Title: Question about router Post by: Zotak337 on April 19, 2021, 05:16:04 PM Since everyone is claiming that internet connection is the reason why one get stale shares and rejected shares I've decide to buy a router but I find two types, one with sim card capable and the other have no sim card, which one is better?
Title: Re: Question about router Post by: jims2321 on April 19, 2021, 07:23:55 PM Whoa there nelly, hold on a second. The reason one gets stale/reject shares may have nothing or everything to do with you. Here some questions to ask before you jump.
1. How many and how often are you getting stale shares? Is 1 or 2 every few minutes/hours/days/weeks? Occasionally get a run of stale/reject is normal, the internet is just like getting stuck in traffic sometimes. Something happens and traffic slows down. 2. If I change mining pools do those numbers change? Do they increase or decrease? If they decrease, then it probably on the mining pool side, skip the getting the router. 3. Do I see issues with other internet connected devices (TV/gaming consoles/web browsing, etc)? If so, contact your ISP/Service provider you may have a wire issue. 4. Is my mining connection via WiFi. Well that alone is probably a issue unto itself. But in our daily lives WiFi congestion is a fact of life and can cause latency thus stale/rejected shares. This is just a few things that come to mind. So before you go spending your hard earned money, make sure that its addressing a valid issue. Title: Re: Question about router Post by: Bitbtc8 on April 20, 2021, 06:30:14 AM If you are using WiFi hotspot for mining then it's going to worth getting a router because wifi hotspot sucks, if you are using 5G network you won't notice the difference though because it's blazing fast but 4G on wifi hotspot still brings 300 to 600MS when mining to using Router can net you 50Ms to 100MS max
Title: Re: Question about router Post by: Looper_U on April 20, 2021, 07:12:39 AM I personally recommend router over others, low latency works best for mining crypto, it's why gamers and streamers choose routers to gain the fastest speed possible, any router with 150mbps will do the job well, the sim slot capable routers are the easiest to set up, just insert sim and switch on

The reason one gets stale/reject shares may have nothing or everything to do with you. Here some questions to ask before you jump. I'm getting more rejected shares than stales, most like around 5% but the rejected shares are pretty much, for example today I get 2890 accepted shares and 67 rejected shares, is this not much?1.

That was something I wasn't sure about before Title: Re: Question about router Post by: philipma1957 on April 20, 2021, 01:46:17 PM Whoa there nelly, hold on a second.

If you drop you ram 5% see if the rejects go away. Title: Re: Question about router Post by: MCcryptonia on April 20, 2021, 05:32:53 PM Whoa there nelly, hold on a second.
