EDIT: One of two things fixed it. I put an SD card in the phone and tried entering the words manually instead of the QR code on one attempt... it restored, not sure which (or if both) solved the problem. But now it stands for any who come after me that have a similar issue, it either A. didn't like the QR code (unlikely) or B. didn't like not having an SD card.

Thanks for the hint!

I already had a SD card in my phone so I tried NOT using the QR code.
Manually entering in the seed (12 words) worked fine.

Re: Bitcoin.co.th Reviews, Testimonials & Comments

My feedback is that I really like Bitcoin.co.th.

I transferred 1.6+ btc to them to have deposited in a bank account.  I, stupidly, made a mistake on which bank it was going to.

Bitcoin.co.th followed-up with me to correct the account details.  Very professional.

I also purchased my first bitcoin mining hardware (U1 Antminers - USB) from them when those items were first released.  I've since moved up to a lot of other bitmining hardware but Bitcoin.co.th sold me my first.

I sent some btc (to a bitcoinfog wallet I had used before) while bitcoinfog was down / in transit.

Hopefully the migration to new servers goes smoothly and my btc is waiting for me.

[ U P D A T E D ]

After the migration finished my btc was waiting for me in BitCoinFog.

All is well.  I transferred it away already.

Re: [Setup & Troubleshoot] Bitmain AntMiner S1 180GH/S miner
by
chopsticks
on 16/03/2014, 08:03:30 UTC
Thanks, Winterdeath   the above post is about me  ^^


OK I got my hands on an antminer S1 and I ran into a weird problem. I got it set up and had trouble with my all in one gateway/modem communicating with it so I went into my router controls and made my gateway 192.168.1.1 and logged into my antminer's ip just fine. I changed the pool to my multipool address and hit save and apply and rebooted the antminer. About 2 mins later it began hashing, but when i checked the miner status tab in the interface it said it was mining for http://50.31.149.57:3333, which is the default pool 0 in the antminer settings. Now I went back into the miner config and entered my pool info again to make sure it wasnt an error and when I hit save and apply and rebooted the miner it does nothing at all Sad
I reset the miner with the button and it mines on the default pools just fine, showing 180ghs on the miner status tab, but when I change it to my pool it only beeps. When I turn off the power and turn it back on it stops beeping but will not hash. I tried the same pool/worker combo on a smaller bfl miner and it works fine so im entering all that correctly. I dont know what it could be
also my ipconfig has a lot more parameters than the one in the tutorial, theres one for local-link ipv6 address above my ipv4 address mask and gateway

Make sure your DNS is set correctly.  Try 8.8.8.8 (Google's DNS) or OpenDNS 208.67.222.222

Since you can hash successfully with the default pool (IP Address) it definitely looks like DNS.

You might want to set your broadcast to 192.168.1.255 too.

WHen I overclock to 200 I get TONS of hardware errors. But at 375 I get about 195 GH/S and no errors. Interesting.

had the same thing happen on my second S1 Antminer.  First one using a 750w power supply.  This one using a 600w power supply.

Hi Simon.

App looks nice.

However, with the recent Mac OS X exploits that are stealing bitcoins I would suggest caution from users who may download your app.
Your newbie status of 1 post doesn't instill much confidence.

If the scammer was using the Google DNS (8.8.8.Cool or a VPN that popped-out in the USA they would be using the regional Gmail servers of the USA.

Did you think about asking Google or Coinbase for assistance with IP address tracking from their side?  At some point in time the scammers may have made a mistake.

I doubt the scammers would be stupid enough to be within the borders of the USA.  Then again: the Silk Road fool was stupid enough to be in the USA... so one can always hope.

75% luck or 0.75x0.09=0.0675, your image shows 0.74.  I've seen you complain about this well over 4 times in this thread.  I don't mean to ridicule you but you really need to spend some time reading about how basic statistics and read through the last 20 pages where E clearly explains the stats.

On those days we had 120% luck you would have made 1.2x(your expected rate).  If that is not the case simply look at your charts and confirm that your miner is indeed consistently putting out 560GH/s.  This is not difficult math (for that your can read organofcorti's posts and make your head itch).

Hi, i have a problem with my antminer. Can anyone help me please?

When i switch on the power to the antminer, my web browser automatically shows unable to connect to the network. However when i switch it off it automatically connected back and i am able to surf the net. I am able to log into the antminer log in page and change configuration but not surfing the net.


I am also having problems in connecting my antminer to the internet. My laptop is able to pick up strong signal from my home wifi router but the antminer seems to not pick up the signal. Sometimes when it picks up, it only hashes like about a few seconds and it get disconnected again.


I tried bridging my antminer and my laptop using the ethernet cable. But still got the same results ( unable to connect to the internet) . How can i make it work? Any help or guidance is vert much appreciated. Please bear with me as i am not technically good in electrical application.

From
Confused.

Hi.  I'd recommend you plug-in directly.  i.e. Ethernet plug from your computer to the Antminer.

Go back and read the whole set-up thread again.  Not trying to be a jackwagon... just trying to help.

You might want to RESET your Antminer(s) by using the small button (labelled S2) on the Antminer blade that has the WiFi attached to it.  It's small but you can find it if you look for it.

On the newer v 1.2 boards 12-4-13 it is labeled S2. It resets the ip of the machine to  192.168.1.99

Re: [Antminer S1 open for sale again] The last round before the Chinese New Year

They havent been marked as shipped, its normal for BITMAIN to ship before updating the web site. There are loads of examples of this already in this thread.

They were all ordered before the 23rd cutoff date so they will have been shipped on the 24th and 25th. If, when you get the tracking details it shows they were shipped after the 25th then you will have a case for claiming a coupon and going by past history with BITMAIN you will probably get one.

This is great. However, the price is now already 1.438BTC and my order of 8 S1's hasn't been shipped yet (6x orderdate 16-02 and 2x orderdate 22-02)

I think it would be fair to hand out coupons for people like me. I've waited about 2 weeks before I have them (considering they're not shipped yet) and the price will drop more and more, but new orders will ship much faster than after 2 weeks it seems.

Anything you can do here?

Unless I missed something your orders (6x order date Feb 16 and Feb 22) would have already shipped.  You missed the cut-off date of February 23rd.  It's February 25th here already in Asia (5pm on Feb 25 as I write this).

And BITMAIN just explained that your bus ticket was already purchased.   Not sure what there is to say.

Your packages are on the way.  You'll get them days earlier than those who ordered today at a 0.007 btc discount ($3.5 at current rates according to PREEV.COM).

Are you really trying to start a discussion about a 0.007 coupon?  Are you riding the short bus?

well I am trying to snap out of it but u know in india i am a middle class guy with an average salary which is about 5 dollars per day for working about 11 hours a day. Now for me that is about 22000 hours of hard labour. Which is almost 6 to 7 years of nonstop working days..

Sorry brother!

My condolences on the theft.  I can only imagine.
