Awesome thanks! Just read through that. Two things I noticed were

“OS+ has fees in it and takes hashes to pay the fees, and thus you can't secure your miner behind a secure firewall, it must talk directly to slush no matter what you do.”

Have to confirm that’s not what’s messing me up.

I will also maybe try and reinstall the firmware ultimately that seemed to fix it for him. But yeah, weird, first time I plugged it in got a few TH/s for a few seconds with a green normal light before it wound down. Hm.

Thanks again for sharing the link!

😂 I must have dyslexia since I didn’t even catch that and read it how you meant it

Hmm yeah interesting - own house & have my own router upstairs this is one of the Ethernet outlets downstairs. Can reboot the S9 from my laptop. Maybe I’ll try plugging in directly to the router and see if that makes a difference, even though the lights on the Ethernet port seem to be appropriate per the Antminer site (yellow on left, flashing green on right)

I don’t see any of my hashboard lights on either which is weird, thought there would be a red light on those.

Man I’m like a poor little hobbit going into battle with this stuff 😂

No doesn’t look like it. Trying to troubleshoot. Seems like Braiins support feature might be helpful so we’ll see where that gets me. Still only seeing my fans RPM on the dashboard, nothing else. Googling every line in the kernel logs and nothing particularly helpful lol.

Found this but unsure what exactly it means…still working on it!

I believe so! Still digging in. It’s from Kaboomracks with a sticker that says it passed all the tests so it’s probably user error on my end lol

😂😂😂

Not as much as I did with my Jade going FULL tilt at 80000 h/s!

Welp. Mined for 3.6 seconds, then slowed and solid red “Fault” light.

Able to see its IP and restart it with Braiins but same thing, picks up for a sec then slows down and red fault.

Now learning what a kernel log is and how to troubleshoot an S9 combing through Reddit.

All part of the fun.

Setting up my S9 and just curious, what mining pool(s) do you guys recommend? It’s from Kaboomracks and comes with Braiins OS, though looking at mempool mined blocks is it better to go with a bigger one getting more blocks (e.g. Foundry, AntPool, etc) over something like Braiins Pool?

Thanks for the help! Looking at Reddit and whatnot but really love the #nostr tips I’ve gotten so far.

The follower number displayed on my app is 2/3 that displayed on https://nostr.band/

Does this mean 1/3 of people generally don't see my posts even tho they don't follow me?

Curious about this too, using Damus. Was pretty accurate till recently. My high score went down by 1/3.

Ok good to know! Will stick to my Bitmain S9 from Kaboomracks (thanks for that recommendation)

😂ok good to know! Just got an Bitmain S9 I’m happy

Lol I definitely could use one with my Aussies!
