I have pointed my miner to prohashing.com:3333 yet the site says "no miner connnected". I am uncertain about password arguments. I left them blank. Is that the problem?

AppleMiner · · #64799

@mtcresources :  what miner are you using?

mtcresources · · #64800

antiminer L3+

AppleMiner · · #64801

and for the username you put the username of your prohashing.com account

mtcresources · · #64802

yes. I’m putting the prohashing only on the third pool down, priority 2

AppleMiner · · #64803

and then clicked apply and waited 90 secs and then went to the status page on the miner

AppleMiner · · #64804

ok so if its priority 3

AppleMiner · · #64805

and pools 1 and 2 are up and working

AppleMiner · · #64806

it wont come here

AppleMiner · · #64807

it goes in order, it will only hit 3 if both 1 and 2 are down

AppleMiner · · #64808

or in error

AppleMiner · · #64809

ok not sure what priority 2 means

sturgeon6288 · · #64810

just spent 2 hrs getting miners to show on live miner statous and as soon as i got my last miner showing. went straight back to 0 showing is this normal how do i know if all miners are running

mtcresources · · #64811

OK I see. 1 and 2 are up: that’s what I needed to know. I’m on antpool for the other two. Prioirity was listed as 0,1, and 2

AppleMiner · · #64812

yeah kill antpool unless you made an account

AppleMiner · · #64813

you are mining for THEM

AppleMiner · · #64814

they get those coins, they default to their wallets not yours

AppleMiner · · #64815

stick some other pools in for backup/failovers

mtcresources · · #64816

i’m averaging .07 ltc a day. Is that about right ? Or would putting prohashing at a higher priority yield more?

AppleMiner · · #64817

@sturgeon6288 :  there was a server reboot for a code change for live status of miners to update

AppleMiner · · #64818

would have to check the 1MH expected chart and put in your hashrate and compare it.

sturgeon6288 · · #64819

i understand that but im still showing 0

sturgeon6288 · · #64820

after the reboot

mtcresources · · #64821

where is the 1MH chart, (if I can ask a newbie question)

AppleMiner · · #64822

log off and back in and refresh?

AppleMiner · · #64823

on the prohashing.com page charts

mtcresources · · #64824

OK I’ll look. I think the Antminer S9 has 14 TH and the L3+ has 504 MH

AppleMiner · · #64825

cant use S9 here

AppleMiner · · #64826

dont have sha-256 yet

AppleMiner · · #64827

coming soon(tm)

AppleMiner · · #64828

back in a few need to grab some lunch

doomguard · · #64829

is that hashrate correct? My l3+ only get 420mh/s for the last few hours

AppleMiner · · #64830

it might be

AppleMiner · · #64831

there was a server restart so numbers may be off until it has a 2 hour cycle to compute on

AppleMiner · · #64832

it computes hashrates based on shares submitted

AppleMiner · · #64833

if you have lag, or crappy ping, or lots of HW errors and shares arent going in, then your hashrate on the pool is lower than what the L3+ reports

AppleMiner · · #64834

I could modify you a firmware that the L3+ shows your mining at 4 GH per L3+

AppleMiner · · #64835

but until you are submitting that many clean valid shares to the pool, the pool will show otherwise.

AppleMiner · · #64836

raw overclocking if the errors rise too much in comparison wont equate to greater hashrates, and can sometimes be less.

AppleMiner · · #64837

ok lunchtime.

memomix · · #64838

I have 0.30% reject with D3 in the pool,so it's normal you think?

spauk · · #64839

less than 1% reject is good

Forum notification · · #64840

has started a new topic: No shares accepted

Kfedorek · · #64841

why are only 5 of my 15 mienrs showing on the dash but they are connected

cashflowminer · · #64842

Does anyone know if the more mining machines we have connected to our ProHash account if that increases our profitability versus just having a single machine?

deathlessdd · · #64843

no

deathlessdd · · #64844

its based on PPS

cashflowminer · · #64845

PPS....and what determines pay per share?

deathlessdd · · #64846

how many shares

deathlessdd · · #64847

Will still equal the same for each miner

cashflowminer · · #64848

so more machines means more shares right?

