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

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)

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

middlecoin.com stats and TeamViewer if I suspect something is wrong

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

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

[pallas]

With the standard client: just close it, replace the wallet.dat file, run it again and reset the blockchain.
I don't know about multibit and we are pretty offtopic anyway.

[gtraah]

yeh we are off-topic so one more question and i am off  

So All I do is Export Private Key. Then With that > Exported private Key << I do not need to keep updating the wallet.dat? In a scenario where my HDD is DEAD I grab that key from my USB with the Private key on it and use the Import private Key function and reset the blockchain + transactions.

And what happens is that the same BTC address which was there when I exported the key and all the transactions that have ever been made to that address will appear again on the new hard drive with my new wallet?

Is this correct?

Sorry if I am being very detailed, I just dont want to keep speaking about it since its offtopic

Yup.

Is this correct?

Yes.  The coins of course are not stored on your computer, they're in the chain, so if you have the private keys for them, you have them.  Depending on the client, if you create enough new addresses, you may be generating new private keys, so if you do a lot of transactions, it's worth backing up on occasion.  If you're just receiving to a single address over and over you only need to back up once.  Hell, you could just create a paper wallet and use that address as the middlecoin mining address.

@ Fat miner.
Try using "expiry" : "1",
And queue : 5
Scan-time : 1.
This vastly improved my wu rate to around 0.95 and dropped my reject rates to around 1% on Amsterdam and eu servers.
Also double check your network as though ping times are excessively high.
Use a direct Ethernet connection to your router from the rigs

Thanks for the advice, I've been experimenting with those settings, I'm not too sure about cutting the expiry down to 1 sec though, You would lose a lot of shares doing that I think.

With regards to people asking about wired vs wireless vs Ethernet over Power... While hardwired Ethernet will obviously provide the lowest latency, I'm currently running 5 of my rigs through "Ethernet over Power" and they work well (as long as the adapters are on the same power pole). Rejects are slightly higher around 5% usually, however, it's certainly doable, and better than nothing :] I also have a rig on wireless and other than the occasional wifi disconnect, it too runs well. One of these days I'll get around to wiring everything with Fibre or Cat 6 :]

OT: Did anyone else watch those 280x's come back into stock on Amazon for $305 earlier? Gone in like 5-10 minutes tops haha. Someone got in an order of either 12 or 16...jealous much haha

TigerDirect has the MSI R9 280X GAMING for $399 this morning and you could pay with Bitcoin.

The ping for me to EU server is about 32 ms. Currently we mine there. But the ping to Amsterdam is about 3ms.

Do you guys think if we switch, the rejects will be lower?

3ms is awesome. Do you live in Amsterdam? lol I would be all over dat. I am no genius but that would fix a lot of problems.

No not Amsterdam but just have a great connection. Currently our rejection is about 4-5%. Do you think we can lower it to 1-2%?

[uozer]

but u have payout

since 3 Days i dont have payouts there is somthing wrong @ middlecoin

Did you doublecheck your payout address against all of the miners?

You can also try a different payout address and see if that helps.

The address is 100% correct.
And yes, it works correctly with the other address.
But that does not help me to get the money from this address  

DON'T USE THAT ADDRESS! It has typo'ed duplicates on the allusers table, which means it's messing up the middlecoin database:

17iwDLvDwqBjMnGBAqPPpvij6Fmt6NFUCu
17iwDLvDwqBjMnGBAqPPpvij6Fmt6nFUCu
17iwDLvDwqBjMnGBAqPPpvij6Fmt6FUCu

Get a new address in your wallet and mine to that. h2o will correct that and get you your BTC eventually, but every share you submit to either of those usernames is BTC you aren't going to see for a while.

He's been told that already.  Apparently he'd rather whine and accuse than do what others have suggested.

so did anyone with this problem get their coins? was it solve with other addresses? 

i am realizing that my red balance line has flatlined for 2-3 now and trying to change address
