I've got a weird problem with zpool, though i suspect it might be my ISP causing the problem.

I can connect to https://zpool.ca with no problems
I can read the api with no problems.
My L3++ connects to stratum+tcp://scrypt.mine.zpool.ca with no problem,
My Baikal minis connect to x13,x14,qubit, and quark with no problems

however, none of my cpus and gpus (amd and nvidia) will connect to zpool.  however, these cpus and gpus will connect to the same algos that are offered on nicehash,ahashpool,blazepool,hashrefinery,miningpoolhub,nlpool, and zergpool before zergpool disappeared.

also, my l3 and baikals work on nicehash also.

so.. could possibly my ISP just be blocking specific ports on zpool only?


UPDATE.. i just tested scrypt,x13,x14,qubit, and quark. with my cpu running cpuminermulti 1.3.5 and i can connect with no problem... so it appears that it's just the ports that aren't scrypt,x13,x14,qubit, and quark that are being blocked... maybe.. er..


f.y.i. blockmasters.co is completely blocked for me.  problems with zpool started showing up a few days after i could no longer access blockmasters.co

The problem was with my ISP (AT&T)

I just upgraded my ISP (AT&T) from 75mbps (ADSL from AT&T) to 1gbps(fiber. still  AT&T).   Now i get connectivity to zpool for mining, and i can now access blockmasters.co

the modem stayed the same.  apparently their modems do ADSL and Fiber.  They just had to connect the fiber line and allow access at their center.

Fucking AT&T 

well, this is great to hear. Thanks for following up. I guess baikals are sensitive to the network speeds, but one would think a 75Mbps line would be sufficient.

Cheers

Hi Crackfoo

My password line in my .bat file is:
c=BTC,x17=23,x16r=21,x16s=21,phi2=9.7,bcd=.028,lyra2z=5,phi=41,aergo=9.1,skein=.82,allium=10.7,lyra2v2=.0675,hex=.0175,lbk3=.44,polytimos=48,c11=33,x22i=12.3,sonoa=3.57,hmq1725=14.3,tribus=.131,bitcore=38

It selects bcd at the right times, but zpool (or yiimp) also reads bcd=.028 as d=.028 and sets that as difficulty. Other algos that come after bcd in the line above then also have difficulty set at .028

e.g. Currently mining x22i and from the zpool legacy website:

Details   Extra   Algo   Diff   ES**   Hashrate*
CryptoDredge/0.10.0   F,c=BTC,x17=23,x16r=21,x16s=21,p   x22i   0.028      7.8 MH/s
CryptoDredge/0.10.0   J,c=BTC,x17=23.5,x16r=21,x16s=21   x22i   0.028      5.7 MH/s
CryptoDredge/0.10.0   P,c=BTC,x17=23,x16r=21,x16s=21,p   x22i   0.028      4.1 MH/s

Can you please advise, thanks

has nothing to do with the speed of the network...unless it's at&t.  four hours after the switch over, started having problems again with cpu/gpu not able to get work from zpool again.  never had a problem with comcast/xfinity/verizon/timewarner.

at least i was able to get on zpool for four hours with AT&T..

two of three baikal mini able to connect, and my L++ is able to connect again.    til at&t screws it up again.

I see that the algo sha256 is having major issues!

Can you please advise, thanks

There is a chance it could just be coincidence.

if you increase its normalization factor up to some arbitrary number (this will also influence your miner to swap to that algo, which helps us test quickly) lets say 0.28;  see if it indeed carries over to the difficulty setting.

If this is the case;  I would think someone screwed up a variable in the yiimp code by mistake....   seems like an easy enough variable to use by accident.

Yes If I set e.g. x22i to a high value and bcd to a low value so that it will always choose x22i, then it takes the value for bcd as the difficulty. I can change it at will:

-p c=BTC,x22i=120.3,bcd=.012

and on zpool it shows: CryptoDredge/0.10.0   P,c=BTC,x17=23,x16r=21,x16s=21,p   x22i   0.012      13.4 MH/s

and the miner also shows the same difficulty is being used: [05:49:37] INFO  - Setting new difficulty: 0.012

So, by changing the value for bcd in the password field I can change the difficulty it will use to mine other (not all) algos

Hoping that crackfoo will test and pass a message to yiimp devs (if they are still active)

Why was BTCP changed to ninja?

will I get paid for my current past work my Antminer Z9  since blocks are being found under ninja?

because it's behind on payments and don't want more miners choosing it as a payout.

Ok. it will catch up when blocks are found by the pool and I can swap back?

Hi,

We have now opened registrations for our hash renting service called HashTap™ (https://www.hashtap.ca/) This service is aimed to be a spec miners paradise allowing you to rent hash on 40+ algorithms from the miners of zpool.ca.  Keep in mind, you can not rent hash from HashTap™ and point it at zpool.ca.  We're in the early stages so please, if you find any issues use the HashTap™ support channel once it's opened up.

Cheers

https://github.com/MrPlusGH/NPlusMiner/releases/tag/4.5.2

NPlusMiner with GUI and AutoUpdate

Candidate for AutoUpdate = Yes
       - NPlusMiner checks for updates every 24 hours.
       - If you do not want to wait, simply restart NPlusMiner and it will pick it up on startup

   - Almost all miners updated to latest version. Re-benchmark is recommended.
   - Added suport for Dedal and ZHash
   - Earning Tracker code reviewed and optimized.
      - Now only one worker covers all pools
      - Better performances and memory management
      - Earnings Tracker now gets some memory and won't reset on restarts
         - Note that it only records while NPlusMiner is running. So it will miss data if not running for long.
   - Introducing graphical display of last seven day earnings
   - Introducing graphical display of current earnings per pool
   - Added NLPool support

This is awesome and should bring more miners to the pool I no you have a profit section and I like the new look but I find it harder to figure out which algo is paying the best is there anyway you could add a spot or page that says the most profitable algo for amd and nvidia doesn't have to be a big list just the top 1 or 2 algos this way we dont have to go through all the algos with a calculator

the problem is:   The profitability factor depends on what make/model of GPU and in what condition/config on your machine....   so it could vary from person to person based on just these caveats.