deathlessdd · · #64849

yes

deathlessdd · · #64850

But you will be making the same

cashflowminer · · #64851

Ok so it doesn’t matter how many machines I have, they are all essentially created equal when using this mining pool

deathlessdd · · #64852

I mean the same as if you had 1 miner but x25

deathlessdd · · #64853

Yes

cashflowminer · · #64854

Thanks deathlessdd

deathlessdd · · #64855

If you solo mined you would make more if you hit a block

deathlessdd · · #64856

so if you have alot of machine you would have more of a chance to hit a block for dash

cashflowminer · · #64857

Ok so if I had 1000 L3+ machines...how would I go about solo mining?

deathlessdd · · #64858

But PPS your making exacly the same

deathlessdd · · #64859

Yeah

deathlessdd · · #64860

you would put in the password m=solo

deathlessdd · · #64861

and c=which evercoin u wanna solo mine

cashflowminer · · #64862

Cool....so mining pool gives my investors a safe and consistent return on each machine...however if I changed the password to m=solo c=litecoin then I would be specifically mining Litecoin but my daily revenue would not be the same as I’m getting for $20/day, right and could be less, but if I get a block then I get a bigger payout, do I have that logic correct?

deathlessdd · · #64863

Yes if you hit a block you would make 100% more

deathlessdd · · #64864

but if you dont hit a block then you will loose money

deathlessdd · · #64865

So you will have to deal with a risk

deathlessdd · · #64866

But im pretty sure 1000 machines will hit blocks

cashflowminer · · #64867

loos money as in the operating cost of overhead, electricity, etc, is that correct?

deathlessdd · · #64868

Yes

deathlessdd · · #64869

Because your playing a lottery

deathlessdd · · #64870

It might take a month 2 months 3 month etc to hit a block

cashflowminer · · #64871

gotcha

deathlessdd · · #64872

But if you hit a block you would make up for it

EyePeaSea · · #64873

I’m using c=Gulden in my password, but website is still switching to other coins such as Verge. Does this suggest there’s a problem with Gulden network?

deathlessdd · · #64874

is that spelled right

deathlessdd · · #64875

or maybe they dont mine that coin

cashflowminer · · #64876

and as more L3+ are added to the network will that PPS go down ? and even if solo mining, the probablility of hitting block solo mining also goes down, correct?

deathlessdd · · #64877

Well the pool has alot of hashing power so it probably hits blocks pretty often so I dont think so

deathlessdd · · #64878

You make more PPS as long as the pool is hitting blocks

cashflowminer · · #64879

Ok so regardless of the flood of L3+ AntMiners that will get on the network as early as March 1st and as last at April 1st....means that this will not affect profitability to any significant degree?

cryptomon3ter · · #64880

guys please answer, is it ok when pool does not show all the miners, I have 11 connected to pool but there are only 4 shown

deathlessdd · · #64881

Mostly the difficulty goes up and it will be less profitable

EyePeaSea · · #64882

To clarify - the ’live work status’ says Verge, but the ’Worker History | Coin’ says Gulden - so maybe not a problem...

deathlessdd · · #64883

i think its eGulden @eye

Forum notification · · #64884

has started a new topic: D3 connection issues

deathlessdd · · #64885

Im not really sure

deathlessdd · · #64886

Maybe wont mine that coin if theres no blocks to mine

EyePeaSea · · #64887

@Death - Ok, thanks. I’ll leave it a while and see what happens :-)

cryptomon3ter · · #64888

guys please answer, is it ok when pool does not show all the miners, I have 11 connected to pool but there are only 4 shown

cashflowminer · · #64889

So basically high tides raises all boats wtih L3+ Scrypt mining right? As it switch to more profitable coin as any given time so that we all have more hash power together?

deathlessdd · · #64890

Ya the price of the coin just makes you think its more profitable, Then once the price jobs then you thinking you just lost alot of money

deathlessdd · · #64891

*drops

cashflowminer · · #64892

Got it so profitability depends on what currency value/amount you are viewing it from?

deathlessdd · · #64893

that and the difficulty the higher it gets the less profitable it will become because its harder to mine coins

cashflowminer · · #64894

If viewing from dollars it looks like, yes value is profitable...but viewing through a coin amount, it looks like no it is not making as much coins as I did last month.

deathlessdd · · #64895

Its combined

cashflowminer · · #64896

the coin amount and dollar value? ....what’s combined? ...again thanks for your responses..I really appreciate it.

deathlessdd · · #64897

If the price of the coin goes up faster then the diff then it seems like your making more, But soon as the diff catches up or the price of the coin drops then thats what you are stuck with
