Yes, if you are just learning about mining, Minergate can seem appealing, but the miner software they use doesn't give you the best performance, and there are many fees to get your coins out of their system. Nicehash is a better alternative to use until you are more comfortable with setting up your own mining software to mine to your own wallets or exchange wallets. The more you read here, the better you will get this comfort, but in the mean time Nicehash is very easy to setup, just run the EXE, benchmark your system, and Nicehash will choose the most profitable algorithms for your system, and then pay you in BTC. |

So I have been trying to figure this out and i have narrowed it down a little. Even though new routers will work with both rigs for around 16 hours before they connection becomes choppy. The routes dont actually seem to be breaking, they just stop working with the Linux rig. They work fine with the windows 10 rig and my normal computer running windows 7.
As soon as i plug the linux rig in they internet becomes choppy.
I have tried this system with just 3 video card same problem persists.
used different Ethernet cords.
Replaced the Modem:Did not fix the problem.
Any thoughts on what i should fix on the rig to resolve this problem? maybe get another NIC ....?
Do you have a wifi card, or USB adapter you can try on the linux rig? If it's stable using wifi then there may be an issue with the NIC or ethernet cable you were using. |

There's also Awesome Miner for your Windows based rigs. It's free for up to 2 rigs. It offers a dazzling array of settings and options to get the most out of your rigs, and once you get your head around the concepts is easily one of the best in my opinion. The developer is also very active and will work on bugs and features very quickly.

Windows 10 RDP has functionality issues with miners. I prefer Team Viewer, which allows full control as well as file transfer and is free for personal use. It also has smartphone apps for on the go access.
except teamviewer has its own set of problems with miners, like reducing hashrate on one gpu among other things. if yall are using claymores miners why not use his miner manager, Are you sure Teamviewer reduce hashrate for one gpu ? Never heard about that before Source ? How much would it reduce ? Thanks Any time you use your primary GPU to display graphics, it will affect that primary GPU's hashrate. It doesn't matter if it's the console, RDP, Teamviewer, VNC or others. When you are done with your remote session, stop the session. Problem solved. |

You are right about monitoring protecting me from losses.
However i think that parsing a few values and sending a mail based on those is fair for 35 bucks.
The app will run in the remote-subnet where the miners are so i can only use the gui via RemoteSession.
The "cloud service" (if i got it right the webfrontend to logon) is charged extra on that awesome-miner.
Thats a bit of a bummer for me. Even if i payed the 4$ for their webserver, i needed the "professional" version.
So i pay 70$ once and in a year i pay 48$ for access to a webfrontend.
120$ in the first year.
You can use the cloud service with any level of the base Awesome Miner software. So, you can buy the $35 for the base software, and then get the $4 a month cloud service on top of it. If you just buy the $70 base software then you get the web server, and then you can do a port-forward on your firewall to access the system that is running AM. You will then have the full web interface with remote capability for only a $70 one time cost. The cloud service is a convenience offered if you don't want to open your firewall or can't. There's obviously a monthly fee for this for Patrike to maintain the service and pay for the server. |

Ideally, you'd want to run nodes from different providers. This will have two effects, you will strengthen the node network with this diversification, and if your VPS provider has issues, then your other nodes will still be up. If you host multiple nodes on your own computer/network, the same thing applies. If your system crashes, then your multiple nodes will be down. |

What is the best pool now after those hacks.
I was on yiimp and now on chainworks
But I dont like cw.
It looks like I am geting less then on yiimp
I'm partial to Brutum. http://brutum-pool.com/The tribus hashrate has exploded recently... |

The windows binary latest downloaded getting deleted by mcafee indicating it as virus infected. Dev team should fix it .
All who running QT wallet should be careful
You'll need to make an exception in your AV software. Many AV software will see mining software and wallets as false positives. You can also submit it to your AV company as a false positive. AV will generally caution on the safe side in case you are subject to a botnet. |

Please someone could refer an IOS app for the use of the AM API?
Thanks
If you are using the web server feature of AM, then any web browser will do. If you mean a true app that interfaces with the AM API, I'm not aware of any. If you are a good IOS or Android app developer, then I'm sure that would be a neat revenue stream for you. Patrike encourages other developers to create bolt-ons. I'm considering diving into a bolt-on for data mining analysis. |

I noticed yesterday until the miner's display it showed my miner had 2 hardware errors but when I went to the GPUs tab all of my six GPUs showed zero errors. What's up with that?
This is what the mining software is reporting. It may not be a true hardware error, as I believe AM treats all blips in the mining software as a "hardware error" so that it is displayed in the AM console somewhere so you can see something happened. |

