Title: Antminer S1 Post by: TimSweat on March 19, 2015, 08:14:54 AM I just have a quick question , hopefully someone can give me some advice .
I have and Antminer S1 and a gawminer Bitfury , , now here is the catch , my internet has a data cap of 300gb a month , How much of that 300gb would my 2 little miners use ?

I cannot say exact amount. But miners are normally pretty small on data usage. Which miner do you mean with gawminer bitfury? Title: Re: Antminer S1 Post by: crazyearner on March 19, 2015, 08:05:20 PM S1 use very little data. Comes down to the data it uses and what pool and also difficulty you have the miner set to mine on. Might want to just get a monitor tool for the url its using and port etc and monitor the data used on it. Maybe looking at 1Gig or less next to nothing so with your data limits per month you should be fine.

Don't worry dude, with 300Gb quota you will be fine :) Title: Re: Antminer S1 Post by: Prelude on March 20, 2015, 03:17:48 AM I'd be surprised if you used more than 500MB per month with both rigs.

I cannot say exact amount. But miners are normally pretty small on data usage. Which miner do you mean with gawminer bitfury? I have the bitfury , its like 1.2-1.4 mgh . And thanks for all the replies on the help . I had forgot I posted this to see if anyone had any ideal on what they would use . Our cap is flying though the roof for some reason and i had to stop my mining for the moment . We cant figure out why or what it is . My son and me didnt thik it would be the miners since I use minerspool , supernova , coinminers and manhattenminer as my pools . i just didnt believe it was using that much to begin with .

I'll bet you're leaving your bitcoin wallet open. If so, that's where your bandwidth is going. The wallet can easily take a few GB per day, while mining is measured in KB or MB. Turn your wallet off, and your miners back on. Title: Re: Antminer S1 Post by: TimSweat on March 24, 2015, 05:51:12 AM I just have a quick question , hopefully someone can give me some advice .

The miner should be very small. Depending on wallet yes that could be it. Look in router and see if it shows bandwidth per item on it. If core wallet, yes i would close that on a restricted bandwidth internet plan.

i think it will be the same for the s1 or every other device Title: Re: Antminer S1 Post by: TimSweat on March 25, 2015, 09:55:37 AM they use nothing basically, i tried with two g-blade asic and they were using about 60kbps at peak and only when finding shares, so not always i think it will be the same for the s1 or every other device I want to thank everyone for their input . All the searching I did , I could really find nothing . After the wallet was mentioned , it kind of made sense to me since its downloading the block chain nonstop , especially when staking . Result , wallet got shut , I now have internet with a 300gb cap , and an internet with no cap at 1 mb download , but that one is on a trial of if I like , I keep it . So in short thank to everyone for their input on this problem .

I am using mycelium wallet on android phone, it's didn't used many data ;D |
