I have a question, what if you're in the middle of updating prices, someone rents your rig for one of your rates, but since you're updating them, you end up removing the rate plan they rented your rig at... what happens?

Someone just rented from me and they didn't enter their pool info. Check your entries and switch to your pool.

The main rigs page already displays a countdown clock for each rented rig.  It might be nice to see this in the admin panel as well.  I also suggested that djeZo include a timezone field in the admin panel to auto-adjust times, which I believe he said is on his list of features to add.
I just look at the rigs page and use the find option to find my rig. I have to time little tweaks I do between rentals.

Whoever has my rig rented right now, your pool is dead. There's 3 hours left if you want to switch to another pool.

It'd be neat if we had away to contact our renters directly for issues. Maybe have a box in the admin page that, if the renter enters an email address, it would be populated with it, so we can contact them with issues.
You should enter a second pool if the first one dies, so you can get the most from your money.

This is one good way to solve issue of restarted rigs. I will call this command after each pool change. If you would like to use it on your rig, then add "save" command in permission list.

If you're saving the customer pools when a pool is added - which is a nice idea by the way - does this get wiped after the lease finishes??  (or would you need to call a restart on cgminer to achieve this?)

It gets wiped with your default pool you configured. Each call to add, remove or switch pool will also call save method. When adding default pool, save is called the same way...

Ok thanks. I will enable on mine once the current lease expires. If you're doing this, I think you may as well issue a few more commands at the start of the lease  and delete all the rig owner's pools - save the person who's leasing the hassle, and would make it less confusing for the renter. They're not going to think "whose are these pools??!?!". I know I did when I rented someone else's rig as a test...

Also a suggestion for the site if I may : some way of telling how far through a lease you are when you rent a rig. You get a start time and an end time, but there's no "current" system time - I had to look up what the time zome of the system was!   Ideally you'd have a readout of how long you've got to lease expiry too I guess.

Thanks again for a great service.


An easy way to do this, without messing with timezone calculations, is just pop up a little countdown timer. Smiley

Question: I am in the admin panel. I put the mining address in and press update. Should something happen now ?

Shouldn't I be able to set prices or something
I had to refresh a couple times for all of the options to show up, but yes, you should see current hashing and current pool at the top, switch and default pools, declared hashrate, and price setting at the bottom.

HELP!!!!

As with my post above, does anyone have any suggestions on how to enable 3 rigs that im unable to open up ports to work.

I can setup a router to forward once the API request comes to a particular machine....

Any suggestions appreciated.
You could switch them to listen on a port that you know is open, like 80 or 443. Set your router to route incoming traffic from his IP, switch his port to 443 in the router (usually in the port forwarding section), and send the traffic to your rig's local IP. If you set up your rig to listen for that traffic on 443, it should grab it and be good to go.

We do not have access to the router to change settings. The machines are located in 2 server rooms at a friends work. Admin will not open up any ports for machines.

I need a way to send API request to a pc here at my house and redirect it somehow to the machines.

I use teamviewer to manage machines now, so im sure there should be a way to access them.
Have you tried it with the team viewer connection enabled?

Suggestion for miners: please consider listing hire contracts shorter than 24 hours. People like myself will be willing to pay a higher rate for a shorter period, especially when experimenting with this service (and remote mining in general). If there's a good enough turnover of buyers (and so far there seems to be) you will net more per day by offering more than just a single 24 hour period option.

Perhaps the minimum hire period could also be listed on the mining rigs list. This should improve takeup, since buyers don't have to look at every individual rig page to figure out whether they offer several different options, or only 24h.

I can vouch for this, i have mine setup for 1,2,4,6,8,10,12,18,24hours and i made more 2 days ago by a lot of people just renting my rig for 1 hour intervals. and of course the longer you rent the cheaper it gets for how i have mine setup.
Is there an easy way to do it without doing math?

And ya know, djeZo, another tip is you could give the leaser the option for how long, up to 24 hours, they want to least the rig for, and just add in a percentage calculation for shorter lease times.

Wireless connection is generally a bad idea for mining rigs. You need fast responses to reduce stale shares. Wireless can give you spiking latencies and could be the cause of why your rig is sometimes displayed as OFF.

I will change "Stability" to "Connection stability", which this actually refers to.

I've never had an issue with it, but I'm adding 8GB more ram to the rig in a few days so I think it will be more stable with regard to your site. Connection wise it's 100% stable. I just have everything else clocked down so low that the added traffic from your site may have pushed the wireless too far on the machine itself.

You could have 2 ratings. Something like a ratio of declared speed to actual speed, since you seem to be monitoring both. And having a maintenance button that stopped monitoring so doing maintenance doesn't count towards our numbers would be nice too.
I've been doing tests, and I think the only way I'm going to be able to be stable on your site is to run a long ass cable out to where my rig is. I'll do that tomorrow. I believe I have one long enough, otherwise I'll have to make one. I should be stable by tomorrow... is there a way to reset my connection status number when I make the change tomorrow so I can start fresh again?

