I have a small mining farm, 23 machine in total that have been spread out over a large building. I have over the last 6 weeks having building one room to put them all in and have been moving them there as my electric panel was upgraded. The new room had about 18 in them yesterday and I started having problems 1 machine would start hashing and then just reset after a few minutes as more were added to that network. I moved that machine back to an old room and is fine, has run for 12 straight hours. So I feel like this is the network connections because its the same PSU, same machine, just hooked up to a different switch. Heres how I get my cat 5 to the new room being that its pretty far away from modem:
Modem - 18 port switch - 5 port switch - 5 port switch- then main room 24 port switch
What should I look for in buying in a new switch to replace the older 5 port ones? MAC address table rating? as the 2 5 ports are only 1K
When I finally fix this I will be:
Modem - New 5 port switch - new 5 port switch - then 24 port switch
The 2 five port switches right now are netgear fs608v2 and fs608.
Have I bottled neck my network through one of these switches? All these machine were running fine and still do until I consolidate my network into this one new room with an upgraded electric panel and better cooling. Any suggestions on a new switch would be appreciated and will give a small tip to anyone that can give me a crash course on my networking issues.
Thanks
