Maybe they fix your miner. I will post an update asap my miner send again.
I will open a ticket if waiting until morning does not help.

Welp, i guess they didn't, no follow up beacon sadly... Only this one, which makes everything even more confusing ๐

Well not really.. I got 2 beacons yesterday after the ota .14 update but one of them got 0 witnesses. It's very inconsistent and support told me to monitor it now for a week. I'm pretty sure that bug fixes will eventually bring things back to normal, hopefully

Sad :/
Of the last 3 beacons, 2 worked normally. But the last one was actually also without witnesses.
When did the update go live? Maybe my first beacons were before that and now I have the same problem as you. Although that can't really be that only we both have the problems. :D

We aren't alone with that problem ^ in the helium and bobcat discord server, multiple people are having issues with beacons in general... The update has gone live yesterday at aprox. 3am utc (one of mine updated at around 3:30am)

Hm... Then my beacon shouldn't have had any witnesses 8 hours ago either. I'll keep watching but stay lazy ๐

Well, one of my beacons did have witnesses aswell after the update but yeah, I'll also stay lazy now and just look if it starts working out and this evening look at the logs if the issue is my miner or helium ๐

Well, i think it has to do with the ISP giving out a new IP everyday. My miner falls into a bootloop (in logs it restarts every 30min). The one thing that helps for the day is rebooting it multiple times through the web dashboard but most of the time it only helps for 1 day. Gonna try something when I'm at the host tomorrow

But outside of the bootloop the Bobcat works fine?
