Hi all,
A n00b to crypto mining that got a Dragonmint T1 off ebay, mostly to try out mining and to learn a bit, seems like it should be more fun than just buying crypro. however I do think i should have bought an S9!
Thanks to Biffa i have advanced the firmware a bit

not sure if the original was a hacked one or just original but was pretty primitive and would not connect to nicehash (yeh i know, but as i said new and shiny and just learning and its SUPPOSED to be easy right?)  or show version numbers and fan ran at 100% all the time which was painful.
While things have improved its still not connecting, is the T1 just obsolete now and won't connect? do i need a diffrent pool?

I tried Braiins, but they no longer support the T1 and i haven't been able to work out if there is an old version that will still work and if there is where to actually find it.
Assume i am doing something simple wrong but struggling so far.

I got an old laptop mining (waste of electricity but proof of concept to me) so not compleatly useless but at a loss to this one... any bright ideals?