I never have any issues mining, just with the status on your site. Pings to the rig from my computer are 20ms and under, with a couple 400's here and there, and pings to google.com from the rig itself return 5 - 10ms, with a few random 500's, no drops. But I'll wire it in, that should fix all connection issues. It's possible Linux just doesn't work well over wireless, because no other device in the whole house, mobile, tablet, or desktop, ever have issues downloading, streaming, or online gaming. I even stream movies from my computer, over wifi, to my xbox, and it never skips once.

I blame Linux. Smiley

I just have everything else clocked down so low that the added traffic from your site may have pushed the wireless too far on the machine itself.

The only thing that would help is if you connect your rig to internet via cable, not wirelessly.

Well, like I said, I have never had an issue with it. I keep checking it when it goes offline on your site, and it never stops hashing or communicating with the pool it's attached to, and the pool my renter set up never changes, so as a renter they should have nothing to worry about, but I'll look at it. I'm running wireless N at 270mb speeds an on expensive router/AP running a stable dd-wrt flash, so I'm not sure how a wired 100mb connection would make things better. I game online, my step-son games online, and my connection quality never drops.

But again, I'll look at it and make 100% sure there's not an issue on my end. The last thing I want is for a renter to be unhappy with any service I provide.

Alright, someone rent from me, I think I got everything set up right. I've got 6, 12, and 24 hour prices, and I've set up my normal pool to mine when I'm not being rented. Unfortunately the site keeps showing my rig as offline randomly so my stability never gets above 70%. Why is it doing that? I'm watching my rig and it never drops, and I'm watching the dashboard of my pool that I mine and my hash never drops, so the rig isn't actually dropping, why is the site saying it's OFF sometimes?

I am having the same problem, but not to the same extent.

I have my rig leased currently, no problems, it's hashing away, no disconnects since beginning of the lease, but my rig is periodically showing offline for a short period of time on leaserig.net. It is definitely *not* offline - I was sitting here watching it hash away happily on the leaser's defined pool the last 2 times it showed as "offline" for a short period on the website...

I'm currently showing as under 98% stability, this is not a true representation. How does the site test reliability?

If I was paying my hard-earned to lease a rig, and had the choice between 98% supposed reliability and 100% reliability, it's not a hard choice.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions to fix.

If your rig has bad internet connection, this can happen. I have very strict timing rules to prevent spending too much time waiting for single mining rig. If connection is not established within 2 seconds, rig is reported as OFF, if data is not sent within 2 seconds, rig is reported as OFF.

Quote from: djeZo
Keep in mind that it isn't just quality of your connection. If you do some heavy duty downloading or uploading, that can higher your latencies, thus can show your rig as being OFF.

Also if you're doing some stuff on your rig (I had to do a teamviewer session once to see something) your latency will increase, are you using your rig or just hashing?

My rig is dedicated to mining, it does nothing else, and I've never had an issue with any kind of connection before. I have a dual channel wireless N in my house, and a 50mb/20mb dedicated internet line.

djezo, I am not sure I setup the cgminer config file right. I put in the api listen command you gave in the example.conf file

Scroll back a page or 2 and look at my command line example, you put that second command line from the instructions (not the first one, the one he has after he had checked the API readme) at the beginning of your actual command line. I put mine after the --scrypt at the beginning.

Woah, the site just freaked out and everything is showing off now.

It's back to normal now, what happened there?
38  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] LEASERIG.NET - renting & hiring of mining rigs - ONLINE AGAIN! on: January 25, 2014, 03:23:21 PM
Hey,

I am very interested in renting one of my rigs aswell. It runs at 1.54MH/s. Are people paying 0.025 per MH? meaning I would get 0.0385BTC for 24h or are the prices on the website for the total hashpower?

I tried to sign up, but there was no captcha so I couldn't register. Or do I have to do that through here?

Thx


I had the same problem. tried going to the site to register there is a box for my email address but no Captcha shows up. When I just put in email address it says that I haven't entered the Captcha correctly. Kinda hard to do that when it isn't there.



Captcha is having issues, just retry. If it still doesn't work, try again in 5 or 10 mins. I don't know what is google doing with it these days :/

You have to reload the whole login page to try the captcha again. I figured that out after a lot of trial and error trying to log in, you can't just hit back because it won't take that captcha anymore. Hit back and reload the page to get a different captcha, it should work then. I usually hit refresh until I get one I can actually read too.

Still waiting for a reply to get started, everything should be all set up and ready to go on my end.

Actually, here's another idea. How about a percentage payment, where instead of an upfront payment, your payment can be a percentage of the person makes mining and selling their coins.

I'd be fine with LTC as a payment. That's what I'm mining right now anyway.
