Most likely a DDoS attack, everyone is having the same issues.

I don't know if there is a list anywhere, but you could always go to the pool mining forum (http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?board=41.0) and check the adds.

I have had good experiences with both Bitcoins.lc and BTCGuild.com

Hi,

It's been like this for the past two days on both of them - I am now looking for a new pool to join.

Which miner/OS are you using?
What hardware are you using?
Is your internet connection stable?
Which pools have you tried? Deepbit has been under DDoS attacks a couple of times the last few days as far as i know.


Windows + ufasoft - bitcoin-miner
Im using a 3 years old machine (it did not have any problems connecting to mining.bitcoin.cz, except when it was totally blocked by firewall)
Yes, internet connection is stable.

I tried deepBit, and mining.bitcoin.cz.

Any other(s) I should try ?
(Is there a list of all of them ?)

Im new to this BitCoin thing.
In the last few days I tried several pools
(since I understood that a stand-alone mine, will never get anything with the hardware available to me).

I have problems with a few (firewall probably)
(for example with mining.bitcoin.cz - Is there a way to configure a proxy ? how ?  - but this is another subject)

So I tried using DeepBit - which I can connect to, but I get a lot, and I mean a LOT of errors, and time outs.
for example:
Error 801901F7
Error 80072EFD:  A connection with the server could not be established
Error 80072EE2:  The operation timed out

I do establish connection, and I can do work, and the work is accepted,
but - a LOT of time is spent waiting, and recovering these errors.

Is there a problem with the server ?
Is there a problem on my side ?
(I tried from several sites, with different ISP, and different network configuration,
but got the same behavior)

Many Thanks in advance.
