Nice wakeup call here...

Maybe I'll try "pinging for bitcoin" here in a bit...see if I get any better responses from anywhere other than kano.is. I'm smack in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, so just about any continental land mass...or island, for that matter...is a long way off.

TS Darby turned out to be a fizzle for Kaua'i Island...we're quite OK with that. Dodged the proverbial bullet one more time...but that's quite OK also, as it kicks us in the `okole (Hawaiian for butt) to make sure our disaster response matrix is up to snuff.

Otherwise...belated congrats, Moe! and...

Thanks

i was excited to see 2 blocks to my name so soon after each other

FWIW...sorta kinda what I figgered...the primary (kano.is) is my best bet here, at around 75ms. SG runs over 200ms, JP didn't connect (I think Kano dumped that one, but my memory ain't that super anymore), and when you think about it, I'm probably closer/less hops to the main anyway. Our main Internet backbone in Hawaii is good quality, mainly due to the large military presence here, but does rely on undersea cable to the mainland for the primary.

Mine on... Cool

EDIT: Geez...did I say "main" enough times? More French press... Roll Eyes

Haha! That paragraph is definitely full of "main" between main, mainly, and mainland! Grin

Okay that helped me to get some point to start... I pinged and NL indeed is top of list with DE coming in close in second best...

Then, as Kano said, if NL and DE show about the same results, use NL. And I tend to believe him)))
And don't forget to compare NL and main node ping test results.

On my s7's I use the following failover sequence
- nl.kano.is:3333 (the fastest)
- stratum.kano.is:3333 (in case NL node gets unstable)
- de.ckpool.org:3333 (in case Kano does some restarts or updates, that's a European node for solo mining at solo.ckpool)

You can use any of the Kano ports:
stratum+tcp://nl.kano.is:3333
stratum+tcp://nl.kano.is:80
stratum+tcp://nl.kano.is:81
stratum+tcp://nl.kano.is:443
stratum+tcp://nl.kano.is:8080

And you can use any of the nodes listed in the forum title in place of the nl, IE:

Singapore
stratum+tcp://sg.kano.is:3333
stratum+tcp://sg.kano.is:80
stratum+tcp://sg.kano.is:81
stratum+tcp://sg.kano.is:443
stratum+tcp://sg.kano.is:8080

Japan
stratum+tcp://jp.kano.is:3333
stratum+tcp://jp.kano.is:80
stratum+tcp://jp.kano.is:81
stratum+tcp://jp.kano.is:443
stratum+tcp://jp.kano.is:8080

Sorry for all the questions but Im new at most of this...
Is it suppose to be nl.ckpool.org:3333 or nl.kano.is:3333 ?

Sorry, it was my mistake in the initial answer, I corrected myself and it should be nl.kano.is:3333

Where can one get the different nodes info and addresses...? I read a post some time back that mentioned the DK "stratum+tcp://dk.kano.is:3333" and up until that time I was only aware of the addresses on the web home page so I pinged and pointed my hardware to DK.... So I'm one of the "6" using DK then I think... lol

Would like to get the other nodes addresses and perhaps ping each and see what is best from South Africa... Sounds like NL node is quite popular...? Any guidance please?

I asked the same question some pages ago and this was Kano's answer to it: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.15619454

So, first of all, do some ping tests to see which node appears the fastest to you. As of now, as I understand, you can try de(sg,jp,fr,nl).ckpool.org:3333

Well, it's not just S9s that find blocks here

S7s and smaller also do.

Meanwhile, in the land of mining nodes ...

I'm gonna get rid of the DK node in about 10-12 hours.

No one has to do anything to their miners, since, I'll firstly, simply point DK at NL, then about 1/2 an hour or so later send anyone mining on DK a redirect to NL.
Finally, when I stop the pool node itself, anyone still left will reconnect to NL, since DK will be pointing to NL by then.

If you rent and mine to DK, then the rental may give up, since certain rental place's poxy software may not handle a redirect.
Makes you wonder what you are paying that exorbitant fee to them for ... if they cant add that original stratum command.

Right now, NL is ~580THs and DK is only 80THs, so not many people left on the DK node - about 6.
The NL node is faster and better than the DK node, and also gets work from the main Vegas node faster than the DK node, so as I actually mentioned I'd do when I setup the NL node, it's now time to get rid DK.

I'll post again when I'm doing it, but for the ~6 people mining on the DK node, it should just be a reconnect in cgminer.

Yeah there will be some more ppl here on NL node, but it seems stable ATM. When you helped me to decide whether it would be DE or NL, I considered also DK node and did some ping tests and they were VERY unstable - I made around 20 ping tests at different time of day and they differed very much each time - from 30 to 200 ms.
And on the NL node it seems all nice, since I've been there I have ZERO stales, but mining at the main node I had some stales. So thanks again for that not-far-away node))

I feel your pain about the heat. here in Las Vegas at 7:50 am it's 96F/35C.
And going up

I'll be taking advantage of the updated Awesome Miner rules which allow you to schedule frequency changes on the miners. I have already down-clocked my four S9 miners manually and will be setting up the rules to raise the frequencies after the sun goes down around 8:00 tonight. Hope it works as expected! Cheesy

Mine On!

Block Time! Cool

I see the pool hash rate has taken a nice little bump upward. I like it! (Except my block % is lower.... Tongue

But the greater good says, "More power!" Immediately after saying, "More Blocks!"

EDIT: It's already 93 F here at 10:30 in the morn. Gonna be another scorcher. Sad
