Yeah, this is my first time messing with anything like this. I've managed to change IP settings and such and I can get the stratum proxy to run, but I believe i have the ports messed up?
This is what the proxy looks like:
I've never managed to get it that far before, so I must be doing something right, I hope.
Here is the cube:
The pool ports part confuse me though, you said "-gp your.proxy.port" and "-gp SomeRandomPortOn192.168.0.222" I used 8332 but I'm thinking thats wrong.
I'm assuming that has to match with something in the cube settings and on my computer?
Yup looks like you're making some progress.
Here's a list of things to change/check/update:
- Set the Gateway field in the Cube control panel to 192.168.1.1
- Until you get a Backup pool set up, set Pool Ports to the same value. It should be whatever valued you used in the mining_proxy.exe command line for the -gp value. 8332 is fine.
- Confirm that 192.168.1.10 is the computer running mining_proxy.exe. If you're running any sort of firewall on 192.168.1.10, open port 8332.
- There are several port variables in play. -p is the port on which the stratum runs. You do not control this. You use whatever value the pool you are using tells you too. In this case, 3333. I found this under the Getting Started section of
https://bitminter.com/It also mentions alternate ports you can use IF you have firewall issues.
-gp is the port which your local computer running mining_proxy.exe uses. You can set this value to a value you wish within reason (there are some ports it may cause an issue with; but that's a very advanced answer for this level of discussion. 8332 is fine.
So your updated settings should be -
mining_proxy.exe -o mint.bitminter.com -p 3333 -cu IamCANADIAN013_JeffWh013 -cp 1 -gp 8332
And the cube should be:
IP: 192.168.1.13
Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.1
WEB Port: 8000
Primary DNS: 192.168.1.1
Secondary DNS: 8.8.8.8
Pool Ports: 8332,8332
Pool Addresses: 192.168.1.10,192.168.1.10
Miners user:pass: IamCANADIAN013_JeffWh013:1,IamCANADIAN013_JeffWh013:1
Verify any firewall on 192.168.1.10 has port 8332 open.
Also you may have to register IamCANADIAN013_JeffWh013 worker via their interface? I don't use BitMinter so I don't know.
Thank you so much for all the help, with some tinkering I finally got it to work. Didn't like my firewall setting apparently.
Do you accept donations by chance?
It won't be for a while as I don't want to cash out until I get a decent balance, but I would like to make a small donation as a thank you.
