Topic: Network drops out when running mining software (Read 313 times)
so turns out the graphics cards were interfering with the wifi signal and wrapping foil around the antenna fixed the issue!
The same problem for me, I'm not sure it dues to wifi connection is not stable or my receiver antenna is weak (~5dBi), connection drops like every 15 mins. So finally I still have to use ethernet.
I'm going to try via ethernet and see if this works , already tried disabling IPv6 and didn't make a difference, admittedly my internet is terrible but most of the time good enough to stream tv/movies.
How do you disabled ssl on the miner?

I have this problem on and off, and it is really about internet stability. I'd try replacing the dongle with an actual wifi card. But first you could try mining without ssl, disabling IPv6 and if al else fails, a proxy.
Hi,
I have a usb wi-fi dongle plugged into my asus prime A with 5 x MSI Gaming X running on one rig and another wifi dongle , asus prime-A with 3 x MSI gaming x on another
The issue I’m having is that as soon as I run the EWBF or any other miner the dongle drops out, I am unable to ping 8.8.8.8 ( it drops out the exact second the miner tries to connect to a pool)
Strange thing it was working fine yesterday but my GPU was causing issues and kept stopping or losing connection to the pool
I have 2 mining rigs both doing the same thing but the problem occurred within hours of each other (one was working fine whilst the other had this issue)
I can mine from my laptop fine without the network dropping out so I don't believe it is a network issue.
My rigs are running win10 home and win10 pro
Tcp/ip settings look fine, hosts file looks correct
Any ideas?
