When you setup the fixed address, did you do it at your router by mac address, or on the S3?

EDIT: Never mind... I re-read what you wrote.  Since you included the comment about setting up the DHCP server, you obviously didn't just put a static IP in the S3.  Duh... sorry about the stupid question back at you.

Yes by MAC @ your router..

Well after 5 hours of testing all I have to say is BLAH!!  Overclocking even with 4 PCI-e connections does little.

218.75 Clock:

miner 1 / 444.95 @ Miner / 463.36 @ Pool
miner 2 / 427.78 @ Miner / 432.18 @ Pool
miner 3 / 443.52 @ Miner / 454.49 @ Pool
miner 4 / 410.05 @ Miner / 410.58 @ Pool  --- Indicates 1 chip as " - "
miner 5 / 427.41 @ Miner / 413.85 @ Pool

250 Clock:

miner 6 / 464.32 @ Miner / 479.65 @ Pool  --- Indicates 1 chip as " x "
miner 7 / 450.27 @ Miner / 417.84 @ Pool

will continue to mess with timeouts to see if anything works as for now not getting a stable 441 GH/s, but on a few. ;(

Hope B2 is better!



I hear ya.  I left mine at 250 overnight and checked when I woke up a few minutes ago.  One miner had a "-", the other had 2 "x".  The one with a "-" only averaged 387GH/s from the miner stats, and pool stats (my local p2pool node) showed just about the same.  The one with 2 "x" did better.  It showed an average hash rate of 454GH/s on the miner and about 450 on my node.

I've set them back to stock clocks and will see where I am in 8 hours or so.

By the way, I'm driving the S3s on an EVGA G2 1300 with 4 PCI-e connections to each miner.
