I just got a router. everything is plug in correctly. I am able the login to the new router using the its IP address. but when I login to the new router the IP address for the antminers are not listed. I really don't know what to do or whats going on.
What is the IP address of the new router?  Things need to match.  For example, if your old setup was working properly and you had never changed anything, it is very likely your old modem/router was providing addresses to your hardware in the 192.168.0.XX range.  The S3 uses this same range, so everything would have just worked happily.  If you're having problems now, it's very likely the new router from the new ISP is using a different IP range, so it can't see those S3s (which are still using the old 192.168.0.XX address).

I asked some questions above.  I really wonder if he has a all in one type modem from ISP.  He had a modem and I think it's a slim chance he had a Ethernet cord coming to just one device from a modem.

OP did you have wireless when just had your "modem"?   On you "modem" does it have ethernet spots on the back for more then one?

Just trying to see if it's all in one device or truly just a plain modem.
Since he replied that he's just moved and these miners were working properly before, I can't imagine he initially went through the problem of setting them up wirelessly.  Yes, the S3 will work wirelessly if you set it up, I posted about it last year when they were released.  However, chances are he hasn't gone into the S3 config to change things around to use the wireless.

So, the scenario is far more likely that his new ISP, with the new modem/router isn't using the same 192.168.0.XX address his old one was.

I'm not disagreeing I would agree most likely he had a different IP set being sent out then his old place.

I in no way meant to set them up wireless.   I'm asking if OP had wireless as I have a feeling his "modem" is a all in one with wireless, ports, etc.   But I could be wrong and he has a plain modem and pluged it to one computer until today getting a router, I just am doubting it.

I was going to try to help OP get his S3 connected to his "modem" if it was a all in one modem/router like I have it is.   And that router would not be needed as it was all in one from ISP.  But my feeling turns out to be wrong then I will try to help him connect it to router.    

Just trying to see more about his network setup.
