wow very impressive Cool hope you dont mind me asking a few questions  Grin

are you running that off the raspberry pi in the lower picture? and if so how are you configuring the USB? (something like PI>>un-powered hub>>powered hubs/ants?)

also did you have to do the resistor swaps to get the speed above 2Gh/s?

and did you have to direct wire the hubs? and chance of a link to the info or pic  Grin

thanks in advance  Grin

Yes, its running on/with raspberry. I not configured USB, I used the Minepeon-Image and only updated bfgminer on 3.10.0. So far I not touched resistors. The Hubs are connected through a fifth HUB with 4 ports with usual USB-Cables, Power-Connection for HUBs I soldered directly on the HUB-Boards on the original Power-Connector.

Can i ask why you soldered the wires instead of use the original connectors?

also where did you solder too?, i have been googling and i cannot find a guide or and pics etc  Sad

This is the PDF of the U1 help.  Solder to the highlighted areas.  The 10K (upper) resistor is empty, so just solder in a new one.  The other one (just below it) needs to be removed then resoldered.  Everything is surface mounted.
