if i set a price of 0.00004, and the lowest price was to buy was 0.00005, would I get paid the higher or the lower rate?
You get paid the price you set. |

You're most likely seeing problems with open connections / NAT tables rather than bandwidth. I'd just configure a few of your miners to act as routers as well. How many machines do you have running Linux? Linux is dead simple to configure as a router. Only a few commands and config so it starts on boot.
If you config'd one machine out of 8 to be a router then the NAT tables for that group would be reduced to only one entry on the "master" router. The master router can just aggregate the Linux routers.
Anyway, if you want something independent - I set up a miniITX board as an Ubuntu router with Gigabit ports. It can handle huge amounts of traffic with thousands of open connections without problems. Much more than eg. my Linksys WRT54GL, which can only handle 100-200 open connections before bogging down (tested with BitTorrent).
Any spare board and an extra LAN card can be setup as a router this way.
Hey BkkCoins, I have 18 rigs right now running linux. I have two switches, which each have a port going to the router. I also think you are correct on the open connections. jimbit recommended tomato on a compatible router. Per the FAQ, it can handle 4096 open connections. I think I'll be doing this. |

I think BAMT still has a ways to go to better integrate cgminer as lodcrappo suggested. When I stop mining with a rig in gpumon with shift+d and then try to start again, something weird happens and cgminer will not start back up.
can you be more specific? what about stop/start from command line, are there messages? cgminer takes a while (maybe 2 minutes) to get going, are you waiting for it to be ready? i can stop and start it OK here on test machine, but resources for testing beyond that are very limited. I think I was doing a shift+d then a shift+r instead of shift+s. I think i am just used to hitting shift+r. Didn't try it with the command line. |

Wish I had more than 3ghash to throw at the site, the pay rate here is pretty rad  how much do you get paid per share? You set your own price. |

What is the connection speed at the moment? How high is the throuput cgminer produces at the moment? What throuput would you need with ~60 GHash?

I am assuming you are asking about my internet connection speed? Currently it is 2Mb up and 1Mb down. I am not that skilled in network analysis and have not researched what is needed to look at the network traffic. |

i don't think that wrv210 can even handle custom firmwares.
all miners behave the same way when it comes to connections. 1 constant longpoll connection + a few http GET. If i were you, i would get a high quality network switch that can handle all the persistent connections. a better internet connection wouldn't hurt either.
Is there specific router / switch hardware you would recommend? |

Hello fellow bitcoiners,
I have started to migrate over to cgminer and have found that my router cannot handle all of the extra traffic that cgminer generates. I currently have a cisco wrv210 (small business) router and wanted to get others opinions on what router and firmware you are using to handle the traffic cgminer creates. I am running 32Gh right now and it will so grow to double this so I need a pretty robust solution.
Also, if you have any cgminer specific optimizations around network traffic, I would like to hear about them also.
Best,
gigavps

Setting up cgminer on all 18 rigs now!!!!!!!!! Looks like lodcrappo earned the bounty I put up. Will be coming this weekend! |

MintCondition,
Could you please be more specific about what pools you are mining on and how you choose which pools you are mining. Are you using bithopper, or some other custom software?
It would seem that while you have "come clean" about what you are doing with shares you have not explained the how.
Are you pool hopping proportional pools with other miner's hashes?
Thanks,
gigavps

I agree that it does seem shady for a pool to send it's power off somewhere else without telling it's miners. If gigavps can verify the information I would be interested in seeing it.
As Goat stated, GPUMAX had nothing to do with this deal and wouldn't condone such an operation.
I would like Giga's thoughts on this and then would like to give ABC a chance to come out and let us know what is going on. If they do not want to clear this up I guess we can post everything we know. Would making public gigaminer's Singular phone account be too much? lol yeah we know who you are:) I only brought this issue up in the thread to make sure they knew that their hashing power was being redirected, I just wanted to make sure it was not stolen. That is why I have not paid ABC their coins yet, just wanted that confirmation I got via PM recently. Anyway until this gets sorted, or you post a BTC address in the thread I am going to hold onto the coins... I did think that it was GPUMAX at first just because damn, 400G but after checking we know it is not GPUMAX. The information provided looks legitimate. It shows a request for work coming from an amazon ec2 IP address for the worker "gigaminer". It also shows a response with a valid solution to a block. I am admittedly not an expert in these matters and have been asked to keep the information private. I will let the owners of the information provide it. |

I too have a very uneasy feeling about them not answering. I will not be hashing on this pool anymore.
I would seriously recommend that unless MintCondition and Chlorine can give concrete proof that they are consistently finding blocks with their own bitcoind, then all miners should leave the pool immediately.
It making me sick to think that these guys have abused the trust of their miners to pool hop.

According to BTCGuild, the current PPS rate is 0.0000363.
On gpumax, the current price to buy per share is 0.0000572.
Using 20,000 shares, that would cost me 1.144BTC. In return, I would only get 0.726BTC from BTCGuild.
Why would anyone wants to do that?
I can see a reason to buy if the price to buy is quoted in USD. But if I am paying in BTC, and receiving in BTC, what am I to gain from this?
Don't do it if you don't get it. Others are and are profiting..... |

Looks like there is some extra output when running gpumon. Just wanted to let you know in case this was not intentional.
if you mean the performance history that scrolls on the lower part of the screen, it is intentional. to switch from overview to a specific GPU, press shift+# of gpu. this allows you to easily see any changes in hashrate, temp, etc over several minutes. to toggle between the new history view and the pool stats view, press h or did you mean something else? Nope. That's the one. Thanks for starting back in on the project. I know I'll be donating! |

Anyway they do not mine blocks or have rounds so they can't post this...
related, ABC pervz, would the control of gigaminer please contact me. If you don't I will just post the data here...
Are you accusing abcpool.co of using others hashing power to pool hop? Do you have evidence of this? |

I think it would be nice if bitcoin payouts showed up in the "transactions" area. That could be an easy way to see the history of payments...

For all who are interested, BAMT can now be updated to include phoenix 1.7.4 which means that if you run BAMT, you can run on p2pool with a simple upgrade! This should mean that some pretty big mining farms can now run on p2pool.
If you switch over your BAMT farm, please donate to jedi95, forrestv and lodcrappo for making it possible to run BAMT and p2pool together!
