64, 2 diff 4096 and 3 diff 262144. Use 0 or 1 only. When using 1 make sure --hexminerbe200-nonce-timeout-secs is at least 120 secs! And your pool worker is configured properly, otherwise you are loosing hashes!
* --hexminerbe200-skip-hw-res (default 1) - Do not reset chips log only instead. Before enabling it make sure you your config is ok and it is not too aggressive
* --hexminerbe200-pic-roll (default 60 or 90) - BE200 PIC work internal roll count - Reduces dramatically USB load - range 0-255. Please use at least 10 or 20 here
* --hexminerbe200-hw-err-res (default 10) - reset chip due to N consecutive HW errors.
* --hexminerbe200-nonce-timeout-secs (default 5) - reset chip due to 0 nonces returned nonces returned for last N seconds.
* --hexminerbe200-chip-mask (default ffff Enable all chips) - Hex value to enable or disable chips
* --hexminerbe200-voltage (Default: 860)

So just to be clear does the minon board come with stand offs to raise it up ?
Yes

Will there be or is there already a windows install guide for the coming minion chip boards, one that is understandable for people that only made batch files for bfgminer before, with directions for driver install, cgminer set up, etc?

hi Wink
Hi to you! Are you working on one?

Will there be or is there already a windows install guide for the coming minion chip boards, one that is understandable for people that only made batch files for bfgminer before, with directions for driver install, cgminer set up, etc?

None available yet that support minion. But you can monitor it here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/cgminer-windows-build-for-technobits-boards-569689
Thanks, clears things up a lot.

Marto, what's the debugging protocol for a HEX8A1 which won't mine. Mines actually been idle for a few weeks it seems. Powered, power LED is on, fans are on and its detected by the WRT. I've tried every form of restart there is.

It seems you do not have 12 V on the board.
Check the psu and if it is ok
Just send it for repair/replacement.
Most probably protection blown

Do the HEX4M come with USB cables? Just need to know if I should order some.

None of technobit miner come with USB cable. So you will need to buy locally or order it from technobit.
