Title: Doubt about internet disconnection Antminer
Post by: guizin27 on July 28, 2016, 08:15:53 PM
Hello.

I was an user that only visited the forum and never commented, but now I kind of need it.
In the country I live the internet conection isn't stable. It goes off at least one time per day.
Does i need to reconfigure my antminer if my internet goes off for about an hour? or it will reconect immediately?

Thanks

A unstable internet connection is not a great thing, the miner should reconnect once internet comes back.   But if you are experiencing daily outages it makes me question how reliable electricity is.  Do you have electricity outages aswell?  It does not take a lot of data being sent, but I would say latency you need to look at.  If you are dropping lots of packets and very slow... possible issues all depends on how much.

Also I have never experienced it but some have claimed certain miners without internet going crazy.  Read about it as some claim it... again I have not experienced it but worth mentioning as amount that mentioned it on certain older models.
