Doesn't seem to work. In the stats it says Extranonce subscription is not enabled.

I upgraded to BFGMiner 5.0 and tried the

stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3333/#xnsub#skipcbcheck
stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3333/#xnsub
stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3333#xnsub  <--- says its dead this way


Anyone have a Jupiter and sucessfuly running ?

Sorry, we've given you the wrong port, it's 3334 for SHA (3333 is for Scrypt), that would be:

stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3334/#xnsub#skipcbcheck
or
stratum+tcp://stratum.westhash.com:3334/#xnsub#skipcbcheck

How do I get KNC Jupiter to mine properly with Nicehash. From time to time I keep getting a slower speed (25% slower) because it keeps reconnecting or submitting 0 shares.

How to enable the extranounce ?

Please take a look here: https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=software#bfgminer

1. Update your miner to the latest firmware.

2. Set pool like this:
stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3333/#xnsub#skipcbcheck
or
stratum+tcp://stratum.westhash.com:3333/#xnsub#skipcbcheck

This new feature doesn't looks good for x13.
Now they can create a bot for the web interface waiting for low price and put a fixed order.
IMHO, fixed orders must be disabled for algo with low hashrate available.

This; what happened to the 50% maximum for fixed orders?

Multi-algo ports are specific. It is possible that someone places an fixed order for 50%, then many miners switches to other algorithm and there is no more hashing power available (and we can't "take away" the already assigned hashing power from fixed orders).

We fixed this so that we implemented lower fixed orders quotas for low hashing power algorithms.

Current quotas are:
 { 0.5, 0.5, 0.1, 0.4, 0.2, 0.1, 0.2, 0.1, 0.2, 0.2 }; (0.5 means 50% and so on)

Where algorithms are
 { sha, scrypt, scrypt-n, x11, x13, keccak, x15, nist5, neoscrypt, lyra2re };

We will monitor the situation and tune our system accordingly.

Thank you for using our service!

That's look a lot better. Thanks !

Today my Antminer works as usual (1.24 TH) but I only get around 0.5 TH as accepted shares on Nicehash, and no rejected shares to speak of. I am used to a 10% lower rate on nicehash, but this is too much. Is there an explanation for this? For the time being I stop hashing here.

Please send us your bitcoin address, used for mining with this miner on NiceHash and possibly also your public ip address to [email protected] so that we can check what could be the issue for this.

Hi,

Today we introduced an attractive feature for buyers of hashing power - fixed orders.

This type of order will allow you to place an order with fixed price and will guarantee you the the desired hashing speed through order's lifetime, even if there are other bidding orders with higher price submitted later on. You will have to pay a bit higher price in relation to current fixed orders demand. This type of order is especially appropriate for renters of smaller amount of hashing power who are seeking for a way to rent hashing power with a peace of mind with no need to watch over the order in case some other to over bid you. This is essentially the same as renting a physical miner or renting a physical rig, however you still retain all the benefits of renting hashing power by being able to cancel the order any time and pay only for accepted shares without any risk for faulty configured rigs. Needles to say that this type of renting is also prone to bots manipulation since the hashing power is dedicated to your order.

Please take a look at updated FAQ "How can I buy hash power at NiceHash?" for all the details.

So, if you're still in the old-school of directly renting rigs now is the time to upgrade to our Fixed orders - in most cases you will get a price well below directly renting miners or rigs while still preserving all the benefits of renting hashing power with the same careless experience as having your own on-demand miner or rig!

Thank you for using our service.

How do I get KNC Jupiter to mine properly with Nicehash. From time to time I keep getting a slower speed (25% slower) because it keeps reconnecting or submitting 0 shares.

How to enable the extranounce ?

Please take a look here: https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=software#bfgminer

1. Update your miner to the latest firmware.

2. Set pool like this:
stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3333/#xnsub#skipcbcheck
or
stratum+tcp://stratum.westhash.com:3333/#xnsub#skipcbcheck

Thanks, doubt solved! Deleting my post now:

Can't it be done using BFG miner? BFG miner supports KNC miners, so it may work - haven't tried it though.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can improve this config for 280X GPU.  I am particularly interested in the settings for keccak.  All the other algos seem to hash very well.  My problem with keccak, I'm getting at least 20% reject either job not found or stale shares.

TaaS is a closed-end fund designated to blockchain
Still I make more than that on f2pool.com why would I want to use westhash Huh?

Keep in mind that f2pool takes 4% fee while NiceHash/WestHash only taks 2% and also keep in mind that f2pool stratum servers are far away for USA and EU users (China - as far as I now) - high latency will make you rejects and stales which will decrease your payouts - you have to take into consideration all parameters not only hashrate and prices.

Also, due to our special service implementation with extra rewards for miners on fast switching buying orders you have to monitor the actual earnings, not only hashrate of your miner, multiplied by predicted average direct Bitcoin mining. Our service has the most predictable and stable mining incomes, this is why many users stays at our pool even at declared below direct Bitcoin mining profits and this is because our stable and low latency connection and consistent payouts, - all this makes better then Bitcoin mining in short-term profit (not to mention the extreme spikes with high profits which happens once in a while Wink ).

Thank you for using our service!

My 2 cents.

No doubts NiceHash/WestHash a better result than f2pool or any other PPS pool.

Is not a small difference will be 7-8% at least any day in favor to NiceHash/WestHash

Don't believe me run your own tests pointing 1 PH to each pool and check the result after 1 day.

I have the same problem with my s5's, they have about 5% rejects on nicehash.
my s3's work fine btw.
did you find a solution?

AntMiner S5's are indeed having some minor issues when mining some particular low-diff and fast-work restart coins. Therefor in particular periods when these miners are working on such altcoin NiceHash/WestHash order they will produce some rejects. But on the long run these rejects shouldn't go above 2-3%. We've already notified Bitmain about this and hopefully they'll provide a patch in their upcoming firmware (we'll also leave a note in the AntMiner S5 bitcoin thread).

oke thanks for the info, hope they will fix it soon.
