The teaser
Code:
root@Neptune:~# cat /var/run/.waas_curfreq
-1 -1 -1 -1 500 500 550 500 500 500 525 525 500 500 550 500 475 500 525 500 475 525 500 525


I must have done something wrong?  As I cannot set it to 525.

As by your posts, I modified 'vi /config/advanced.conf' then did 'waas'. 
Doing this I have success in modifying the voltage, and I can modify the frequency as well... but when ever I try 525 instead of 475 or 500 the 'waas' will not accept it (500 is maximum).

How did you get 525 ?


I took a look at the waas source on github and there is a check for max frequency set at 500. You'd either need to edit and build this utility (and I wouldn't be surprised if that's what tolip did) or you can probably use the same trick that worked for the Jupiters and reset the clock before starting cgminer.
