AND NEVER USE WIRELESS ...

+1

Especially on a wireless network you do for generic surfing.

If you MUST use a wireless network; get a separate router and have it on a separate channel with a completely different IP setup, etc. to reduce broadcast traffic.

Really you think Wireless has that much effect? maybe I should go by some power-line plugs as there's no other reasonable way to get ethernet to the garage lol

Power-line is even worse; don't know how your home is situated but if there is truly no standard wired Ethernet option you can do then the separate wireless network ( a decent N-based router on a separate channel/SSID) will give you better results than a Power-Line...

You sure you haven't mistyped your wallet address or something?

Huge difference for me even when the rig is the room next to the router... Not an N network but just one wall away ...

The easiest way to lower rejects is to ping each one of the servers and choose 2 or 3 with the lowest ping... Add the lowest as primary and the other as failover-only.

Wait for an hour and then monitor your miner to see what's the percentage of rejected shares. Rotate the servers above if needed until you get it.

AND NEVER USE WIRELESS ... unless you can not mine otherwise

I had the it pointed at the asia server but was losing loads of shares due to disconnects, So Its now pointed at the default server which has a very high ping, Don't have much chance, It keeps losing shares due to disconnects.

What are your pings to useast eu and amsterdam?

I've not tried the Amsterdam sever yet, But i imagine it will be similar to the others because I'm in Asia, For the love of god I wish the Asia server come out of beta.

You think its worth trying the Amsterdam server? I was getting around 330ms pings to the one in Ireland, Very similar pings to all the others except Asia which is around 67ms

(Edit , Just pinged Amsterdam, 413ms average)

tbh, I had given up to figure out this bizarre issue with my hashrate & stats started on late Sat and had switched to another, since I couldn't not explain as why this is happening.  I mean i see cgminer and cgwatcher reporting shares being submited regardless of being accepted or rejected and I knew the address was correct ( god sake is a copy and paste and had checked many times) but yet I couldn't get any stats reports from either MC or any third party programs. even put up those screen shots so maybe someone might be able to explain better as to what's happening, also tried to mine with a new address for at least 12hrs to see anything changes but nothing change same thing, cgminer reports submitting shares & etc...

I was pretty darn sure that the issue was not on my side, since I had checked every point of failure I could have thought of it at my peak moment of frustration , hence it got me suspicious of the pool on Monday. So today I jumped into accusing h2o prematurely since I couldn't explain it any other way and also saw few people reporting similar problems. But arguing  with you guys today got me curious as to why this has happened and got  me interested again to try to figure this out, could have simply walked away from it and not waste any time.

so finally decided to take the rig down, delete both cgminer and cgwatcher, flush the dns, clean %appdata%, reset the router & cable box. Made a fresh bat file and ran straight it from cgminer ( without cgwatcher) on the same old address just to test it.

 being doing its thing for roughly an hour and woala....

 middlecoin or any other reporting stats sits are reporting back correctly. I'm confused as hell, at the same time feel ashamed for accusing h2o ( my apologies). first thing first, I take back everything i said about robbing, the issue was on my side all along even though i don't know if it was a bug or a hack. still wondering where the shares being submitted to

kudos to you sir!!

I'm in EU and amsterdam is my lowest ping at 40ms which helps a lot with rejects. It's not like worth it or not... The best thing to do is test them all and then decide. After all it takes 1 minute to ping all servers

With such big pings you will get rejects. Just make sure you test asia more often and switch back when you see it online

I've set it up as failover to the main server, Fingers crossed Asia stays up and works well.


Would you mind telling me, And also anyone else for that matter, What your efficiency is in CGWatcher ?  I cant get mine above 31% no matter what I do.

I don't use it ... sorry

Really???

Good thing no one told me that when I first began mining.  I've been using wireless for half of my mining power since I began, and other than the occasional dropped connection, I have had no problems whatsoever.  In fact, my reject rate on that computer is lower even than that of my directly connected computer--which is quite low itself.  That computer is in the opposite end of my house . . . about 70 feet or more away from the router.

As far as I can tell, there's absolutely no reason not to use wireless as long as you have a strong connection.

whats the best way to back up your wallet Just the wallet.dat file ay?

Is there a way to update daily onto a USB or something else , I guess I can run a Batch file at a certain time daily which copies that new batch file and overwrites the new wallet.dat . On a USB, I am just scard my HDD just goes sudden death, Now that I actually have money I am VERY SCARED , yes paper wallet works but I am tlakaing about updating file daily since middlecoin pays daily I dont want to loose ANY money i made the previous day.

you don't need to update the wallet daily.
the only thing you really need is the private key, which if you don't change address, is the same since the day you created it.

[gtraah]

cool where do i get that from i use multibit wallet and how would i recover if hdd died with wallet.dat
