I would suggest no one buy this piece of trash right now. Set to a static IP and then lose access to a 600 dollar investment. Now I realize it's a toy but imagine you set your Android phone to use a static IP and then you couldn't access it without rooting and all that BS.

Then imagine the links the company gives you are just files and no instructions or anything. I can't wait for samsung to drive these hacks out of business.

Does anyone have instructions. There are 3 different firmware downloads for the v9 on their site and none of them are the same. It's been sitting here a week n a half and I am just about ready to file a chargeback and throw it in the dumpster. Completely insane.

Do I need to use the diskimager program and write the s2s4 image? It would appear so as that is in their tools and instructions downloads but who knows.

Yes, burn the SD with the V9 image that is on that page and put it in the sd slot on the miner.
It should get a DHCP address and you can go from there.

The failing when setting to static seems to be a bit random. I have done many with no issues.
Some people have had 1 or 2 not work.
