So decided to upgrade my units to use the extranonce patch at westhash/nicehash.

 
To cut a long story short:

-Step one was to upgrade the firmware to antminer_S320141126.bin. The result was: my units mined perfectly well on AntPool but on any other pool including Westhash, they dropped below 100 GHS.

- I tried most of the suggestions on the Bitmain discussion thread and elsewhere...but to no avail.

- In the end, I went back to original firmware. While doing so, one of my S3s got stuck for about 30 minutes while i was flashing it. Now i cannot connect to that S3. Even the reset button did not help me. That S3 is now incommunicado. Luckily, I still have 2 weeks left on its warranty and can likely do an RMA.
Same thing happened to me when I decided to update to 11/26 ver.
Hash rate dropped a lot so I returned to 10/26 ver, which runs fine
I tried Westhash and it works fine.
By the way, for those who live in East coast, USA, which one would be better, westhash or nicehash?
Thanks

For what its worth. Since the introduction of westhash and of course the equal payment system, I've had all miners on westhash with very little issues.
Basically if you're in US/Canada etc go westhash. EU/Asia Stick to nicehash? Although china does have good connectivity to west coast USA.

Lyra2RE algorithm added.

SETTINGS:
Here are some recommended settings:

"pools" : [
        {
                "name" : "NiceHash_Lyra2RE",
                "url" : "stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3342",
                "user" : "your-BTC-address",
                "pass" : "d=1",
                "algorithm" : "Lyra2RE",
                "nfactor" : "10",
                "xintensity" : "64",
                "thread-concurrency" : "8192",
                "gpu-engine" : "1050",
                "gpu-memclock" : "1500",
                "worksize" : "64",
                "gpu-threads" : "2"
        },

Download miner from here:
https://github.com/metalicjames/sgminer-Lyra2RE/releases
https://github.com/metalicjames/ccminer-Lyra2RE/releases

These miners should also work well on other algorithms, but we haven't checked if all algorithms optimizations are included.

MULTIALGO:
Lyra2RE is disabled on multilago by default (because currently you have to use a special sgminer fork and the transition will take a while, I guess). But nevertheless if you want to use multialgo you can still use it by manually adding Lyra2RE factor to your pool's password setting, for example:

"pass" : "d=1;f0=0;f2=0;f3=8.5;f4=4.5;f5=500;f6=3.5;f7=14;f8=0.35;f9=1.25",

(as always, remember to add this to all your NiceHash/WestHash pools entries, not only for the new Lyra2RE entry).

you can put it on multialgo, no change in speeds when you copy cgminer.conf and already compiled bin files from other versions of cgminer

Is there anyway to set a static diff.  I set my password to d=1024 but then it keeps climbing over time.

Note: Your miner may sometimes work with lower or higher difficulty since the difficultly you set is only a preferred difficulty and the actual difficulty depends on the current orders at NiceHash. This is completely normal.

1) Does KnCMiner Neptune work ok on NiceHash?

It's a SHA256 coin, so ASIC compatible.

I'm confused, so it is not this:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=268941.0

Because that page says that the algorithm is Scrypt.

Yeah, that one was the original coin called "Paycoin" and it was a scrypt coin.  The guys over at GAW either didn't research or didn't care.  The original coin dev has mentioned legal action against GAW.

heh i'd like to put the patch in for the jupiter but have no idea if

1) cgminer 4.3 from knc last update that you can even update to reg cgminer 4.7
(not a linux guy)

2) then if that is do'able does the new cgminer 4.7 or whatever have the patch and only
the #XXX or whatever is needed at the end of the statrum info to toggle it?

3) does this really matter when supposedly the POW mining aspect will be shut down on the 19th
by GAW and it is back to btc for me

not sure if any of the above is worth it ...just an annoying little bug

We haven't tested KnCMiner Neptune, but if you're referring to the extranonce.subscribe patch it is important to note that extranonce.subscribe is not absolutely required to mine on NiceHash/WestHash, you can just point your SHA256 miners to our stratum servers the same as any other Bitcoin pool. However, if you have a fast miner (anything > 1TH), then mining with extranonce.subscribe patched cgminer gives you a bit better payouts since your hashrate is completely stable - it doesn't fluctuate when orders changes on nicehash/westhash - no disconnects from the stratum. It's only a matter of a few percents in terms of profitability, but sometimes every percent counts.

That said - just give it a try and report if you have any success (nevertheless it might be good for you to upgrade it to the latest firmware https://www.kncminer.com/pages/neptune-setup-info).

The only show-stopper issue would it be if you would be getting 99-100% rejects - this happens with some particular versions of cgminer due to extranonce2-bug ... hopefully Neptune has a recent version of cgminer without this bug.

well i can get the knc oct jupiter to work with nicehash (567gh) so yeah it is doable been mining paycoin ...but the bug is annoying..blips out like every 1/2 hr or so
..probably not a big deal was just wondering if anyone on nicehash on here has previously upgraded the knc jupiter oct cgminer 4.3 to 4.7 (knc has not done an upgrade to this in
almost a year) ...so again not even sure if an upgrade to cgminer 4.7 (new version) how to (not a linux guy) even works on a juptier either

and again not sure if the patch is included in that build or another go around

irregardless would like to know IF I decide to stay and hash BTC on www.nicehash.com once on Dec 19th when the paycoin (pow) phase is done

anyway ....likely someone has done such with their old knc oct jupiter or some such ...and again knc proper has pretty much moved on from updates
to the jupiter as of almost 9 months or so ago

just looking beyond the paycoin vacation i have here from bitcoin

and er on a side note it is still dec 19th they plan to pull the plug on this right? (at least maybe I know that much)

I'm using Pfool's stratum server, and have successfully connected my Neptune to WestHash.

I've got an October Jupiter too (like Searing), and I will try to hook it up through Pfool's stratum server (that should save me from trying to figure out how to update its old cgminer version). I'll report back on how that goes (it's in a different location, so I have to build a Raspberry Pi stratum server for that location first).

I have a question: I'm trying to get my other miners (4x Bitmine CoinCraft Desks) to connect through the stratum proxy to WestHash. I had a couple of them working, but now they fail with "worker not authorized" errors like this (bitcoin address snipped):

Code:

Why are these workers not authorized on the WestHash pool? (It's frustrating because I have 3.2TH/s worth of miners that WestHash is refusing)
