Yeah the interesting part is that it works great with triplemining... no idea.

I"ll try BFGMiner thanks for the heads up... hopefully I Can run both still with that one. 

Further testing shows that its only with deepbit.  It will time out or something with "Connection problems" and then I have to hit "Stop" and then "Start" and it works fine for a short while, then repeat. 

Thankfully I have a backup so im not wasting anything but I would like to keep it 50/50 between the two pools.  Any ideas or alternative miners I could use?  Am I the only one with issues connecting to deepbit on a consistent basis?

Hey everyone... In a blatant attempt to increase my post count I am introducing myself.  My name is "wcrax" and Im relatively new to bitcoin.  First heard about it on security now with Steve Gibson and am kicking myself for not jumping in then... so Im making up for lost time in a pool at the moment with my new toy (7950).

I plan on writing a podcast player for Android (personal, open source project) that I hope to eventually accept bitcoin donations for.  Im up to .04 now (mining, no donations).

EDIT:  Sorry, for some reason I thought the "Introduce yourself" topic was a sub-board and tried to post this there... not realizing I could have combined both (this and my first post).  My bad...

Hey everyone... Im new to the bitcoin scene and was wondering if someone could assist me in an issue I am having.  Im running a 7950 and am currently working with deepbit.  I am also using the GUIMiner software... for some reason I am getting very erratic MH/s values.  Its suppose to stay right around 500 but it randomly drops to 250 and recovers and repeats.  I am also seeing alot of "Connection problem" messages in the speed column.

As a test, I jumped over to triplemining for a little bit and it was rock solid for days.  Constantly around 500 and I never saw a connection issue.   

Is this my issue or something with deepbit and should look elsewhere?  Thanks for the help everyone!
