hello, I've been searching a lot and every single time i come to a solo mining thread the only responses i ever see are "don't". I am hoping someone here may actually be able to assist.

I am able to get everything running including mining locally on my node but when I attempt to get my gpu miners connected I get the errors below (in red) and i've done the math, at my KH/s I  'can' get a block every week or so, and thats a lot more than I can make pool mining. I had great luck UBIQ solo mining when I was told not to, with my hash power I should have only made 1 block a day on UBIQ and got 2-4 most days so I want to at least try it on ETN too

I've tried connecting with cgminer, sgminer and claymore's cpu miner (in dev fee mode as NH is down still). all of which work when I point them at pools but not at my full node.

My cli when starting electroneumd looks like this:

electroneumd.exe --rpc-bind-ip xx.x.x.xxx --rpc-bind-port 26968 --out-peers 50 --seed-node 76.91.14.76:26967 --start-mining etnxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx --confirm-external-bind --
restricted-rpc --allow-local-ip

some of the cli options  are sorta vague and I'm thinking that is that is where my problem lies, but hoping again someone can help out.



and the output once it is started up looks like: (again, the red is when the different miners attempt to connect)

cant help you sorry, dont know enough

what is your speed? would 24kH/s be enough for solo you think?

have been trying to find a solo mining guide for ETN using Vega
could you point me in any useful direction?

New Electroneum Pool (Today started) http://etn.top-miningpool.eu/ (http://etn.top-miningpool.eu/) Minimum payouts 20 ETN, Pool fee 1.5%.

Most mining software are pool only miners which will "register" with the pool and expect work from it. The miner that is shipped with the software - I think the one that resides in the wallet - will solo mine to the node. But that is likely not compatible with GPUs and not optimized to give you the best speed according to the hardware.

I see one option to run your own pool and connect the miner/miners to it. I think you can block outside access to it so you can solo mine.
The second option would be to find mining software which allows you to solo mine. Not sure if I've seen one but I wouldn't dismiss this option.
