I have a bitcoin shed with these pdus powering bunch of antminer s9 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0007YG85A/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

and want to add gpu mining for ethereum with this psu https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00MMLUIE8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1   

the pdu's c13 plugs are 8 amp and c19 12amp. will the 8 amp be enough?

You need a jump starter bridge something like this

Mining will never touch your latency. I tested 5 antminer s9 doing solo and it still didn't touch my 6mbps at&t uverse. Something else is going on with either router or modem.

I have 10 out of 10 miners with two different batches having the same thing with the latest firmware. I was working on them for days(which was over $200 lost) trying different techniques and had no luck. I highly doubt that bitmain would just send me 10 miners broken so it's definitely the firmware.

Re: Unique S5 Antminer problem

I reset the miner, and tried the IP button, but still no luck.  I still think there's something wrong with my laptop not wanting to share the internet connection, or interface with the miner.  If the internet wasn't working for the miner then it would beep like it has before correct?  It isn't beeping anymore which leads me to believe it's hooked up correctly, but then why wouldn't the IP address show up?
Edit: Actually it is beeping after about 5 minutes, it wasn't doing that up until today.
have you tried connecting anything to the ethernet port to see if you're at least getting connectivity?

How would you go about connecting to the miner then?  Just scan the 192.168.0.x subnet for the miner?  Any applications or ways to do that?  Thank you sir.

you can use ip reporter for this https://enshop.bitmain.com/support.htm?pid=00720160906053730999PVD2K0vz0693

click start and hold down the ip button on the miner for 5 secs or so

What seems to be happening is all you did was give the miner a static ip but didn't tell the router to keep it static so the router just gave it a new ip while the miner thinks it's still on the old ip address. You're gonna have to hold the reset button on the miner and it will restore it's settings.

for future people that will have this issue :
your dhcp probably got changed, refresh your router's page or download this https://enshop.bitmain.com/support.htm?pid=00720160906053730999PVD2K0vz0693     make sure your computer is connected to the same router that the machines are connected to in order to use that program. click the big start button then hold the ip check button on front of the miner(which should be the only button you can press) for about 5 to 8 seconds then an ip address page will appear. If you're still getting this problem then get a paperclip and hold down the reset button I'd say for 10 secs max.

Re: throttling issue with s9 farm

I don't think you want to run that many miners on wifi connections. wifi is really not the solution for any sizable deployment.

You mentioned your restrictions with distance, so how about this:
1. Setup WIFI router A at your internet access point
2. Setup WIFI router B to be the common access point for all your miners in your mining area
3. Setup router B to be a hotspot or repeater of A
4. If distance between A and B is an issue, throw a few boosters / repeaters in between to cover your dead spots. They are cheap from BestBuy, etc.

This reduces the number of connections to your WIFI broadcasting signals and technically should allow your WIFI router to better prioritize its traffic.

It may be the wireless with that distance,
So either get a extender and more cord.

Or I've heard of setting up a PC to act as a pool for your miner's which is then tied to a pool.
Never tried it. But then you are effectively only pushing one signal to the house.

Other option may be a bigger wireless repeater.

But wired is the way to go! Likely to many packets of similar info for it to handle..

Please learn to not ask for help then treat those trying to help like an asshole?

As I HAD SAID the other option is a proxy setup, so you only have one outward pointing stratum proxy server.
Or find a wireless provider and get better bandwidth, OR find a hosting company and mail your shit out.

You're the only one who's being an over sensitive asshole that can't read. I even stated I used a vpn. You're not even being helpful, you're just being what is known as a troll.

Well I managed to get 200ft to the shed with 5e. Connected to the switch and still same issue. I messed with this for 3 days straight. I kept messing with firewall settings all day and even made sure that the modem firewall wasn't protecting anything. Turned my asus repeater back into a router and that still didn't help. I used both my ethernet port of the modem and ddwrt router.

Using wireless "may" not be your problem, but I would definitely use wired Ethernet if it was available. Too many variables trying to mine over a wireless connection.
Just my .02.
Best of luck in solving your problem! Smiley

EDIT: Just as a test, if you are able, hook all your machines via wire and see what happens.


I will have to get a 500ft cord to my shed.

You mention wireless network and a wifi router. You arent trying to run these on wifi are you?

Yes I have an asus RT-n12 as a repeater connected my main asus ac3100 router. The asus RT-n12 is using 9dbi antennas instead of stock.

throttling issue with s9 farm
by
I can break these cuffs
on 30/11/2016, 21:56:38 UTC
So I was running 5 s9s for a while with no issue till I decided to get 5 more. When they first were shipped and setup 4 out 5 of the new ones started having low hash rate issues almost as if one or two hashboards wouldn't work but all the boards are lit up. After months of constant diagnostics I've noticed that the super low hash rate issues kept on moving from one miner to another and after discovering the issue i'm being throttled. If I have more than 6 miners hooked up then the remaining after 6 miners will have very very low hash rates most would have only one board working even though all boards light up. Since I am with at&t uverse and discovered that there was reported bitcoin mining issues with them in the past I decided to install ddwrt on my asus ac3100 which did nothing. After that (what I thought to be an obvious fix) I added an openvpn to the router and that didn't fix it. I'm so far all out of options here. I can't use the latest firmware because anything from about 2 months to now I will get connection refused on every miner I install the new firmware with. I am using an asus RT-n12 for my wireless network. I did try using two different connections and still same issue.

Re: bitcoin prices jump to $600+ in...

Definitely a few weeks or so before it starts. If it doesn't happen and stays where it is then miners will be turning their systems off and the halving disaster we all feared for will begin. Creating a halving for the 25mil bitcoin limit while there is over 100mil wallets isn't really a lot of bitcoin which means we need to be going up in storage capacity, not slowing it down.

Nah i don't think so. The effect of the halving is zero like it was zero last time. Zero in the way it don't affect the price. For bitcoin standards the halving itself is an important thing.

The reason why it was zero last halving was because people were still making decent money off of mining and were still able to support themselves. When this halving happens their profits will be in the negative which will force them to turn off their machines which results in a slower network that will cause people to get angry over and not use bitcoin. That will then cause the price to drop even lower to were our last resort Chinese miners can't even run and will be forced to turn them off as well before they go bankrupt. That's what a halving disaster means.

1BTC a year isn't hard at all. Look into gpu mining for ethereum. You can sell that for bitcoin easily.

I'm gonna start using 5 s7 in the garage that has stable temps and was wondering if anyone has had any bad experience while using power over ethernet? I used to use it for gamign all the time and had very decent pings compared to wifi so shouldn't be that bad right?
