I'm on Westhash not nicehash so not sure.  But westhash did go out briefly this morning for a few minutes.  All my ants went to back up.  But 10 minutes later they moved right back.  I got a maintenance message when I tried to access the website so I am guessing they restarted servers or something.
If you were hashing fine on those settings before, just wait.  It will come back.  Don't change anything.

I have diverted almost all my hashing power to westhash in the past day.  Coming up on 24 hours and I'm very happy.  I am making significantly more than I would on ghash.
Can't say as I completely understand everyone's technical complaints.  But it's working for me so far.

ASIC miners: BFGMiner VERSION 4.7.0, AUGUST 17 2014 introduced "mining.set_extranonce extension": https://bitcointalk.org/?topic=626361.msg8390976#msg8390976

If you can upgrade to this version we highly recommend it since you'll get better efficiency when mining on NiceHash/WestHash (no disconnects).

  • Stratum: Support for mining.set_extranonce extension; put "#xnsub" at the end of the pool URI to enable.

Please report any issues to BFGMiner thread.

If only TCP protocol allowed you to keep connection alive but to different IP. But with change of stratum proxy, reconnect is needed thus making our extranonce subscribe extension obsolete.

Please, stay in boundaries of technical limitations.

i think u dont understand what we are saying here, it has no connection with "technical limitations"

It has already been explained. Buyers need to have a choice whether to buy from EU or US so they can minimize reject rates on their chosen pools.

That dosent make sense, buyers can buy at a certain price, and they can choose on what server to mine after, is that simple.

U buy at X price, and after u choose where u want to mine, EU or US, how about that ?

That's pretty much a suggestion I made a few pages back.  Unified order book with a preference given to one of the exit nodes.  The twist I added in was the ability to service from the other node (or future nodes) if hash power was available and the buyer was willing to accept higher rejects for faster servicing of the order.  This should help bring convergence in buyer price between the nodes.

why not just make the westcrap site just a node to connect for the ones who wants to, and not a place where they can place bids ? west site is keeping prices down, because no one is there ...


ps : i will ask this until i get an answer

I have connected my 4 S3 to nicehash, in BTCGuild they were hashing at +1.90TH/S, never dropping below,
but on nicehash they even hash at 1.5TH/S which is impossible.
Are they stealing hash or what is happening here ?

I have some undervolted s1's @140 here and rejected is .2%. I do remember trying Nicehash a while back and I think I had issues with my S1's. I'm not seeing that now for some reason. They were not undervolted before.
I just tried westhash today for first time.

I'm running two S3 with the July 21st firmware and they have been connected two Nicehash for the last two weeks. Sometimes they are with a 0,0% reject rate for many hours then suddenly the reject rate climbs to stupid numbers for some minutes, maybe half an hour. Then everything goes back to normal....  Huh

 

I have only seen this once and I'm guessing when the miners where changing work orders maybe they were screwed up?  Mine sorted themselves in a few minutes also and I have not seen it since.

Maybe one of the Devs can help here.

How about cgminer direct?  I have tried:
stratum.westhash.com:3334 and
stratum+tcp://stratum.westhash.com:3334
Neither will connect.

EDIT - Got it working.  Not sure how. Thanks for your patience.

What do you meant direct?  I just have pool 1 set as nicehash

for westhash you would use

stratum+tcp://stratum.westhash.com:3334
your BTC addy...as username ex 1GAdKk4Hn5XEJDgyJNHLBnZWrpSwmrzPMQ
password I set p=.0255 so that my miners flip to better pools once they run out of higher paying work.

Therefor Pools 2 and 3 are your next favorite pools that you want to hash on for luck or steady payouts.

I totally agree with you...

Profit on Nicehash has been less then other multipool in the last few days

On the SHA-256 side I have never made as much as the calc have said i should except on Nicehash.  Thanks Nicehash!

this is how you set your prices as a seller.

https://www.nicehash.com/?p=faq#faqs4

Just use pool fail over and the sellers can easily control the price. If you want more and you all set the price high enough then it will move.  It would have to be a coordinated effort.

I suggest we don't sell unless the price on SHA-256 is .03/Thash

;-)

okay  you posted in the s-3 thread.  So I am in the USA and I joined west hash.  

here are my   s-3's  what else need I do?

 must I ssh into  and add   something to the s-3 config?



I didn't bother with westhash but I guess i could.

I'm using the second firmware that bitmain posted but not the latest with almost no errors on 12 S3's.  make sure you set p=.0252 if you want to work on other pools in the password.  This will cut you off of westhash or nicehash if their are no premium work loads.

I would use the same BTC addy for them all but that is up to you.  They pay the addy direct and if you want to see your hash rate you look it up by the addy.  I make seperate BTC addy's for eachpool so I can tell whereI'm getting paid from.  Just for my own info.  all the same would work also.

Also this world my change after the next difficulty comes in so stay tuned.

100% rejects are due to the bug in cgminer software. Update firmware and you will be good to go with no very little rejects.

Just giving this a try.  I have some Antminer S1's that are getting nothing but rejects.  Others seem to be OK.
Any idea why this would be?

I am new to this about an hour in.    I set 3 s-3's to westhash as I am usa.  I used the same btc addy for all three.

I wonder if using 1 or 2 per btc addy is better.  do you have like 10 s-1's set to 1 btc addy?

I don't think setting multiple addresses makes a difference.  I have 20 or so S3's hooked up now on one address (you can can guess which one on the miner page).  No issues.  The only issue is 2 out of my 6 S1's get nothing but rejects right from the get go.  The others seem stable.  I think the S1's with an issue are very early versions.  I may or may not have updated firmware on them.
I am also having trouble getting cgminer to get a live pool with the Westhash address.  Tried a couple of different ways but no luck yet.  I run some Goldrush and Pepper Mining boards off PC's.  But those are staying on ghash until I can figure out how to get it to recognize the pool.

EDIT - just started myself.  We must have seen the same link in a post.  Cheesy
