Title: deepBit - connections failures Post by: Som30ne on June 13, 2011, 12:32:04 PM Im new to this BitCoin thing.
In the last few days I tried several pools (since I understood that a stand-alone mine, will never get anything with the hardware available to me). I have problems with a few (firewall probably) (for example with mining.bitcoin.cz - Is there a way to configure a proxy ? how ? - but this is another subject) So I tried using DeepBit - which I can connect to, but I get a lot, and I mean a LOT of errors, and time outs. for example: Error 801901F7 Error 80072EFD: A connection with the server could not be established Error 80072EE2: The operation timed out I do establish connection, and I can do work, and the work is accepted, but - a LOT of time is spent waiting, and recovering these errors. Is there a problem with the server ? Is there a problem on my side ? (I tried from several sites, with different ISP, and different network configuration, but got the same behavior) Many Thanks in advance.

What hardware are you using? Is your internet connection stable? Which pools have you tried? Deepbit has been under DDoS attacks a couple of times the last few days as far as i know.

Windows + ufasoft - bitcoin-miner Im using a 3 years old machine (it did not have any problems connecting to mining.bitcoin.cz, except when it was totally blocked by firewall) Yes, internet connection is stable. I tried deepBit, and mining.bitcoin.cz. Any other(s) I should try ? (Is there a list of all of them ?) Title: Re: deepBit - connections failures Post by: hamburger on June 13, 2011, 12:49:06 PM Hi,
It's been like this for the past two days on both of them - I am now looking for a new pool to join.

I have had good experiences with both Bitcoins.lc and BTCGuild.com Title: Re: deepBit - connections failures Post by: djgtr on June 13, 2011, 12:58:14 PM Try using ozco.in its a small pool but it seems to work well
