Topic: KanoPool kano.is lowest 0.9% fee 🐈 since 2014 - Worldwide - 2432 blocks - page 1823. (Read 5352140 times)

Mods: If this should be moved, my apologies. I intended to talk about this with pool people, but maybe it should be in general hardware?

This really only applies to kano.is members who have their miners at their home, who do not have fail-over internet setup,  and have a cell phone with them everyday.

I wanted to mention a couple of things that some home miners may be interested in but maybe haven't thought about.

It is easy for most people to have redundant internet through your cell service via a usb modem or even just your cell phone.
It takes the right router to make this plug and play, but it doesn't have to be a $300.00 router. The right router is obviously one which can accommodate at least two NAT connections. The one you are using now, and... I have checked through various carriers and almost every big one offers some form of tethering, usb modem, or you can be creative and use your phone and PC, but my preference for ease of getting started right away is the usb modem +router.

Most of the consumer model routers I have played with use the USB port on the router.
Most people don't need an expensive router, but if you want one, I've liked https://www.asus.com/Networking/RT-AC88U/overview/ the most out of any I've used in the past 3 months and I have seriously used 4 and played with another 6 - 8.
You don't need most of the features this offers and can find many which have fail-over, redundant, and many which claim to do load balancing. What matters is the least expensive one you can count on that won't break for the next few years unless you have a high wireless traffic household or think you will within the next few months.
You don't need Gigabit Switches and the latest and best of any communications hardware to handle bitcoin traffic. If you have the needs elsewhere in your home then I will also vouch for the Arris SURFboard SB6190 cable modem. I was able to add a fantastic hardware firewall, I use a mix of other equipment throughout the home and replaced the cable from the cable company box to the modem with the proper connections, good crimps, etc. The cable probably made things more consistent than anything else.
I have a great deal of traffic at my home and I still do not come close to using the full potential, so you do not need to spend a bunch of money, but if you are going to anyway, eh check out these things if you want.

Even if you only connect it when you are home so the internet fails over to your cell phone when you are there it covers quite a bit of time for most of us, and you can do this through your PC as well. I'm sure linux makes it much easier.

*Disclaimer, there are plenty of better products, I know, these are my experiences with my purchases, but if you have a specific recommendation regarding a product implementation to help someone have redundancy with their miners and / or nodes I am all ears. I think this is a sorely missed priority for many small miners, especially when many or maybe most already have the hardware to handle it.

Edit 1:
The iOS app for the router I mentioned is not what they show it to be yet. They have many categories listed, but most are not yet functional. Also, the MU-MIMO support has been released in alpha, but just an fyi it is not mainline. The specifications for exactly how mu-mimo is supposed to work haven't been finalized. All these companies are guessing at the standards with the routers they release. Out of them, this is a good one imo.

Kano,

Any future plans to have a way of removing old or renamed workers rather than waiting the full 7 days?

Good luck to everyone with  the avalon contest. Gr8 job Kano

No problem, i'm glad that i helped. Now be patient and wait for the 5N payout, after ~5days your payouts will be full, don't be disappointed on the next block reward

thanks so much to you for the image

I finally got it, thank you very much

Your miner should be configured as in this picture, for worker you put your USERNAME.worker1 USERNAME.worker2 etc

You apparently are mining on the pool using your Bitcoin address, this does not allow you to view speeds, etc.

If you sign up for an account and change your miner setting to mine with your username, then you can see your information.

It is on my to-do list.

Thanks ZACHM. Great tool! Recommend you add a page to the site that outlines what info is provided, such as the alerts and notices, and that provides instructions on how to use the rewards tracker, etc. Could be a very basic page.

I know you told me two times, but I do not know if it's feasible, or is normal that I do not see anything on the homepage?
I have to configure something?
it is feasible?
It is not feasible?
unfortunately google translador translates badly and will not let me get this straight

My S3 is going to win so ship one now.

Well did my taxes going to order 4 S7. Should be here in time for content.

Here (as long as Kano is OK with it) or the best is to email or PM me.

Rewards need to be entered manually.

I think Kano has answered several times.

Agree that this is a great tool and I just started using it. However I have a problem with it never showing my rewards. Don't know if it's a problem with the API key not providing the info and I'm not sure where to ask for help. Is there a topic on the ckpoolmonitor? Or, is this the place to ask?

tnx

I have another question I asked many times, but I did not understand,
you can see the speed on the homepage kano.is?

I do not see anything

excuse someone tells me what it means last 5ND reward?
ie what is

Just want to throw it out there to all the new users / miners to the pool.  If you're mining at Kano pool, definitely check out ZACHM tool at the site listed below.  When I switched to Kano pool, I missed a lot of the cool Slush features.  However with ZACHM's tool, Kano pool actually have even more fancy bells and whistles, like email alerts for blocks found, low hashrates and even accounting help with the rewards conversation from BTC to FIATs.  I'm really glad DMwardjr told me about this awesome tool.  This will keep me a loyal miner to this pool indefinitely.  It's so much more fun to get an email alert whenever a block is found then to check the pool every 15-30mins. 


Check out the tool and if you find it helpful for you, don't forget to send Zachm a small token of appreciation for his hard work.
