#1

I have and have had one mini dogecoin server working great. I just bought 4 new ones. I can’t get any of them online. When I power any of them on I get network lights blinking and the top blue light on the unit blinking. Next to where the power plugs in I get a RED light. When I go to find.goldshell.com it finds a new IP address but when I try to

I had similar but probably not the same issue with newest GS BOXes I have received recently.
I was not able to find IP via find.goldshell.com What has worked for me was to plug them in a different router I had at home instead of plugging them directly to the router I use for internet access.
I can not explain why it is working with another router it is just a way it worked for me. If you have some spare router at home try it it might work.
Initially I thought I am reaching my main router limits cause I have over 50 devices connected. :slight_smile:
Good luck I hope you will manage to sort it out.

Well, today is your lucky day! Here are the steps to take for you to be able to connect your doge miner. make sure you plug in your little wifi antenna onto your device.

  1. Go to your wifi network and connect to your goldshell box (KD,CK, or what ever you see on your network). You will be immediately disconnected from your wifi network.
  2. Type 192.168.0.1
  3. Access your portal and change the language to English
  4. Unlock your BOX
  5. Go to systems and look for your wifi that you use everyday and connect.
  6. Type in your wifi network password
  7. Now the BOX should disconnect itself and immediately connect to your own network
  8. Now go to find.goldshell.com and locate your miner. click on the little hex on the right
  9. This should immediately take you to your personal goldshell dashboard
  10. Now go add your pool information and save it!

That’s it! This is how I was able to fix the problem you are facing now. I hope this helps!

PS. I was able to connect to 192.168.0.1 even though the internet showed NO CONNECTION. Give it a shot
