    Hi Jessica,

    Thanks for the file. However, I have 100% sure that it is a virus that is infected the control board. The control board cannot be flashed via the antminer web interface (results in 404 error due to the virus blocking the new flash). 

    Do you have any other recommendations how to get rid of the virus? It seems to be very similar to the one that is affecting L3+ miners. With L3+ miners, I had to literally short circuit the control board to get rid off it. 

     

    Cheers,

    Jessica, 

     

    I am also in need of the DR5 Antivirus file and instructions and also the DR5 SD flash file.

    please email files to     kclements@gmail.com

    Also will you have DR5 parts in stock?  APW8?  replacement hashboards?  Is there a authorized service center in the U.S. that can repair DR5 hashboards?

    Dear

    We send you the anti-virus and the SD card file.

    Sorry we lack the stock now---Also will you have DR5 parts in stock? and the hashboard can not be sold separately all the time, if your DR5 is under the warranty you can send back to the repair site in the Hongkong to repair temporarily, after this time we will also not repair it again.
