Problem with mining on GHash

[Aukoue]

Hello everyone. I have an Antminer S3 and I'd like to mine on GHash, but for some reason it doesn't work. I have created an account and all. I don't have any workers, but they say they're created automatically. I input all the info into my miner - I use login.worker1 as my worker:


Antminer seems to be mining:


However, GHash says otherwise:


I would greatly appreciate any help/advice. Thank you in advance.

Assuming you entered your password, it it possible somebody hijacked your connection.

Just about all pools use the Stratum Protocol, which does not authenticate the pool: and only authenticates the miner with a plain-text password.

The only pool largely immune to this is P2Pool; if and only if you run your own node. P2Pool uses a shadow block-chain requiring proof-of-work to assign pay-outs.

I've tried using P2Pool yesterday for some time, however it's been about 16h and my BTC wallet balance has not changed. Should I use "http://p2pool.org:9332" or just "p2pool.org:9332"?

That is not running your own P2Pool node. P2Pool also takes 3 days to build up your payout (pays out the last 3 days of shares every time a block is found).

Edit: I think http://p2pool.org may specify the older getwork protocol. Stratum is better.
Edit:2: if since the BGP hijack lasts only 30 seconds or so, changing your password should mitigate the problem (until it happens again). I would double-check that your payout address is correct.
ON second thought, It may be something simple if Ghash.io is not registering shares at all.

input your password .
ex : 123456

I have created a new account and it's working. When does GHash pay? I've been mining (successfully) for an hour, and I can see that blocks are being found, but my balance is still 0.000000.

Use stratum+tcp://us1.ghash.io:3333 as your pool.
