I'm having my IP banned even if my house machines (3 CPU + 1 GPU) are all using Xmr Stak 2.4.2 with "monero7" algo.
My IP banned as well. What's going on?
Hey Stelio, you already addressed the solution to the problem. I should have addressed this more clearly beforehand. There are a few tags/commands in the default pools.txt file that need to be changed for the sake of the proxy your hashes get pointed towards.
"pool_list" :
[
{"pool_address" : "168.235.86.33:3386", "wallet_address" : "c4h.INSERT_YOUR_WALLET_HERE", "rig_id" : "", "pool_password" : "", "use_nicehash" : false, "use_tls" : false, "tls_fingerprint" : "", "pool_weight" : 1 },
],
"currency" : "monero7",
This is what your pools.txt file should look like for now. It is subject to change down the road. I will make future necessary pools.txt changes more transparent in order for something like this to not happen again.
Senzacervello, Stelio, and anyone else who has been affected by this ban,
please PM me your IP addresses and the ban will be lifted.
Everyone, please make sure your config looks exactly like the one above in order to not risk getting banned out of the blue. If Stak asks you whether Nicehash should be true/false, on/off, etc, set it to
false/off. If the mining window does not ask, then this does not pertain to you.