Thank you!
Everything is working as expected. One of the problems was Windows Firewall.
The concept of profit switch is very crazy, in a few minutes I have mined more than 7 different coins. I set to update profitability every 1 minute for testing. If the numbers I am seeing are true my profit will go up ~10%. I do not understand why the big miners do not do it.
I caution you to be careful about your estimations. I know you are just testing with a 1 minute profit switch, but you have to realize that you are only mining a profitable coin at that instant. By the time you go to exchange with your accumulated coins they will not be at the same level of profitability. If you are just accumulating various coins to exchange later when the exchange rate is high, that's fine. But... If you are depending on pool auto-switchers, or pool threshold minimums sending to an exchange, then you will more than likely miss your "peak profit window" unless you have a large group of miners to accumulate enough coins to get there in time. Also, you probably already know this, but a profit switch time of 1 minute is too low. You will lose valuable time in that 1 minute window while the software is switched, and the GPUs ramp up. Depending on the algo and software, it can take 30 seconds or more to really ramp up, so you could be losing 50% of your potential earnings by ramping up every minute. As always, do your own real-world tests, but I think you'll find what I'm saying is true. Most large farms don't switch so often, and go for consistently strong coins most of the time or diversify across a set of the most profitable. I do not know if I'm correct, but is it mandatory to benchmark one or all of the GPUs so that the profit profile correctly chooses the best ratio? I would say yes, because the default values that come in the built-in profit profiles are very rough estimates. There are many factors that will cause your GPUs to be higher or lower than the default values... GPU silicon lottery, over/underclocking, and general system performance to name a few. You want your real-world values to be in the profit profile, otherwise AM can make a wrong decision for you. FOr instance, if you don't set your true dual-mining Dcred value, then AM may decide that your ETH+Dcred values are very high and start mining with it... thinking it is the most profitable when it probably isn't. It is possible in the next versions to include Ratio counter: x.xxxx BTC/Day because this is the only way to make profit comparisons between rigs and GPUs of different currencies and MHs, Hs, Sols, GH / s Can you explain this a little more? When mining with EWBF Zcash, the interface (my miners) goes offline but still mining, I do not know if this is a bug but it always happens.
I've seen this happen from time to time as well. I haven't verified this, by my suspicion is that the rig may be taxed a bit when this happens. |

damm, it seems that awesome-miner has some kind of monopoly now.
Most freeware-projects are dead or do not offer notification-settings.
The aweseome-miner is a bit clunky on my Eeepc-screen.
I have to kill it by taskmanager to exit, because the whole window is not visible to click on "X" and the ESC-key is not recognized.
35$ for mail-notification is a bit high imho
Would you rather lose profits by not being notified? Time is money in mining... $35 is not a lot in the grand scheme of things. You could make that back in a month or less depending on how big your mining operation is. |

I'm experiencing a few very odd things with benchmarking. Great feature, thanks! AM seems to forget about benchmarking occasionally. I benchmark all algo's, "Save to profile," then start mining. Here I run into the first issue. AM will not mine anything except to an XMR pool with suprnova that I do not have configured. I don't have any XMR pools nor do I have do any mining at suprnova. I have no idea where this is coming from. I can start and stop the miner all I want and it will only mine XMR until I reboot the host. Then it works just fine using the pools that I actually have configured. It does this every single time on every single profit miner. I have screenshots but not really sure how to attach here.
So after reboot I'm running on my pools. Great! Then comes the loss of hashrates from the benchmarks. I think this is related to profit groups. I haven't found the trigger, but every few hours I'd look to see what AM was doing and find that all the hashrates were back to the default. I believe it's related to groups because after I set each miner to a single GPU profile rather than a group it stopped happening (so far...).
Lastly, once everything in benchmarked and rebooted the miner appears to pick the most profitable coin/algo, however it is not listed on the "Coins" tab. The algo isn't even on the page so I have no idea why it's not mining one one of the top couple of coins. I double checked this on WhatToMine, the data source, and it's no where to be found there either. According to AM math, it is mining something more profitable than the #1 item on the Coins page though, so maybe this isn't all that bad?
If it helps, I'm configured for only zpool right now while trying to figure out some of this oddness.
Thanks!
Did you save your benchmarks as a profit profile? And did you assign the profit profile you created from your benchmarks to your profit miner? This is where it really ties all together for AM. It will use your benchmarked profit profile, compare it to the coins tab or online services tab (depending on how you setup profit switching) and then mine the most profitable coin or algo based upon what is enabled. |

Things like this already exist. You have Awesome Miner that works with Windows based rigs, and Simpleminer OS that provides a Linux based rig. Both have cloud monitoring and control.

A straight transfer of funds from an exchange to another exchange (or external wallet) in the same currency is always going to be cheaper than trying to change currencies and then transferring funds. You lose money in the exchange to another currency.

how many magnatum per day do you expect ?
Around 250 / day Why magnatum? It doesn't even have an exchange yet. |

please i need suggestion of server psu 2400 or higher
but with voltage input range 100-240v
not 200-240
if not present what is the biggest server psu with input 100-240
You are going to have a hard time finding one. Power(watts)=Volts*Amps so... 2400 watts divided by 120v would be 20 amps. Most household electrical circuits on 120v are on 15 amp breakers. You should really only use 80% of a circuit, so the maximum you should put on a 15 amp breaker would be 1440 watts at 120 volts. This is why 2400 watt PSUs will only work on 220-240V. The wiring is a much lower gauge, which means it can handle more current (amperage), and thus can handle the higher wattage. Plus 240V circuits are usually on larger breakers to accommodate the larger wattage and amperage. . . . thanx for the explanation but what 'll happen if i ran this psu on 180 volt ? the problem is where i live we have public problem in voltage normal voltage is 170-200 volt varying all over the day according to the load this is the cause to look for a psu 100-240 It will not power on at 180V. The minimum is 200V |
