Had similar issue with a Baikal G28 - it was a firewall issue (AIProtection on an Asus router, specifically) - but the way the miner/sgminer behave, it makes you think it's a hardware issue "No devices found" - when in actuality it's a networking issue between the stratum host / pool and the miner.

Anyone else think that Jihan is possibly friedcat?  Or that bitfountain and Bitmain are related?

So once all the March coupons expire tonight, then there will be miners again for sale on Bitmain's site, is that the deal?  Everything but the DR5 is sold out still, only hours until all those coupons expire.

Re: Bitmain Announces the Antminer R4 and APW5 Power Supply, Designed for Silence

That is the ASICBoost FW from Bitmain. However, if you are not on the other listed firmware:

Antminer-R4-all-201704280718-autofreq-user-Update2UBI-NF.tar.gz

The update will not work. The update listed above changes the file system to UBI or something like that which is necessary for the AB firmware to be compatible as it uses a UBI filesystem but does not contain the necessary files to changeover the existing filesystem.

So if I have a stock R4, the steps would be to first install the Antminer-R4-all-201704280718-autofreq-user-Update2UBI-NF.tar.gz fw, then the Antminer-R4-xilinx-201811121649-autofreq-user-UBI-NF.tar.gz fw. Is that correct?

Are you running the latest, ASICboost enabled firmware?  My R4 would drop a board often enough, and rebooting usually got it back up and running, but after updating the firmware to the latest it runs better and hasn't dropped a board yet.
HTH


Is this firmware Antminer-R4-xilinx-201811121649-autofreq-user-UBI-NF.tar.gz the one with ASICboost enabled, or is it another one?

How many amp do you have access to, and how much is a KwH there?  My poor house's 100A feed is maxed.

Just in case anyone hasn't figured it out, it is definitely a scam. I ordered a couple of months ago. Before the ship date the website went down for updates showing a counter until the "new" website was finished, Now the website is down.

thanks for posting this confirmation.

Are you able to charge the Powerwalls with grid power, or only with Solar generated power?  Also, does the Wind turbine plug into the same Inverter as the solar panels?

The company will release a variety of Bitcoin miners during Q3-Q4 quarters.

Presume that's Q3/4 of this year (2018) right?  Seeing as we're now in Q3 - any idea when we'll know more on your product offerings?

thanks!

Did Bitmain ever release a 2nd (or Nth) batch of the R4?  It seems there was just that initial batch and... no mas.

Can you elaborate on this bit, any?

http://[quote author=FDR-CoreTeam link=topic=4930081.msg44415350#msg44415350 date=1534779521] FDC will be an addition to FDR, and each holder of FDR will be given some FDC (ration tbc).[/quote]

Is that "given some FDC" an air-drop, ie, a 1-time thing? Or some kind of NEO/GAS=type generation thing, or?

vive le français!

Re: Solar array starting to look good.
by

on 04/07/2018, 17:51:59 UTC
from what I understand;  its because you have a solar system.

if you have just a powerwall;  the grid is allowed to feed it.  If not;  it must only receive feed from the solar system to charge; not from a grid-tied feed.

Similar to the reasoning grid-tied systems can't be connected if the grid end gets disconnected (an outage).  So no back feed can injure a lineman.  It just all has to do with the fact that there are requirements for solar systems that are absolute and can not be changed.  Especially in California.

As i understand it, there are folks in Australia (and elsewhere in the US) who are doing exactly what I was told I could do by Tesla salesfolks (fill up on grid overnight, and sell solar generated power to PG&E) - but because of PGE, there is some rule in place which prevents the storage (w/solar) from filling up from the grid. This is the precise detail which basically rekt my ROI on this system, and gave me a storage system which is near worthless on consecutive cloudy days.

The Telsa forums are full of folks trying to circumvent this silliness (by feeding other power threw the Tesla transducer / current sensors at night, 'tricking' the Powerwall sw to think there is solar being generated) as well as other methods, but your mention of re-wiring it definitely piques my interest.  I'd love to have that done, if it's actually feasible - can you elaborate at all on that aspect?

Re: S9 fans speed get slower if applying external cold air?
by

on 04/07/2018, 17:38:48 UTC
Your original idea of giving them colder input air is the way to go (or a colder room in general) - as temps like that are most definitely dangerous.  It also could be your noise "solution" is causing less air flow, which would not help cool it.
