Hello,

I recently bought an ASIC miner just to give it a try and after a couple of days trying to set up the miner correctly i finally managed to get a stable hashrate.

The problem is when i try to connect to a pool i keep missing the target even when i was really close to hitting the target.

I tried switching to a different pool to see if i was banned from the pool or something but the issue persist no matter which pool i join and i even tried on NiceHash and the issue persist.

The miner has a stable hashrate but i never submitted a single share at 7218 MH/s.

The overall network hashrate is high but once in a while i see a share popping up but target is missing.


Any help, comments, thoughts, links or whatever would be greatly appreciated !



Have a nice day !

Hi,

Some people say you can only mine SHA-256 using cgminer but I've seen people using the --Scrypt parameter.

My question is :

How to force cgminer to use whichever algorithm I want to mine other than SHA-256 and Scrypt ?
