Apologize if this topic was already covered elsewhere, but I am new to the forum and I would not even really know what terms to search for to have my questioned answered.

I was wondering if it is possible to piggback ASIC miners, i.e., where they point to a solo mining pool and then have combined hashing power. For example, I have an S9 and a T17, which together would equal about 95TH/s for any SHA-256 coin I wanted to mine. Right now, they are pointed to the same pool, but are working independently. I would like it if I could get them working together.

That being said, I saw ckpool has a linux program that can achieve that, but I am not sure how that would be done with an ASIC miner. To configure my miners, I have to go into their interface, yada, yada. I wouldn't know how to filter them through a linux box, then to a mining pool.

Has anyone else achieved this, and if so, I am dying to know how its done.

Thanks!

Answered my own question. Just needed to put the worker name after the address, i.e., <BITCOIN ADDRESS.RIG_ID>. Shows up with the combined hashing power.

Not really sure what you are saying.
If you point 2 miners at (e.g. my) pool, they each get separate work.
Everyone 'achieves' this all the time Smiley

If you know some pool that doesn't do this, then you should stay far away from that pool.
That's a bug that means the pool is throwing away hash rate.

The worker name doesn't affect that.
Using two worker names means you can breakdown and total the work each miner is doing.
The overall total is still the same.

Actually, you just make yourself confused to setting up the miner you just need is a worker name you can name them miner1(s9) and miner2(t17) and point them directly to the same pool. You can see your whole hashrate on the pool dashboard as a combined hashrate of these two miners.

If you are mining on solo mining with https://solo.ckpool.org/ you can just ignore the .RIG_ID and only put BTC address the RIG_ID

Sample setup for s9

Code:
URL: stratum+tcp://solo.ckpool.org:3333
Worker: 1PKN98VN2z5gwSGZvGKS2bj8aADZBkyhkZ
Pass: x

You can set up your both miner with the same pool config without adding something at the end of the BTC address.
