Description
The Bitmain AntRouter R1-BTC is a versatile device that functions as both a Bitcoin solo miner and a general wireless router. Designed to mine in Antpool’s solo mode, it offers the potential to earn around 25 Bitcoins if a block is found. This requires the R1 to be online and operating correctly. Additionally, the R1 serves as a standard wireless router, providing internet connectivity for phones and computers, and can also act as a WiFi access point by converting a cabled internet connection to wireless.
The R1 includes a high-speed USB charger compatible with Android phones, iPhones, and tablets. It can also manage and run several AntMiner U3s, eliminating the need for a computer connection when using a USB hub.
