yet when i mine at home, or at the hotel i stay at frequently i don't get these messages

Getting some stale work is normal. This happens when the server sends you new data but you send in work results based on old data at the same time. The work is then rejected. Up to 0.5% of your work being rejected is normal.

So the question is, are you seeing an abnormal ratio of rejected work?


Thanks for your reply

Bitminter client is reading:

Proofs of work accepted by the server: 2113
Proofs of work rejected by the server: 72

at time of writing

so yeah its a little high, but the fact that i see way more rejected when im on my work network than i do on any other network

Hi all

Just testing the water with bitcoin mining, i've been using my laptop and an icarus USB asic miner.

My problem is, when i'm mining at work, i see the following:

Code:
2013.11.26 [13:16]  2013.11.26 [13:00]  Work rejected. Server says: Stale or alien proof of work 
2013.11.26 [13:00]  Work rejected. Server says: Stale or alien proof of work
2013.11.26 [13:00]  Work rejected. Server says: Stale or alien proof of work
2013.11.26 [13:00]  Work rejected. Server says: Stale or alien proof of work
2013.11.26 [13:15]  Work rejected. Server says: Stale proof of work
2013.11.26 [13:15]  Work rejected. Server says: Stale proof of work
2013.11.26 [13:15]  Work rejected. Server says: Stale proof of work
2013.11.26 [13:15]  Work rejected. Server says: Stale proof of work
2013.11.26 [13:16]  Work rejected. Server says: Stale proof of work
2013.11.26 [13:16]  Work rejected. Server says: Stale proof of work


yet when i mine at home, or at the hotel i stay at frequently i don't get these messages


Any ideas / suggestions? i guess this is a network issue?


Thanks
