PLEASE HELP!

after 2 days of troubleshooting this I'm finally at the dashboard and see all my 10 miners but they are all OFFLINE and I can't get them to hash at all. Huh

I have setup the scrypt pool and filled in stuff on the SHA-256 as well and left the enabled button unchecked (I just want to mine scrypt anyway)

I tried doing the steps from worldlybedouin listed below with no luck as well...

1. Unplug power cable from TP-Link controller
2. Turn off the USB hub switch (or unplug the hub from the controller)
3. Remove all the USB cables from the hub except 1 of them
4. Plug in the TP-Links power cable
5. Allow the controller to start up and "settle" a bit (~2mins or so)
6. Make sure the controller dashboard shows no devices connected and says something about connecting a USB hub
7. Flip the power switch on the USB hub so now the 1 miner is connected to the controller
8. REfresh the Dashboard to see the 1 miner show up
9. Wait to let that 1 miner start hashing away
10. Next, plug in the remaining miners 1 by 1...about 1 min apart from each other

I got to Step 9 where it says to wait to let that 1 miner start hashing away for about 5 minutes before I pressed the submit and restart button and nothing still happens.

Here is a picture of the system log..

I ALSO noticed that when I add the worker name and try and hit submit and restart the worker name doesn't add next to the LTC Miner name. For instance I have 1 miner plugged and the name says LTC Miner 1:3; if I put down "laminer.1" as my worker name and hit submit and restart, it won't show up in ( ) next to LTC Miner 1:3 like it should be like LTC Miner 1:3 (laminer.1)

When I enabled the SHA-256 box and put in a worker name for it and hit submit and restart, that actually showed up in ( ) next to the name, for instance BTC miner (laminer.1) and it says it was RUNNING! but not the LTC Miner :/

Any help would be very deeply appreciated as I don't know what else to do, Please help Lightning Asic community! Your my only hope!

UPDATE: I think i made some progress. you have to keep unchecking the enable button and re-enable on both scrypt and sha-256 and I FINALLY got a running status now for the miner I have hooked up now. Now to get it to start hashing and hopefully it will and I can finally get this setup and then I can pay it forward and help other people out.

I'm afraid to even refresh the dashboard, because last time i did the miner went back offline and the worker name wasn't associated with the miner anymore. I don't see it hashing yet but heard it takes a bit to warm up so hopefully that is it.

Goin to pass out now since it's 5am, but if anyone has any suggestions please let me know and thanks for helping.

Here's how far I'm at right now I just can't get it to hash yet and if I refresh the dashboard or come back to it the miner is back offline.

I do all this but they just wont start hashing :/

I added the protocol prefix but no luck

Received units with controller yesterday, they hashed for about 6 hours, and then went offline, haven't been able to get them to work since.

Same issue here. The LTC worker information never gets entered into the Miner Status section (seems to be the tell-tale sign), and the controller remains borked. I've tried checking and unchecking the LTC and BTC miner working information and resubmitting, re-powering, re-plugging into hub/no-hub, rebooting in various combinations, all to no avail Sad

I've tried compiling gridseed's minerd posted on github https://github.com/gridseed/usb-miner/tree/master/software/cpuminer, scripta's cgminer, and all have the same issue where they appear to be mining (they seem to be getting work) but not submitting shares. Any idea how to fix?

@teekan - you said:

did you actually verify that you were able to bring them back this way?? I'll keep clicking on those enable checkboxes, but so far, no luck :/

UPDATE: i unplugged it all and let it chill for a bit, then fired up just the controller, let it run for a few mins and settle, and had LTC-only mining enabled, then plugged in 1 'orb' to the controller (no hub) and the controller found the device(!), with the worker ID, and it says it's "Running" unfortunately, it's not, as it has speed of 0 Kh/s and 0/0 accepted. changing values in the worker config messes it back up tho (with the missing worker text in the status area) still can't make it hash :/
