Re: [Guide] Dogie's Comprehensive ASICMiner Cube Setup

This is really strange. I set up a new cube last night and it seemed to be running fine for about an hour, but by the time I was preparing to go to bed it had dropped to a flat 0. It seems to function in short bursts getting to ~600MH/s but always flatlines after a few seconds. I was hoping it was a problem with Slush's pool and not on my end but it doesn't look like that's the case.

Here's a shot of the configuration:

(It shows 10GH/s but within a minute of taking the screenshot it dropped back to 0)
*snip*

Any advice? I tried restarting everything, including the router and my PC, but the problem persists.

You have a network issue, try to shutdown all your wifi devices, weird thing I know...

That did sound weird, but I did what you said and it seems to be working again! It's back up to a steady ~30GH/s. Is there any setting in particular I could change to have both wireless and the cube running? It's not a huge issue though since I never use the WiFi myself; it's just for guests.

P.S. THANK YOU!

Re: Can't connect to block erupter cube!

1. First you have to change the IP settings of your computer to manual.
Your router leases 192.168.0.x to ypur pc by dhcp (automatically).
But the cube has 192.168.1.254

So you need to change the IP address of your pc to 192.168.1.x (x = something between 1 and 253).

2. After changing the ip of your PC, you should be able to connect to the webinterface of the cube. Once you got connected, change the IP of the cube to 192.168.0.x (x = something between 2 and 254)

3. Then change the IP of your PC from manual back to automatically (DHCP). You should now be able to connect to the cube by his new IP Address you set in step 2.

Good luck



That worked perfectly, thanks! I'd leave a tip but I don't know your wallet address (yet). Wink

Can't connect to block erupter cube!

Hi everyone! I'm not a total newbie to mining bitcoin but I'm still a beginner, and probably out of my depth here. I previously set up four USB strips of 9 Sapphire Miners each and have had those running flawlessly at ~12GH/s for the past two months. However, I decided to pick up a 30-38GH/s block erupter cube from JonesGear recently and can't for the life of me figure out how to get it connected.

My physical setup seems fine; all lights are on and the fan is running. I'm using a USB to Ethernet adapter to connect directly to my PC, but when I try the 192.168.1.254:8000 address it always times out. I tried connecting to a different PC, as well as directly to the router with the same result. Firewalls are temporarily disabled on both computers and the router itself.

My router's IP defaults to 192.168.0.1 but I figured I could change the cube's address to a 192.168.0.x if I connected to my PC first, but as I said I can't connect to get into the configuration settings at all.

Any advice?
