It's all the same here as it has been for 6-7 months now.... perhaps try submitting a support ticket?  Are you using Nicehash 2.0? That's still in Alpha state so if you're on it try the current version to see if the bugs go away when running NiceHashMiner_v1.7.5.13 instead of 2.0 Alpha version.

I have used NH for many years with no issues at all.
I don't use their miner tool. I just point my miners to their site and collect BTC for my hash.

I quit them when ETH went to the moon but they didn't adjust their payouts for a long time.
I recently decided to go back. Their site has changed quite a bit.

So I pointed 5 rigs at the new NH. rig1, rig2,etc... and within minutes some of the rigs disappeared from the screen and my NH hash on the webpage dropped.
I thought o crap rigs down! SSH'd in and nope all running fine.
Then I thought ok its Claymore doing his devfee part. Changed all rigs to Genoil and tried again.
Over the course of 24 hours the rigs would appear and disappear randomly and my hash would rise and drop accordingly. Not one single rig ever went down and no devfee stuff happened.
My average hashrate was way down.

I switched to Nanopool still on Genoil for 24 hours. No rigs ever disapperaed and hash stayed pretty consistent.
I switched to Ethermine still on Genoil for 24 hours. No rigs ever disappeared and hash stayed pretty consistent.
I switched BACK to NH still on Genoil for 24 hours. Same shit. They are here!  wait a minute...2 are gone...wait 3 are gone...wait 5 are back! wait a few etc......

So I smell a rat! WTH is NH doing manipulating the hash? My rigs were rock steady during the tests and mining like crazy.
I also wanted to add that before this new NH the old NH did NOT do this! All rigs would remain on screen even if Claymore was taking his fee.

Anyone else notice this behavior?
