Quick question I just received my first Mntd miner, how can I remotely set it up? Do I need that particular Wi-Fi address?
Well… Managing a miner requires you physically there for the initial set up. I just got my MNTD in too! 5th miner in the fleet… I can not personally recommend any apps that claim to set up remotely as I have not used any. Seems like a security risk. Anyways, I am about to drive downstate to install said new blackspot. RAKs and MNTDs are sturdy and sexy even if they have long delays on customer service and sketchy shipping:) I hope this helps, personally I love driving to set up new hotspots and assert new locations:)
This video is a good place to start. Also watch his other videos that include how to port forward and create a static IP address to prevent a relayed status. If you are still having issues, join the helium and RAK discord groups that are great at troubleshooting. The initial sync is painfully slow.
Thanks a lot that’s what I thought. If you don’t mind me asking how do you convince someone to allow you to put one in their home?
