I appreciate your help Dogie. You are genuinely trying to help
But
1. Bitmain should not be sending us broken miners.
2. If indeed something went wrong, Bitmain must acknowledge their mistake and do the needful. They didnot even post a firmware on their website or methods that you describe on their website to fix the problem.
3, They indeed finally post a manual for C1 which does not even show a full picture of how it would look like when operational with cooling kit, whereas they should provide instructions to the last detail to do so.
4, If this is not disappointing enough then let me explain more. I have to run the miner at 212.5 (853 ghs) to keep the miner little quiet. Else it makes as much sound as S3, despite the cooling kit fully operational.
5. The website stops working intermittently or when the temperature rises.
6. I made it work by changing the conf file using ssh and reducing frequency.
7. Website home page still doesn't work, one has to switch to confirguration page to see access the site
http://192.168.1.99/cgi-bin/minerConfiguration.cgiWell I am pretty disappointed by this miner so far. Wish I had just bought a few more S3's instead, so far the best of all
or
I should have had waited for second batch to not be the scapegoat in loosing my nights trying to make a DOA machine work.
Good luck newbies, I would suggest wait for the second batch which will have all issues ironed out
I had the problem with SD card so I can understand your frustration. I was one to upload image from my second C1 miner in case others needed it hoping to make it easier on you.
Mine both are working great and quiet. I also am lucky that it's winter weather outside on temperature. I am able to get over 1T on each and all the temps in the 30's.
One thing about your speed they were shipped with default of 250 frequency. If you run at 212.5 you will not hit 1T. You will have lower electricity, and quieter, but effects speed greatly.
