Okay, this is a major pain in the ass, hopefully someone here knows what the deal is.
My original setup was using an old laptop, connected to a switch, with a bridged Wifi connection to my router. My cube would go through the switch to a proxy running on the laptop. All my blades were pointing at my workstation running another proxy, which is hard-wired to the router, but said blades were still getting work through the old laptop on the bridged Wifi. Pointing all the gear at a single proxy on the laptop was blocking them from hashing full speed, and splitting the proxy assignments between the laptop and the workstation seemed to solve everything just fine; that is, until I worked my way up to 10 blades... That's when I noticed slow warm-ups and many blades not reaching full 10gh/s.
So my solution was to buy a TP-Link AV500 starter kit. Basically, running a wire from the router to the switch is not an option, so I need to make something work like this or the laptop as a workaround.
I hooked up the TP-Link to the router on one end, switch on the other. Also removed my cube from the switch and plugged in directly to my laptop, right away the cube is getting up to full speed faster being hooked up straight to the laptop and talking to the internet through the bridged Wifi on it.
Onto the TP-Link, right when I hooked it up it was blazing fast!! Amazing how much better, everything cranked. Now I get this great performance for about 5 minutes then all of the sudden proxy freezes, reports "clean_jobs=false" and everything shits the bed for a while. Sits there for a bit like that, and then eventually the proxy starts cranking again, until the next screeching halt.
So basically, I got this TP-Link thing, it works briefly, but now my proxy is shutting down the work or the blades are rejecting something; all I know is it's not stable and I'm losing good mining time. I can draw diagrams, take photos, anything unclear here just let me know. Please, please, please let me know if you have a potential insight, any help would be greatly appreciated.
When I first got my blades I had similar issues when connecting directly to my router, and bridging the Wifi on the laptop fixed all those problems so I left well-enough alone. Seeing that I removed the laptop from the equation now, and I've essentially got the blades connected directly (through TP-Link) to the router, once again I'm seeing this lack of stability "clean_jobs=false" error. Could it be my DNS needs to be changed now? Something else?
