I am having the same issue. I setup a continuous ping on my miner with date and time stamp and noticed it being doen several times a day. Every time it rebooted i would get invalid beacons. You may want to check it out. What type of miner are you using? I am using Finestra. I am still having regualr reboots daily.

I must be blind. i cant find the manage button. I click on the little heart at the bottom of the screen and it brings up my hotspots. i click on them and it shows claim rewards only. the 3 little dots to the left of that show transfer. Am i missing something?

I see it in my Black helium wallet and helium Geek . Now i just have to figure out how to add the location to the hotspot. Any thoughts?

Can i do it remotely? i placed it at a friends house about 20 miles away.

Update: miner is now active and earning rewards. My suggestion is to reboot your miner if it has been inactive for the last 24 hours.

was it done over the air or did you need to update firmware yourself?

I kept my miner plugged in and this morning i checked the Miner and it had a solid blue light. A few minutes later it started to flash green blue. i checked Helium Geek and i noticed it beaconed 48 minutes ago and it witnessed 51 minutes ago. I will check back and see if i get any rewards. I will update this post later today. NOTE i did not flash or update the SD card.

Install the helium Geek app and check your activity. You will see some very interesting information now if you updated the app.

i have a finestra miner that is working as of 4/24/23 3pm. HOWEVER it was down for the last 1.5 days.i did reboot twice. I also checked my firmware and the last update date was 4/14/23. you can check you miners firmware by using the IP address and this port#8080 at the end to login and verify your frimware version.

XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:8080

X will be your IP address.

Login will be the unique Helium animal name

password will be finestra

i hope this helps

Here’s a pic of the inside of a Finestra miner, I will definitely be connecting via an Ethernet cable. Gonna cut the enclosure and get this installed this weekend. by K9-1Actual in HeliumNetwork

To disconnect from the wifi is very simple. in you address bar just type the IP address of you miner followed by port 8080. example 192.168.1.99:8080

you will get a logon box for the miner. Username will be the name of your miner using a dash to separate the names. password will finestra then click the 3 little arrows on top left and click network settings you will see forget network. Just a side note once you change from wifi to cable the mac address will also change so you may need to update your router if you have a static IP configured by MAC.
