Re: Official FutureBit Apollo BTC Software/Image and Support thread
Just set up my miner and it’s fully synced, but it won’t stay online. I keep thinking it has to be an issue with how I’m entering the pool info, but it’s pretty straightforward. The light in front is solid red for the most part but occasionally blinks fast and back to solid. I’m using Braiins Pool (or attempting to…). Any help/idea on what I’m doing wrong?
Thanks!!
Thanks!!
Have you tried any other pools?
I know that the FutureBit Apollo doesn't supoort Asicboost, and there is some sort of requirement for it in the Stratum V1-V2 proxy software they devopled. What I don't know is if they are using the proxy at
I'd try another standard pool, maybe kano or ckpool or viabtc and see if it works there.
I just signed up for Kano and input the pool and username info, but still the same issue where the Pools section shows an inactive status. When I first turned on the unit, it wouldn't stay online but kept going on and offline. I flashed the drive and didn't do the ubuntu update and it then showed the hashboard as active. I haven't flashed the NVME to re-download the blockchain but could that at all impact connecting to any pool?
Thank you for the suggestion!! I feel lost and like there's awkwardly no support so I appreciate it.
