I switched to the slush proxy, and it stays up for between one and three days at a time now. But then it will still *click* and shut itself off, requiring a manual toggling of the power.
[edit] I'm using the slush proxy with the -rt option to relay the vardiff changes along to the cube directly. I'm not sure if that may be one of the reasons it stays up longer this way; back with the bfgminer proxy it would do the diff filtering on the miner software rather than the cube (I think... if I am wrong here please anyone feel free to correct me)
My cube came in today and it's acting a little weird. It'll go for about 6 1/2 minutes then the MH/s will slowly start to drop. BFGminer then declares it sick after 60 seconds of no response then it will come back. Doesn't matter what the clock is set to and besides this it looks good with no X's for any of the ASIC's. I tried replacing the cheap fuse it came with but that didn't seem to solve it either. Power supply is a Cooler Master i600 which claims 48A on the +12v rail and from my research that should be fine.
Ok so I found a workaround for my resetting problem. On a hunch I changed the pool address in my cube to something that doesn't exist and noticed that it reset itself in about 2.5 minutes. This told me that it wasn't a hardware issue since it hadn't been hashing. After further experimentation I decided to try running BFGMiner on 2 different machines with the same --http-port parameter and set my pools to be the IP's of the 2 machines running BFGMiner on my LAN (192.168.210.29,192.168.210.46). Both BFGMiner instances are connecting to the same pool (ghash.io) and using the same worker ID. So far that seems to solve my problem and the cube uses the first BFGMiner pool for about 7 minutes then switches to the other. Another 7 minutes later is switches back to the first pool and on and on. This wasn't a problem for me since both of these computers are running all the time anyway.
Anyway hope this might help someone. I saw another post here in the hardware section but I can't post this there since i'm too new but if anyone would like to share this in that thread please do.
