L3+ Mining Solo

Post by g137556s » Sun Jan 14, 2018 12:54 pm

So I have tried mining solo many times and it connects for awhile, then the AntMiner status shows that pool as "Dead" and switched to the next pool setup. Any ideas why? Password arguments are: c=linxcoin m=solo

When you click on your LIVE WORKER STATUS, can you verify the miners say SOLO or Pay-Per-Share on them for mode:

Yes, when it does connect, the mode states "solo mining"

How long are you soloing linxcoin before you get booted typically?
Only thing I can think off off the top of my head is linxcoin disappears from minable due to errors?

If you were try litecoin solo mining, would that ever kick you off?
Might be worth a test depending on how long linxcoin keeps you connected.

It worked for awhile, but now it won't connect at all unless I take off solo.

picking a different coin c=verge
wont connect in either?

Try using the proxy pool setting as a test, and c=verge to solo mine
Just to see if it will connect in, if so then try linxcoin on the proxy.

If that connects for a while, and then stops, and the original URL opens back up...you may have some type of blocker going on, maybe a firewall on a device or ISP doing a temp block or something.

I've had connection issues on and off, where reboots dont work, half the miners were on while the other half on the same rack with the same settings were DEAD. All the issues started after the SEPT data move, but after a month, the beginning of Oct, it was all better and ironed out.


I'm really hoping the internet upgrade in the next few weeks removes a crap ton of issues magically with the wave of a wand.
-low difficulty miners not able to connect with the high diff set(once upgraded maybe able to lower this?)
-miners connecting in and dropping out randomly
-pool taking a while to see as ALIVE for some miners, boots up and has to have 2nd or 3rd pool to begin mining on or takes forever sometimes not at all able to connect to prohashing, for example if prohashing is only pool listed on certain L3+ machines.

I've got the same issue with my L3+'s. I've tried using proxy server as well, though they disconnect after an hour or less to failover.

My password Arguments are: n=ASIC1 p=0.10 w=800 m=solo c=Litecoin d=262144

Try with removing the d= setting completely and seeing if that does anything.
