Received my miner today. So far (over 8h running) it made around 400 DGB, which is alot less than I expected or whattomine says.
I'm mining on Mining Pool Hub, since it was easy to setup und I'm pretty new to mining in general.
Am I doing something wrong? Do I have to do special settings except to point my miner on the pool? Like do I have to set the difficulty or something like that? And if so, how exactly do I do that?
Also sometimes my Dashboard on MPH shows that my hashrate is down to like 8GH/s or 5GH/s or once even 1GH/s but in the settings of the Miner it was constantly on over 10GH/s and I dont have auto switching activated so it cannot switch to other coins.. Why is that?

EDIT:
I just saw that sometimes when the hashrate on Digibyte-Groestl goes down I get hashrate on Myriadcoin-Groestl even tho I didnt allow my miner/worker to mine that coin. Why is that? Did anyone ever have a similar problem on Mining Pool Hub?

You are mining on Mining Pool Hub's Auto-switching Groestl port.

Port 17005 is their auto-switching Groestl port. It automatically switches to mine the most profitable groestl coin.

Mine to port 20499 to only mine DGB-Groestl.

Thanks alot. That helped!

Anyways, I got one more problem now:
I started to mine Verge 2 days ago on idcray. Yesterday when I looked in "Earnings" the last 24h I made over 1110 XVG but today its only 800. That is over 25% less. Do you know why that is? Also: Do I have to set the difficulty on my Baikal or some other properties or settings? All I did was pointing it at the pool adresse and put in my username.
And what does the idcray site mean by "mining different was changed for X10 ,plz check your miner."?

Thanks for helping!

I guess "different" should be "difficulty". I mined with VarDiff on idcray and the assigned diff was around 30-70. So the port for diff=50 should be fine. Maybe they added the 50 for Baikal X10 owners. All you have to do is to use port 10064 for a fixed difficulty at 50.

Okay did that but now my hashrate on idcray is around 6GH/s, even tho on my miner it still shows me 10GH/s. Is this right?

but isn't better to mine on 10063 port with var diff and let pool set a diff for your miner?

Since idcray is down, which Pool do you guys recommend for digibyte? MiningPoolHub, BlacksFactory, or suprnova? (and maybe: why do you recommend that pool and not the others?)

[bitcoinexplorer]

I am a big fan of Baikal but the support is getting very slow, which i did not expected from Baikal.

Trying reinstall of software does not bring any change.

I hope they reply soon because every day i am loosing several hours of mining and BTC revenues.

It clearly seems like a Ethernet port or Orange pi issue, i hope they reply soon because it is really annoying to keep baby sitting a miner which is supposed to work 24/7 without interruptions.

Any good pool of Verge Myriad Groestl?

Because the pool http://xvg-mg.idcray.com which previously lost some coins and denied to pay some of my coins which it lost just paying 500 coins for 24 hours where in it should be
769 coins.

Looks like a stable Pool? Its up for not even 1h. Probably your own pool or of one of your friends. There is nothing wrong with opeing own pool, but not to say it and to act like its already an esablished pool and call it "stable" after not even 1h uptime is shady to me. No thanks.

neither myself own nor my friends. I mined x11 and scrypt on his pools those are stable and honestly pays
He setup because i told him idcray cheater and community needs a stable honest pool.

Its upto you to use or not 
but definitely worth a try

Hello Everyone,

I've received my niner yestersay and been fighting with it since then.

I performed the SD card erase and the uploaded the software.

Inserted the card, started the miner, and then everything was working fine until I've started to update the pools (Nicehash). Then the miner went offline and gave me this error 111.

Anyone has an idea?

Performed multiple resets by turning off miner with no help....

Thanks guys.

BLINKING BLUE LIGHT FIX

I may have just stumbled on a fix for the blinking blue light issue. I haven't had a problem with it until last night. I restored one of my miners' settings from a backup and forgot to change the username under the pool configs, so two of my machines were hashing on the same pool with the same username. Got the blinking blue light. Reset the machines to have different usernames and everything has been working fine. This was mining on idcray-xvg pool, haven't observed the issue with other pools.

Hope this helps someone!

Update: just tried switching to MPH and got blinking blue on every machine. Checked the "Extranonce" box and did a power cycle, and so far, so good. Will post again if I continue to get errors on MPH.

Good effort, but i personally prefer MPOS based pools as it gives idea of how much coins i am going to get 

[valthonis]

I have 10 X10s

A couple issues i'm working through.

- Hash rate of miner is much less pool side
- Getting a "Miner down" error. It appears it is connected, but the miner is not started
- Boards sometimes stop working
- The units not currently working I'm getting a "Miner: 111 Connection Refused" error when I try to remotely reboot it.

Have you had any luck with zpool? I haven't been able to get it working either. I'm currently on miningpoolhub.
