Up to V2.1.8 there were no problems to connect to "sha256.poolbinance.com". Every FW Version above is not working anymore on this pool. Log:

Interesting... from your screenshot it looks like it's working. can you provide more log output; ideally starting earlier on?

mountainlove commented 4 weeks ago

Sure. Also found something interesting.

With V2.1.8, everything works like expected:

V2 1 8_1 V2 1 8_2 V2 1 8_3 V2 1 8_4

When i upgrade the Firmware without any Powercycle, i'm able to mining on with V2.3.0 (or any other above 2.1.8):

V2 3 0_pwr_1 V2 3 0_pwr_2 V2 3 0_pwr_3

And after a complete reboot with taking away the Power, the Miner i stucking in that Loop from the first post:

V2 3 0_1 V2 3 0_2 V2 3 0_3

Connection is: sha256.poolbinance.com / port 8888

Thank you.

I had something similar in the past, nothing worked for me except 2.1.8. Playing around with new firmware I "bricked" my miner and had to flash v2.1.10 using Python via serial port. This has not only "unbricked" my miner but also fixed issues I had with 2.1.10 in the past. Currently, I installed 2.3.0 via Web UI and it works without issues.

I had also to reflash my miner with v2.1.10 first (with wantclue web-flasher). Then i followed similar steps as @sstativa, but i had no Luck to get it mining. For me only a Downgrade to v2.1.8 helps.

Which bitaxe is it? Or is it a LuckyMiner?
