Title: Proxy Download for Windows
Post by: Swimmer_Dude on September 20, 2013, 05:27:18 AM
Hi. If this is an older question then my bad.
I have a Block Erupter Blade (New Model), https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=286486.0 , and a PSU and internet but I can not find the proxy software. I follow the link here, http[Suspicious link removed] , and "Website is under the maintenance". SO I would like to know if any of you have an alternative link that works or can point me in the direction of a download location. I can not get this rig to mine at all using the on board web interface. I am on slush's pool if that matters.
I hope someone can help. Thanks for your time.

Hi,

Have you already found the proxy?

Last week my blade arrived and also had a problem finding the proxy, eventually found it somewhere. If you haven't found it yet, I can put it online for you and others to download.

Steven.

Also because you're on Slush's pool, you don't need any parameters when starting the proxy. Just start the .exe from the command line, then in your blade enter the ip address of the computer that runs the proxy. Enter the ip twice, and also enter your Slush pool work credentials twice, as the blade needs 2 pool configurations to run.

You should have it up and running in minutes. If any problems, feel free to ask! I also have the blade erupter running the proxy on Slush's pool.

Because it took me a minute to figure this out and because this is the newbies section I figured I'd add that you can use that proxy to mine any pool. You just need to set up a BAT file pointing to a new stratum server.

Mine looks like this, for example.

mining_proxy.exe -o stratum.btcguild.com -p 3333


The Blade holds the login and password info, so this is all you need. I can't stand slush, way too much down time unless things have changed lately.



This should work, since the slush link is down.

Hey, sorry for the necromancy, but I too have a block erupter blade. I'm trying to use it with slush's pool. I entered all the correct items in the blade's configuration page, but I keep getting this

It looks like it connects to slush's pool at first, but then it keeps getting "clean_jobs=False". I'm not getting any shares or a hash rate, but everything on the blade's config page everything looks fine.
Any suggestions?
