[DEAD] DeepBit.net PPS+Prop,instant payouts, we pay for INVALID BLOCKS too

[Scopedude]

Still having major problems. If I reset my DSL I can mine on pit.deepbit.net for about an hour and  then I cannot
Resolve pit.deepbit.net anymore. If I resolve the ip address on another network and then try to ping the ip address I cannot ping it. I can ping one address above and one below pit.deepbit.net. either deepbit is blocking ip addresses or my isp is.

Is deepbit blocking any ip addresses?   

[Scopedude]

It can't be my DSL router or my ISP blocking a port.  I am mining just fine with mtred.com and 50btc.com.

This is only Deepbit I am having a problem with. 

Same problem in 3 different farms on 3 different internet connections in 3 different locations.

Cannot resolve pit.deepbit.net.  It comes and goes.  Sometimes I can resolve it, sometimes not.  Sometimes it works for a day, sometimes an hour.   I have been mining fine for over a year with the same settings.  This all just started happening after the last Deepbit DOS. I have tried different DNS servers. 4.2.2.1, 4.2.2.2, 8.8.8.8, etc.

Is pit.deepbit.net changing it's IP address frequently maybe to combat DOS?  Is there a better DNS server to use? 

Thanks

So I switched to my neighbor's internet to test it.  pit.deepbit.net came up and resolved no problem and mined for about an hour.  Then lost contact with deepbit.  mtred.com and 50btc worked fine.  Could not even pull up the deepbit website.

Switched back to my DSL.  Deepbit worked again for about an hour.  Then cannot resolve pit.deepbit.net.  Can't even ping the Deepbit IP address. 

It has to be Deepbit blocking IP addresses.  I am on my phone connection now.  I can pull up deepbit.net no problem.

Still can't resolve pit.deepbit.net on my DSL or my neighbor's.  Something has blocked the IP addresses.

This has just started happening since Deepbit got dos'd last week.

I am about to give up and move everything to another site.  I really like Deepbit though.

It looks like others have had problems as well.  GH is very low.

[Scopedude]

I think I have figured it out.  Deepbit is sending something back on a random port and activating the built in firewall on my DSL router.  When I switch to my neighbor's it takes a little while and does the same thing.

Deepbit has added something, most likely a DOS counter attack that is playing havoc with DSL firewalls.

The firewall cannot be turned off on residential units. 

[DeepBit]

I think this is not related to DNS in any way. We are using same DNS servers as before.

As for the "random port" - are you talking about the usual TCP/IP originating port or something different ?

[Scopedude]

I don't know.  All I know is Deepbit is activating 3 different firewalls on three different DSL routers in 3 different locations.  Backup servers of mtred and 50btc are working fine.  After a while the firewall will allow the Deepbit IP address again and then the same thing happens.  These farms have been mining Deepbit for a year with the same connections with zero problems.  Something has changed.


What changed since the last DOS?

Don't worry. Many times I had to wait even 10 hours or more for deepbit to send the payment. It isn't too unusual. Your bitcoins will arrive - at last.

Thanks for the info...Finally it found a way to unconfirmed transactions....

Thanks

Some payments were delayed today. You may need to make a new request if your payment is not shown in payments table.
No additional actions are required if you are using autopayments.

The payment I processed 12 hours ago shows under the list and it's not under the "unconfirmed" on my wallet..

As expected, if you click the transaction date it shows an error..

[DeepBit]

Looks like I should switch default setting from "blockexplorer" to "blockchaininfo" site...
The first one always shows this "error" message when TX is not confirmed yet or when it don't knows about the confirmation.

Hey,

I just have a general question, that may just be a random occurrence, but why not throw it out there and see if I am the only one experiencing this, right?

Basically, I have been noticing that either Sunday or Saturday (for the past few weeks) night my BTC per 24 hours almost doubles yet it seems like the pool rate remains about the same and my personal speed remains the same (no changes on my side, machines running 24/7). Is there something that is happening that I am missing out during these time periods or something of that nature? Maybe people are shutting down their machines resulting in a higher overall award or something of that nature? Been trying to figure it out myself for awhile now, thinking it may be a fluke or something like that, but it seems pretty consistent in happening on a weekly basis like this.

Anyone have ideas on why this might be happening or have some sort of theory or maybe others are experiencing the same thing?

Anyways, no urgent matter, just somewhat curious of how this system seems to be working.

Are you talking about PPS or Proportional payment method ?

Proportional payment method.

[DeepBit]

Some of you noticed that automatic payments now are happening not at the 00 minutes, but at some more random times and manual payment requests are sometimes timing out.
I know why this happened and it will be fixed tomorrow, don't worry. No payments are lost anyway.

[DeepBit]

Payment system is being updated at this moment, all payments will be temporarily paused for about one hour.

UPDATE: Payments enabled.

Manual payments not working at the moment:
"Please_wait_for_autopayment!"

Manual payments not working at the moment:
"Please_wait_for_autopayment!"

This message was shown because the payment system is waiting for hot wallet to be refilled. Please wait for autopayment or try again later.
Looks like the USD/BTC rate rise caused people to withdraw more bitcoins than usual.

Everything is fine now.
