whats it mean if one of my asic status is showing an x?

hashingpro · · #22277

@BK what miner are you using? under the status page does it say its connected to PH site?

hashingpro · · #22278

@mvcatt that ASIC chip is offline, a possible reboot may make it work again.

hashingpro · · #22279

@plato what miners are you using?

bkjwashere · · #22280

I’m using a baikal giant+

hashingpro · · #22281

scrypt mining?

bkjwashere · · #22282

I can’t find a "status" page

hashingpro · · #22283

does that do scrypt or x-11?

bkjwashere · · #22284

x11

hashingpro · · #22285

If I remember, there is a setting you have to turn off or they wont be recognized.

mvcatt · · #22286

@hashingpro thanks would you recommend completely powering down or reboot from the system tab?

mvcatt · · #22287

im using an l3+ btw

bkjwashere · · #22288

how do I get to the "status" page? I don’t see that anywhere

hashingpro · · #22289

@mvcatt no just the system tab reboot should work for L3

hashingpro · · #22290

@bk try this page... viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1185&p=8907&hilit=baikal#p8907

hashingpro · · #22291

see if that applies, some setting needs to be turned off for mining on here I think, not sure if its your rig/setting that applies, check it out

bkjwashere · · #22292

nevermind....I see "Live worker status"

bkjwashere · · #22293

it says Live worker status (1)

hashingpro · · #22294

what im seeing is ''turn off the extranonce-subscribe.'

hashingpro · · #22295

the last post on the first page BK should be step by step for you.

bkjwashere · · #22296

extranonce is not checked on my miner

bkjwashere · · #22297

I don’t see any step by steps...maybe the link didn’t take me to what you are looking at

hashingpro · · #22298

do you have backup pools on your miner?

hashingpro · · #22299

failovers?

platoday · · #22300

@hashingpro :  L3+

hashingpro · · #22301

really @plato, and only at 60%? been connected with the full set the past 2 hours?

bkjwashere · · #22302

yes

hashingpro · · #22303

@BK remove all the failovers/backup pools so only PH is in the list

platoday · · #22304

well right now it’s back to 100%

bkjwashere · · #22305

but my miner says it’s successfully mining to prohashing

hashingpro · · #22306

then reboot and see if you still have 1 live worker connected

bkjwashere · · #22307

me or plato?

mvcatt · · #22308

@hashingpro that fixed it thanks.

hashingpro · · #22309

and logging in as that username on the earnings page it doesnt show up?

hashingpro · · #22310

you BK, remove the extra mine pools and try a reboot see if its really connecting.

bkjwashere · · #22311

how do I know whether it is showing up?

bkjwashere · · #22312

ok, I will reboot

hashingpro · · #22313

when you log into the prohasing.com site, enter in your username and password, click on EARNINGS and see workers and stats

mvcatt · · #22314

what exchanges do you guys use?

hashingpro · · #22315

thats when you know its showing up

hashingpro · · #22316

i enjoy gdax

hashingpro · · #22317

gdax --> coinbase --> paypal --> bank.

bkjwashere · · #22318

I’m on that page, but there are no stats. it says live worker stats (1), but no earnings

bkjwashere · · #22319

under notifications it says: Total hashrate X11 9,000.000 MH/s Not specified 0.000 MH/s 9/4/2017 8:55:01 PM

hashingpro · · #22320

under live workers does it show your worker name?

bkjwashere · · #22321

so "actual" = 0 MH/s

mvcatt · · #22322

goes gdax only have LTC/BTC/ETH?

bkjwashere · · #22323

yes

hashingpro · · #22324

when you click the worker name and it opens

bkjwashere · · #22325

that’s the "n=XXX", right?

hashingpro · · #22326

yeah

hashingpro · · #22327

does the worker have info inside it

hashingpro · · #22328

BK not the username, but what password do you send to the pool on the miner

hashingpro · · #22329

n=xxx what_all_else?

bkjwashere · · #22330

I named it "5". I didn’t put anything else in there

hashingpro · · #22331

so by default your X11 miner is failing greatly at trying to mine scrypt?

hashingpro · · #22332

try this as a password: n=5 a=x11

bkjwashere · · #22333

I put "n=5" in the password feild

mvcatt · · #22334

sounds like its working as intended then

bkjwashere · · #22335

ok

hashingpro · · #22336

give that a whirl and see if it connects and shows any work being done.

hashingpro · · #22337

there may be other settings to adjust, dont have one of them miners so i dont know more, that post I linked may have more infos.

bkjwashere · · #22338

thank you for your help. I didn’t get the "a=" part. I realize it now though....again, thanks

mvcatt · · #22339

do you get a bonus or extra payout for blocks found? my miner found a block that was value at 1200~ but i still just get normal pps right?

hashingpro · · #22340

that work BK it doing some hashing now?

hashingpro · · #22341

yeah mvcatt

bkjwashere · · #22342

my status section is green now...it wasn’t before :)

hashingpro · · #22343

unless you were solo mining at the time and found it, then that would have been your payout.

mvcatt · · #22344

aww shoots that wouldve been sweet

bkjwashere · · #22345

I’m thinking that’s a good thing

hashingpro · · #22346

now go check the earnings page on PH site BK.

hashingpro · · #22347

see if the worker is recording hashing numbers and percents and $$$

mvcatt · · #22348

do you think solo mining is worth it?

mvcatt · · #22349

or is it mainly a gamble?

hashingpro · · #22350

too sporadic and i dont think pays as well.

hashingpro · · #22351

i used to just sit on multipool.us and mine there

hashingpro · · #22352

since diff was soo low one place was as good as another.

hashingpro · · #22353

but i only mined LTCs on the titans, left the x-11 rig mine whatever it wanted

bkjwashere · · #22354

Boom!! Thank you very much....though it was an oversight (I read the "a="), I wouldn’t have easily figured it out

mvcatt · · #22355

ive mined on PH hash to coins and litecoinpool

hashingpro · · #22356

yeah when you said it was an X-11 i wondered if the password was on mark.

hashingpro · · #22357

see not too hard, now put in the backup pools incase PH goes down so you dont miss out on mining time.

mvcatt · · #22358

what do you use as a back up pool?

hashingpro · · #22359

nicehash and LCP

hashingpro · · #22360

im running a 24 hour set of 2 L3+s on each right now to compare

hashingpro · · #22361

and ill post my findings up later on, had to get down off my high horse to do it too.

mvcatt · · #22362

yea i wish i woulda got in on l3+ sooner but i missed out and got mine for 3k woulda liked to grab a few though

hashingpro · · #22363

but so far the payout from LCP

hashingpro · · #22364

is so much lower, id almost rather save the eelctric than have the miners hit that one as a 3rd pool.

hashingpro · · #22365

i need a better 3rd option

mvcatt · · #22366

whats your second option?

hashingpro · · #22367

nicehash

mvcatt · · #22368

oh nvm lol nicehash i see

mvcatt · · #22369

are NH and PH pretty comparable?

hashingpro · · #22370

PH has the fees up front...NH hides them some.

hashingpro · · #22371

they have a fee to deposit your daily into your nicehash wallet

hashingpro · · #22372

and then another fee when you remove that bitcoins from your nicehash wallet to you own wallet or other offsite place.

hashingpro · · #22373

so if the earnings were tied, id still go PH lower fees to get access to the coins.

mvcatt · · #22374

yea sounds a bit screwy but i guess everyones gotta make money

mvcatt · · #22375

have you tried Hash to coins?
