Try to ping the pool server not just ping use the psping to ping the pool with port.
Check this guide below replace the viaBTC with your pool.
Here's the guide below.
- First download the PSping you can find it from here
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/psping- Now, extract the file.
- Open CMD
- Type this command below.
cd "Folder path of psping"
Sample below.
cd C:\Users\Admin\Downloads\PSTools
- Now perform this command below.
psping btc.viabtc.com:3333
Now the ping will show something like 213ms this ping is high and for me, it is not recommended ping it will gives me high rejected share.
Here's the result of mine.
TCP connect to 47.89.133.160:3333:
5 iterations (warmup 1) ping test:
Connecting to 47.89.133.160:3333 (warmup): from 192.168.1.3:56723: 213.08ms

Other viabtc pool servers for BTC below.
- stratum+tcp://btc.viabtc.com:25
- stratum+tcp://btc.viabtc.com:443
You can ping them and test the ping.
Here's my other result on another pool (sg.kano.is:3333) as a sample.
TCP connect to 45.32.116.44:3333:
5 iterations (warmup 1) ping test:
Connecting to 45.32.116.44:3333 (warmup): from 192.168.1.3:56787: 74.79ms
Connecting to 45.32.116.44:3333: from 192.168.1.3:56788: 76.01ms
Connecting to 45.32.116.44:3333: from 192.168.1.3:56789: 96.49ms
Connecting to 45.32.116.44:3333: from 192.168.1.3:56790: 76.90ms
Connecting to 45.32.116.44:3333: from 192.168.1.3:56791: 74.06ms
This ping with an average of 80ms is good ping so this one is a good pool server and recommended to use.
