Title: Quick question: 15 x Antminer S7s, satellite internet, 10 GB/Mo data cap Post by: navigatrix on April 30, 2016, 12:13:36 AM I'm looking at a location to put some miners and it may be the only Internet access is satellite or mobile through Verizon.
Is this doable with a 10 GB/mo data cap? I'm not worried about bandwidth, just the data usage I would get charged for. Thanks Title: Re: Quick question: 15 x Antminer S7s, satellite internet, 10 GB/Mo data cap Post by: -ck on April 30, 2016, 12:22:47 AM Unless you're also planning to put a full bitcoin node there or solo mine on-site, then it's not a problem as mining on a pool uses very little actual bandwidth itself.

Seems like most miners for SHA256 or Scrypt use quite a bit less than 1K/s of data, when I've bothered looking at data usage with available LINUX tools.

By the way I recommend joining kano.is minning pool. You make a slightly higher profit than antminer.

'' I got a lot of sp30 and i got no problem with the internet data cap! But the s7 is killing me, eating a lot of data!!!!

Mining now days, need a reliable always on internet connection.
10GB data plan, that is more than enough, and yes, it can run but please pay special attention to your network connection!! |
