However, I am not getting any accepted blocks and they are all showing as rejected. Huh Huh

You see the rejects under "my account" -> "workers" in the website menu? And accepted says zero?

Help! Can anyone offer any advice?

I am running an antminer s1 from behind a corporate firewall. I can connect to bitminter pool via ports 80 and 443 only. Status is showing alive.

However, I am not getting any accepted blocks and they are all showing as rejected. Huh Huh

The miner works fine at home on my own router.

To complicate things .. I am running awesome miner with some block eruptors on usb on my laptop. These can connect fine to the bitmintr pool and all is working ok.

So it leads me to believe that it is something to do with the antminer setup.

Could it be down to the speed of the antminer compared to the usb asics?

I have been looking at ways to best circumvent the corporate firewall by perhaps using a proxy or ssh tunnel. But I do not know how to set up.

Any advice would be great! Smiley

Dec. 9 is the one year anniversary of receiving my KNC Jupiter.  Difficulty has gone from 707M to 40G.  My expected earnings have gone from over 3 BTC a week to barely .25BTC per month.  Been with Bitminter for the entire time (excluding a couple of days of testing early on).  My thanks to the Doctor.  Just felt I needed to mark the occasion.

That's absolutely awesome! Congrats! 

I too, just crossed my 1 year anniversary on BitMinter, back on Nov 25th. My first shift completed was at 2.3 Ghps. I was absolutely thrilled (and using the BitMinter client for my Block Erupters). I'm now up to 1160 Ghps -- and lurking around #250 overall. I incrementally added (and later removed) a Jalepeno, a couple of Cubes as well as two S1's, followed by an S3, upgrades for the S1's.  I've mined over 5 BTC during this time and BitMinter is the ONLY pool I've ever mined in.  It's been great!  Not a huge operation nor particularly profitable, but it is fun, nonetheless (I have really cheap rural electricity which helps).

I also have made over 100 LiteCoins in about 5 months + all of the merged mining coins that go with that, too.

The Jupiters were good machines. Parted ways with mine last month after nearly a year.

Indeed.  Congrats on hitting a year.  How long have the rest of you been mining?  I jumped in around the beginning of the year.

That's awesome Smiley Thanks for mining with Bitminter!

Good thing the difficulty increases are taking a break though. Wink

one of my accounts (caromei) stopped getting work from Bitminter.   I have rebooted them all but all of them say they are waiting on the pool.   I have another account that is in the same location and on the same switch and it is connecting fine.  any ideas?

Not sure what this means. Does the error message actually say it's not receiving work? Or is it the general "something went wrong" error that most miners show, which basically says nothing. You are sure both pool URL and user/worker name is correct?

Could you try us2.bitminter.com:3333 and eu1.bitminter.com:3333 to see if you get the same result?

Hint for mining client authors: your software knows what is wrong. Don't be a jerk, tell the user what it is.

Please take part in the poll if you have an opinion on the matter. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/how-do-you-prefer-to-log-in-885190

We need more voters, it's a rather close run poll right now ...

Google open id is the quickest. It saves me time logging in...I log-in multiple times per day. Email log-in would also be ok. I do use authy. Have you considered sqrl login technology? see below:

Yeah, Google has added OpenID Connect 1.0 (new protocol) logins and they are phasing out OpenID 2.0 logins (older protocol).

I set up a poll about mining pool logins. Please take part in the poll if you have an opinion on the matter. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/how-do-you-prefer-to-log-in-885190

Not sure if you saw this yet Doc

Now why would they do away with OpenID I wonder ?

Maybe this will force sites to design their own dedicated app, such as Authy that Ghash use.


According to the link their is a newer version that sites can use.

Same thing just newer protocol I guess...

Hodl!
Maybe OpenID makes for too much plaintext data on their servers that the feds can subpoena, or just plain demand to access or else.

Yup, got greeted by this message today "OpenID 2.0 for Google Accounts is going away."

What do you recommend Doc?  Is there a way to create a direct login account on the Bitminter website as opposed to using a third party login tool?

OK, after 24 hours my average across all miners is 0.35% - much better. That figure is slightly distorted as a few miners are hosted in the US.

Overall ... eu1.bitminter.com:3333 looks good.

Thanks Doc.
