Whoever wrote in the ability to switch to backup pools automatically in the OS running on these machines was a genius, plain and simple...it's the best feature of these miners!

Him: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/official-cgminer-mining-software-thread-for-linuxwinosxmipsarmr-pi-4110-28402
It's part of the cgminer code that, fortunately, Bitmain hasn't touched (screwed up)

That's a huge nugget of wisdom; thanks Kano!

Glad you like it. The first cgminer release I put it into was version 1.3.0, Jul 19 2011

I tried to sign up a new account on Antpool today but I kept getting "captcha error" on the registration page.

i did it like 5 times....any thoughts?

I just registered a new account with one of my extra email addresses as a test and it went through the first time using FireFox as my browser. Also, this is probably obvious but the captcha is case sensitive. Good luck!

Something new on antpool under account settings it says "VIP REQUEST" then it says "Private IP Request" Can anybody tell me if its working and how to use it without screwing things up.

Sensible answers only all others types please keep to yourself thank you.

I believe that a private IP is given to miners with petahash+ hashing power. I've seen other pools do it, I presume as a mechanism designed to keep VIP users from being affected by DDOS attacks on the public IPs. Please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

Hmmm, I tried it. It just says "WAITING" and nothing happens then I email Yoshi at BITMAIN asking him do I have to enter anything in the INFO box and he replied...

ME: what is the REQUEST PRIVATE IP selection under account setting ?
   Does it work if so how do I use it ?

Yoshi: You can try!!!

Me: Does not do anything just says waiting ?
   Do I have to enter anything ?

Yoshi:No it is not ready yet
   That's why....

Hmmm Huh

?

Baahaahaa!!!

Yoshi is a funny guy!

And a nice 33 Block day...with 20 minutes to go...

Those 13 second blocks make me smile.

why? unless you have a huge amount of hash on a pplns pool quick blocks will hardly pay you anything.

Right. Where are you mining?

nobody on the network has found a block since antpool did almost an hour ago... can't get confirmations without new blocks being found and whatnot

I understand what you are saying but find it hard to believe. What is the blockchain site where this can be verified?

Might learn something new today!

Is the "Status" screen frozen. It seems like the count on block confirmations is not progressing for nearly an hour that I have been watching.

Anyone else notice this?

Did a little testing today, renting small rigs from around the world, and 90% are reaching Antpool just fine now, though a couple are still stubbornly rolling over to my second choice pool.

Performance-wise I spent 0.1BTC on rentals, and with a few hours left have earned 0.14030554BTC on Antpool today and 0.03683781BTC on my backup pool. Good luck day for the test!

the same reasons punks like you hide behind keyboards.

is that a threat I will be more than happy to give you my address punk.

I step away from the keyboard for an hour and this is what happens? Just you wait until your father gets home....

just ignore this guy, he never has anything good to say..
he obviously doesnt know how bitcoin works.. he always complains when a pool doesnt give him the amount that he thinks he should ALWAYS get.. which is above 100%
he has been in every pool thread saying the same thing, and then gets very offensive when called out.

AntPool is #2 in the whole network.. i definitely does not suck, the ALL TIME % is right where it should be.. maybe even a little higher as its currently at 102%.

i think the only other pool to come close to that is westhash, they claim their ALL TIME % is 101.94%.. i believe it tho as they have times where people over pay for hash and it raises the avg up a lot..

edited, i was looking at the wrong tab on westhash.

Then you should know antpool sucks.

Then why are you still here? Why don't you go find a pool that doesn't suck or are you just one of those that has a chronic need to complain on forums about everything you can't control? Expectations are usually too high when it comes to mining and every little blip sends people like you into an angry panic which then leads to a series of questionable posts. But hey, keep the posts coming; the comic relief is awesome!

I have tried other pools but over the long haul the AntPool has outperformed them all for me. I am happy with the results I'm getting here but it's just from my personal observations.

I completely agree. I did a comparison of 7-day runs on 6 different pools. Antpool outperformed the others by a margin of +20%. They've been great for me!

1) First of all I did not ask for your reply in the first place.
2) It is you that made the reply if you don't like something don't reply to it.
3) and the only COMIC RELIEF is your sarcastic stupidity.

These forums are designed to be an exchange of useful information for those with similar interests. The problem is when you post a joke that doesn’t look like a joke filled with incorrect information it has a negative impact on some of those who don’t know any better. When this happens, you will get called out whether you like it or not. I had a responsibility to others to point out your error and if I hadn't someone else would have.

I agree. Antpool is far more stable than most pools I've tried, and it's luck is exactly the average that it should be. I don't understand the problem people have understanding averages.

I would also like to point out that switching pools when luck is down will cost you money. If you switch with every touch of bad luck, you're never at the pool long enough to see it average out, and are doing nothing more than shortchanging yourself. If that's what you want to do, feel free. I'll take your slice of the pie when the luck averages back up.
