Yes my miners have been slowly losing hash rate until they shut down completely on CM.  So I switched to ipominer, CINNI and they had problems with cinni servers and again my miners shutdown, but never switched to backup.  So down all day.   Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

So I switched back to CM and gridseeds shutdown again.   Not sure what is going on?

I had a day when all my gridseeds shut down at once.  I did "this and that" and they finally started up.
I left the house, came back.  Again they all shut down.

Long story short, I finally concluded that plugging my phone into a port on the front of the computer that runs my mining software was what caused it.

Pardon me for not qualifying what "this and that" includes,  nor detailing what mining software I am using and etc.  I tied a knot in the cable that I was using to charge my phone so I would recognize it and never use it again (but I kept it in case I wanted to prove it was the culprit).

...I use a USB mapping utility called UsbTreeView, and on its diagram the port where my phone was plugged in, it showed a yellow "i" indicating a problem. 

I am not suggesting that your telephone is causing your problem, but rather I am encouraging you to maybe look elsewhere besides the gridseeds and power supply, as I had to do.


A prime example of what we techie people hate.  You try everything under the sun to get something working again, and it winds up being the thing that can't possibly have anything to do with it.

Hey, I hear you.

Let me say that I worked as an electronics technician for 17 years, and no matter how smart you are about diagnosing, you are also lucky any time you get it right.  (Like putting in golf...)

I control some lights in my house using X10 controllers.  Lightning struck a tree outside my house.  Afterwards, I could remotely turn the kitchen light off (which is what I always want to do), but I could not turn it on.  I replaced the switch module, and the receiver, and used a different hand unit.  Tried different house and device codes, no joy.  The one night, suddenly, the light turned ITSELF on!  I tried my hand unit right away, and sure enough, I could now turn the light on, and I could turn it off.  But it continues to turn itself on from time to time, several times a day.
