Hello everyone, So i am new to mining i'll start of with that.. I just purchased 2 cubes and need some help to set them up. Am used to just plug n play with usb since i had BFL products and never required doing extra work. I know i need a power supply thats strong enough to support both cubes on HIGH clock mode. Any recommendations? also i have a raspberri pi i would use before can i still put this to use in any way with my new cubes?

U can run 2 cubes on a Corsair TX850 PSU. Raspberry Pi works well. I use Minepeon. Just use the --http-port option in bfgminer and point your Cubes to the IP address/port # for the Pi. Should be a piece of cake.

Would the corsair TX850 PSU support both cubes on the HIGH clock setting?

If i can use the Raspberry Pi (already running Minepeon) do i connect both miners via usb or through the Ethernet port on the Pi. I currently have the Pi configured to run wirelessly off my wifi connection.

The TX850 can run 2 at high clock rate. I have about dozen Cubes set up this way.

Do not connect a USB cable to the Cube - the USB port on the Cube is not for mining.

To run Cubes on Minepeon, make sure to point the Cube to the IP address of the Raspberry Pi by putting its IP address (usually 192.168.1.25) in the "Pool Address" field on the Cube GUI. Note the port # on the Cube GUI (default is 8330). The username and password field on the Cube GUI could be anything - doesn't matter, as the Pool setting are all specified on the Minepeon Setting page. Since I have several Cubes running, I specify a unique username so that I can identify which cube stats I'm looking at when I SSH into the Minepeon and view the bfgminer miner stats.

In Minepeon I use the following command line:

/usr/bin/screen -dmS miner /opt/minepeon/bin/bfgminer --http-port 8330 -S noauto -c /opt/minepeon/etc/miner.conf

This command line should work if the Cube Port Port is set to 8330 and you don't have any other (non-Proxy) miners running on the Minepeon. If you remove the -S noauto option, you should be able to mine with your USB miners, etc.

Assuming you have your Pool information correct in Minepeon, you should be able to see your Cube hashing away on the Minepeon status page or in bfgminer if you SSH into the Raspberry Pi

Hope this helps! If this works for you, I would gladly accept a belated Christmas present from you. Grin

since my Raspberry is already connected wireless to the internet is their a way to just get a ethernet splitter plug the splitter into my pi and connect my cubes via ethernet to the ethernet splitter on the pi and afterwards point the cubes to my pi's IP?

I don't think this is possible. If you don't have a way to connect to wired ethernet, you could use a Wireless bridge like this:
