I'm starting the process to send some broken boards from 17 series miners to a repair place in Canada, I'll keep you posted how it goes.

I'm looking for somewhere in Canada as well.  Can you send me details of who you are using and any info on how it's going?

Ledger nano S stuck with logo flashing

Hi. I’m not sure if I’m posting this in the correct spot but just wondering if anyone would know why my new ledger nano s is flashing the ledger logo. It’s never been initialized and is like this out of the box. I have the most updated ledger live and USB drivers etc (windows 10-64 bit) .  If I hold the left button it will change to boot loader but after what looks like a successful reset or anything else I try on ledger manager it just goes back to the flashing logo. I do have an older nano s that works fine on the system.  I’m not having much luck with a response from ledger support so thought I’d try here.

Re: How do I combine small transactions in a ledger wallet

I agree with TryNinja and ranochigo, i just wanted to add it would be a good idear for the OP to use electrum for this procedure. It gives you better controll over your fee and lets you select with unspent outputs to use as an input. I like ledger's GUI, but it's less ideal when you want to have more controll over the transaction you're creating.


That is certainly the best option

take a look at Electrum UI:

https://bitcoinelectrum.com/files/2019/09/coins-tab.jpg

You can choose exactly which input you want to spend and consolidate them. It also allows you a better control over your privacy, because if you just consolidate all of your inputs all your addresses will be linked together.

It is also interesting to note that Electrum is a recommend wallet by ledger team, and is fully supported:
https://support.ledger.com/hc/en-us/articles/115005161925-Set-up-and-use-Electrum

Also, you might want to take a look here at this thread by LoyceV, where he explains why you should consolidate your inputs.
[Aug 2020] Fees are low, use this opportunity to Consolidate your small inputs!

Thanks so much this is awesome.  I'm not familiar with the eletrum UI so this was a great help!  That's the way I'm going to do it, just have to wait for the fees to drop and pick which ones to combine.  Smiley

Thanks everyone.  All great info!  I'll try these suggestions and I guess I'll pool small transactions outside of ledger in the future.

How do I combine small transactions in a ledger wallet

Hi.  I have my BTC stored on ledger.  Most incoming transactions have been smaller ones from my mining pool.  When i tried to send my BTC out however the transaction fee was $129 USD as I assume all the small incoming transactions creates alot of input/outputs driving up the fee.  Is there some way I can combine the balance in my ledger account so that it sends as a regular transaction with normal BTC fees?

Ledger Live shows the balance I was expecting but I can't see the new address anywhere in Live.  How would i access the address it doesn't seem linked to my Live app or my BTC account directly.

OK thanks for the reply.  Is there anyway to reverse that or recover the funds in that instance?

Unauthorized BTC transaction from Ledger Nano x

Hi.

Looking for some help. Yesterday I received my Ledger nano x from Ledger.  I opened the box which didn't seem tapered with at all, setup the device and recovered the wallet to it so it's the same as my existing nano s.  I then sent a test transaction for $1.00 worth of BTC to my Coinomi wallet.  The transaction all looked legit and went through fine,  fees and all it was a little over $3.00 worth of BTC 0.0004 and change.  Ledger live shows the transaction fine in the history and my ledger live balance updated to show the balance minus the funds I sent. 

However when I check blockchain explorer the transaction ID shows and additional 0.057 BTC sent from my wallet address in the same TX to an unknown bitcoin address.  My balance on blockchain explorer shows a different amount than on ledger live even after ledger live has synchronized.  On blockchain explorer the extra 0.57 BTC has been deducted from my balance but in ledger live it has it been.    So in sending a $1.00 BTC transfer i lost over $450 from my wallet.  Again I didn't send the 0.057 BTC, I checked the transaction id fees etc on the ledger before authorizing and everything seemed legit.  Does any one have any idea what's happening?  Is my ledger possibly hacked?  I"m scared to move any remaining funds as I don't want to lose more.

S9j sold and en route to KEBKR other miners are still for sale.

Received the miner.  Everything was perfect, great communication and very helpful throughout the whole process.  If anyone else is thinking of buying my went very smoothly and I wouldn’t hesitate to do it again. Thanks again!

OK well how much for S9J and can you ship to Canada? I can ship to your location from here for about $40 so thinking it should be the same for you in reverse.

Re: Antminer cannot connect through a netgear 3G/LTE modem

Yes the modem itself can assign DHCP as a router or you can set it to bridge mode which turns this feature off.  I've tried both ways and also tried the miner to DHCP and Static.  Neither of these work. I have the home ethernet connected to the WAN port and the miner to the LAN. The pass through works with a laptop but unplug it from the laptop and into the miner and nothing.  I'll pick up a cheap router as suggested and try that between the modem and the miner just in case.



I tried hooking a cheap router after the LTE modem and so far it seems to be working.  So thanks for that suggestion!  Fingers crossed the failover works as well as I  haven't had a chance to test that yet.  

So in case anyone else tries a similar design, to reiterate my setup is:
A wired connection from my main home router to the LTE Netgear LB2120 Modem into the WAN port.  Then from the Lan port on the 2120 i go to a cheap Dlink router and then on to the antminer.  I have the antminer set to DHCP (not static) with the auto assign DHCP tuned on in the settings of the cheap router.  The 2120 is set to bridge mode and this seems to be working. So now when there's an internet outage the 2120 should auto switch to LTE and the antminers stay connected until the hardwired connection is back online and it will then switch back from LTE to the hardwired connection.

Thanks again everyone for the help.  Cheers!

First question do you know the mining gear works?

Bring one unit to a friends house and see if it connects.

Yes it works fine as it is just a passthrough device so if i plug the ethernet cable into the miner directly from the home ISP it connects and hashes immediately. Plug the cable from the home ISP into the LTE modem and then onto a laptop that works fine, but plug it into the miner and nothing.

Antminer cannot connect through a netgear 3G/LTE modem

I have a netgear LB2120 3G/LTE modem.  The modem has a failover switch built in so if the wired internet connection goes down it switches to cellular. I tried connecting my antminers (as well as just one antminer, S9i, L3+, L3++, DR3,) to the modem but for some reason they wont detect an internet connection and will not connect.  I tried connecting the modem to a powered switch and then to the antminer and still no go.  If i plug a laptop in it works fine.  Does anyone know why this may be happening? 

When the antminer is plugged in the lights indicating an ethernet connection are not even lit up but again use the same cable to plug in a laptop and everything works perfect.  I've also tried setting the modem in bridge mode and changing the miner to a static ip etc.  Nothing seems to work as it just doesn't recognize the connection.  Any help is appreciated!

Antminer through a VPN

on 24/10/2018, 01:01:52 UTC
Hi.  The mining pool I was using has been blocked by my ISP.  I tried buying a USB to Ethernet adapter and bridges the connection with the existing connection and then connected to a VPN.  While webpages seem to be shielded the miner still won’t connect to the pool.  It’s connects fine to an alternate pool however. It’s also not the pool itself as a family member has miners in another location connecting to the same pool fine. Any suggestions would be great. I’m mining on an Antminer S9i.

Re: Bitmain launches the new AntMiner DR3 (Decred ASIC Miner)

on 17/10/2018, 01:18:32 UTC
Yes but I’m not talking about Hw errors showing in the Hw column, my boards are showing some “x” instead of O. Same thing even at 400 frequency so I’m thinking some of the chips are damaged.

About 2 or 3 ships show as "x" on 2 of my boards after and hour or so. The hashrate does not go down by much though. So I'm just letting it be.

What frequency are you mining on?

I received my miner yesterday. I was hoping to overclock but even at the stock 410 I’m getting chip errors on the second and 3rd boards. I contacted bitmain support and their solution is to reduce to 400 and restart several times.  Even if I get the chip errors they say it’s ok as long as it’s stable and no further action is needed. What a load of BS. Brand new unit, ROI is already down the crapper and it can’t even run at the stock frequency.

Some HW errors are normal, but if it's visible affecting the hashrate keep bugging them until they replace the board.
