I have had a humongous reduction of shares registered and really decreased payout the past two days on Litecoinpool with an L3+.

The drop off has been from .22 LTC daily to .08 (for the last two days).

The unit is remote (and the VPN to access it's DHCP assigned IP to reach the interface is a hassle), so I'll have to visit it tomorrow, but before I make the trip to this particular "electricity providing lair", does anyone have any experience themselves the past two days or recently with Litecoinpool "acting up" as well?

I've done a search forum wide for "Litecoinpool" and have come up with nothing, which isn't encouraging that the issue is on their side ; and their tech support is very responsive, but when I checked in last week about the worker reporting very oddly high hashing values (as if it had just connected and not "settled out" yet), but they reported no issues or disconnections, beyond the one real disconnection as I pulled its connection from the new Cisco switch at this site (which I thought might also be the source of the issue), and then reconnected it (in a different port, just in case...) trying to troubleshoot.

Tech support saw the one real disconnection\reconnection cycle by checking the log for me, but nothing else. I had also seen the reported speed go to 0, sporadically as well, but with the number remaining green, as if it was still "connected".



So to recap because I'm so long winded:

Previously I had been running with earnings of 0.223~ every day, for weeks.

Is it the miner (most likely, and I will check it out tomorrow) or has Litecoinpool been acting up?

I really wish there were recent posts about sporadic "reported speed irregularities"...    Well here's to hoping my new unit isn't slowly destroying itself and the network connection is somehow sporadically failing...

Thanks in advance for any word.

edit: Adding image url of the earnings drop off for more impact - https://ibb.co/gTAVRm

the last cutoff column in the image is the Rewards...(but if you have my answer you already know that - but this is a forum and even those that don't know the answer are welcome to follow along
Also the PPS went to 102% .... is that relevant to the number of shares this unit generated?
