Thanks for the replies, i`ll give the google method a try!

I`ve just flashed the Ants with the latest firmware and so far, both units are doing 443 gh\s (2 hours in).

Even the one which would only do 420-430gh\s before.  So, it can`t just be the beeping that they changed?

What version of CGMiner is it now running?

cgminer   3.12.0-1

Is it possible to update Cgminer outside of the Bitmain firmware updates?

I thought I remembered this coming up with the S1's and the answer was yes.  I do find it odd that my S1's are runnig cgminer 3.8.5-1 and the 3's are still on 3.12.0-1.  I have updated the firmware on two units but I can't even find anywhere on the software page that any versions are different.

I do have one unit clocked at 237.5 that seems to like it...
1 hour average 475Ghs  WU 6639 but my Accepted and Discarded seem off, as others have reported.  I am also not registering any best share on any of my six S3's but I know they are working because my earnings are in line with the estimates for how much I am throwing.

Still waiting for Bitmain to process my refund as well.

There is about 5hrs. until the next difficulty jump.  I like how the estimate has been steadily coming down for the last two days.  We could see another jump in the 6-7% range which would be awesome.

Happy hashing all.
