Re: [Setup & Troubleshoot] Bitmain AntMiner S1 180GH/S miner
...
Thank you so much for suggesting the above, and I have applied the above settings. But for some reason I am still running into problems.
Here is the current setup:
My Miner Configuration on website 192.168.1.99 has the following details:
Pool 1 192.168.2.99
Pool1 worker fredtheduck (this is my username for BitMinter)
My IPV4 settings are currently set at "Obtain an IP Address Automatically".
If I set
Use the following IP address: 192.168.2.254
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.2.1
Then I lose my connection to the Internet (which is via cable).
The setup currently is I have Ethernet cable running from Antminer to Router, and a cable running from Router to Ethernet port in Computer.
Am I missing something here? Is it because My IPV4 settings are currently set at "Obtain an IP Address Automatically" ? But if I change this, I lose my connection to the internet?
I will be up all night wanting to fix this, and any help is much appreciated

If you can get to your miner's webpage by using http://192.168.1.99 then leave the IPV4 settings on "Obtain an IP Address Automatically" as the network is working.
Go to the Network -> Diagnostics page and click on the Ping button below the box with openwrt.org in it. It should come back with the important line towards the bottom
--- openwrt.org ping statistics ---
5 packets transmitted, 5 packets received, 0% packet loss
How many packets received do you get?
I cannot get to my miner's webpage by using http://192.168.1.99 with the current IPV4 settings on "Obtain an IP Address Automatically".
I have to change my IPV4 settings to the below
Use the following IP address: 192.168.2.254
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.2.1
Would you like me to change my IPV4 settings so that I can access my Network -> Diagnostics page to find out how many packets I have received?
Secondly: it looks like your PC and router network is on: 192.168.2.254, so you are going to have to change the IPV4 of your PC ip to 192.168.1.254 in order to access your miner. When you do this you'll lose connection to your router, but plug the ant straight into your pc via lan cable. Now open the browser and access you miner on 192.168.1.99 and change the ip of the miner to 192.168.2.99, save and reboot and plug it into the router. Now go back to your PC and change the IPV4 back to 192.168.2.254 and ou should be able to access internet again and you'll be able to access your miner on 192.168.2.254
Note: the number I have bolded has to be the same on the miner and the router network or the miner cannot access the internet.
Good luck!
P.S. another quicker way to go about it would be to leave your PC IPV4 on "obtain ip automatically" and change the network your router uses and assigns so use 192.168.1.[0-254] and then everything ill work automatically with the default ant settings.
