I'm running Slush's stratum proxy on my PC and have an ASICminer Blade hooked up. The blade's web UI will report 10gh/s but my account on Slush's pool isn't even close to that number for the respective worker. I've also noticed it cranks through jobs and then gets hung up, almost like it gets booted from the server and has to start over.

Just curious why this might be happening. If I were to throw a guess, it might be because I have 50ft of cable between the PC and the router, maybe packet loss(?). I'm just throwing anything against the wall and seeing what sticks at the point, anyone familiar with this issue?


Edit: looks like my blade's web UI is now reporting very low efficiency. I touched the heatsink to see if it was hot and almost at that very moment it dropped all work. Geez, guess I need to just turn it on and keep my grubby hands off it for now, very touchy.

Edit 2: 20 minutes later and it's picking up jobs again. The whole time it was reporting "clean_jobs=false", then suddenly it just started working. I still expect to see a significant variance between my actual hashing speed versus what is being reported on my account for the pool, question for that is still open.
