Is there an easy way to schedule auto restarts on these things? Be it restarting cgminer or rebooting the Avalon I dont really care. One of them was hasing away at 3ghs (yes, 3GHS) this morning. Another quit at 3AM. I reset both of them when I woke up and one of them later decided to hash at 8ghs.

These things are currently exposed to outside Dallas temps (high 50's mid 60's today) and get down to the upper 30's at night. I doubt its an ambient temp thing. The highest temp within the web interface is around 47c.

Thanks for the help guys!

The more I play with these things the clearer it is to me that they are junk. I've got two Avalons that I have to manually restart cgminer on about every 4 hours otherwise their hash rates drop to under 100 mhs. As soon as I restart cgminer they go back to their advertised speeds. Also while they are running slow the web interface is SUPER choppy.

Is there a way to force cgminer to restart itself every 6 hours or so?

Oh, all hardwired not wi-fi.

I guess I'm not totally surprised that they are shit.

you can give this a try:

1. log in to your miner via it's IP address.

2. go to the 'system' tab.

3. click in to the 'scheduled tasks' tab.

4. under the existing commands paste these commands in.

0 */4 * * * /etc/init.d/cgminer restart

0 20 * * * /sbin/reboot

5. what this does: have the device restart CGminer every 4 hrs (change the '4' value according to the frequency you desire) & have the device do a full reboot every 20 hrs (change the '20' value according to the frequency you desire).

please let me if this has helped you - this has fixed a lot of my issues with my minis (i have 6).

You already asked the same question and it was already answered.

I must have missed the question being answered. Thanks for reposting it.
