Title: Satellite internet ping and local pool Post by: Medow on February 19, 2015, 11:12:21 AM Hello:
We have a local pool using viper optics with ping between 100-200ms. We need to transfer our equipment to a place which we have no access to internet by regular ways except Satellite internet. The ping from Satellite is about 800ms. We need to know if this will effect the pool performance or not? And what is the best pool software to use which help us reduce the effect of high ping? Thank you.

Title: Re: Satellite internet ping and local pool Post by: eleuthria on February 19, 2015, 08:11:19 PM You will get 4-8x more stales on Satellite than your current connection (100-200ms vs 800ms). That is how your performance is affected by latency. There's no way to change that via software/pool choice.
You may end up even worse off than that, since most satellite connections are rarely able to hold an 800ms ping, they frequently go above that in my experience. Title: Re: Satellite internet ping and local pool Post by: Medow on February 19, 2015, 08:35:10 PM Thank you all.
Then it is better to stick with our current connection and make a wireless network using nano station which can give us a 10 km distance and that is enough to connect between our current location and the new connection (The distance is about 5 km). Do you think wireless connection can put more than 10 ms on our current ping? Title: Re: Satellite internet ping and local pool Post by: purpl3haze on February 22, 2015, 07:11:21 PM Thank you all.

Do you think wireless connection can put more than 10 ms on our current ping? yes especially considering that distance. much more than +10ms Title: Re: Satellite internet ping and local pool Post by: lowbander80 on February 25, 2015, 11:46:20 AM you can purchase two of these to connect your modems
