DeepBit pool thread for newbies

Hi, I switched to the advanced worker's table for my account but it only shows the current MH/s for one of my workers. Why is this?

Problems connecting currently... down?

EDIT: Never mind it's working again!

I think that it's explained under the table.
It can only display the hashrate for workers that have been reset at least once.
BTW, it's not "current" MH/s, it's overall since the last reset.

I can't send a payment for some reason. I choose to send a payment, it gives me the message saying that my payment was sent, but then my balance is still the same and the transaction never shows up in my wallet. This has been happening all morning today. I'm not sure what's wrong.

Payments take up to 24 hours to send. No fear! :d

I was just confused because it's always been instant payment in the past.

There was a payments delay, already fixed now. Sorry about that.

I'm receiving numerous "Read timed out" errors running DiabloMiner with deepbit, log:

Are there any known connectivity issues with the server at the moment?

thanks for any ideas

Tycho, do you think you will ever get back over 5000 Gh/s like you were before the big multi pool DDoS? I can see ASIC's helping you with that very soon. BTW: When are you going to implement Stratum like eleuthria did?

Running DeepBit with a GTX 560ti 448 with flags -v -w 128 in GuiMiner and getting 142MH/s.

Any suggestions besides "Get better hardware"?

If your GPU temps are still ok when running the miner you can always try to overclock to get a few more Mhashes

Started out at 126MH/s with no flags and stock clocks.  Increased core by 80Mhz increasing it to 140MH/s, at the same time I lowered my memory clock as far as I could to try and keep the temperature in check.  I believe it's sitting around 70C, depending on the temperature in the room.

Added flags "-v -w 128" raising it to 142MH/s.

I'm sure I could overclock a little more, but I wanted to try everything else possible first to try and avoid as much heat as possible.

Got a new 140mm coming in the mail to fill the empty spot on the side of my case.  We'll see what that does, if anything.

Thanks for the reply!

Yes, I'm thinking about implementing some new protocol soon, but at this moment standard getwork is more than enough.
Also I don't think that hashrate drop was caused by DDoS.

No, not directly caused by it but I watched users fail to connect for a couple of days and never return in the same quantity. I think you lost people at that time because most people are lazy. If they are forced to configure a failover pool or mine at a smaller pool they will. That incident just made them do the configuration and 1500-2000 Gh/s never returned.

What just happened to the PPS rate? 0_0 Did it just have roughly a %50 cut?
EDIT: Ouch..nevermind. Didn't realize the cut down to 25btc per block happened. That was a few weeks earlier than anticipated.

[DeepBit]

Yes, exactly at the block #210 000

Hey, the site has been giving me problems all day and it seems to be down. Is there a problem right now?

[(^_^)]

My miner seems to have not been working all day, and I can't get on the site either.

[tymm0]

i had some trouble getting to the site and my miner couldnt connect but f0r me it looks like the site is still down.  my miner seems to be working...i think.

[DeepBit]

The problems are caused by the DDoS, as stated in the main thread.
If your miner still works you can continue mining.
