Step 3: Make sure your computer recognizes it through Device Manager. Windows should auto-recognize it.

URL: stratum.triplemining.com:3334
Username: (the username you used)_(the name of your "worker") <---dont forget the underscore!

**NOTE: For linux users, you HAVE to run cgminer as ROOT. Do not use sudo.
Bitcoin Wallet Setup (where your BTC will be held):
Step One: Choose an online wallet (mtgox, campbx, coinbase, etc) or an offline wallet (bitcoin-qt, multibit, etc). An online wallet is convenient to change into other funds (USD, EUR, etc) and an offline wallet is more secure.
Step Two: Obtain a deposit address from this wallet, a long string of 27-34 alphanumeric characters. Put this address into your "Payout Address" on triplemining under the Account tab.
Thats it! Good luck and thank for contributing!
