I have tried the firmware of smith with cgminer 4.9, but does not change anything on the site nicehash, the miner fall the same,
this and a problem of their pool, not the miners,

Dear nicehash/westhash admins/programmers.
If you disconnect miners that have been idle for 5 minutes you will get into a never ending fight with cgminer clients that only fail back to stable pools after 5 minutes leading to a persistent resonating failure. Can I suggest you increase your disconnect timer to longer, say 10 minutes, if you must have one.

some of you are using firmware smith with cgminer 4.9? for antminer s5?
I only like to run it on ones that run off the SD card. I have used the S4, and C1. Smit did a very nice job on the firmware. Works great with nicehash/westhash.
I usually go back to original after I'm done mining here just so I'm running official firmware.

Have that on all my S5's. Bitmain doesn't want to make their own so we have to use other people's talents in programming.
Run very stable.

spondoolies is no longer in production 
For home mining it looks like. I'm hoping small scale business miners will still be able to purchase their products.
One has to wonder because if you go to their site all the products listed as "out of stock".
While I never had the opportunity to try their boxes out, it was always on my bucket list.

Yes, that's what I use on all 6 of my S5s.
I haven't had a lockup, but if there's a lot of swapping back and for the hash rate on the S5s will drop to around 1th/s once they're back on their primary pool until you reboot. For now I've just put the price so high on the S5s they won't switch over unless its very lucrative.
All of the Spondoolies boxes can swap back and forth at will without issue.

just rented some at 0.0093 btc/TH/day so really cheap at the moment.
April 28, 2015, 10:56:24 AM
What causes the rate to drop below the direct mining rate? Is it because there is less demand for hash power due to the low price of BTC now?
It's based on the orders put in. If fewer people request hash, there is less competing and price goes down.
Currently It's 8 percent under BTC mining. I think it's obvious a lot are not using password to set a minimum payment. I think at 0 percent they should point it twords a regular pool. I suggested that as a feature.
Anyways right now good time if you want to buy hash.

A feature I suggest is set it where current pay can not go under current BTC price. For example it's -8 percent compared to just mining right now.
Since it appears people are not using price control, i suggest putting that limit. Maybe direct hash to regular btc pool, when it's under current btc expected earning.

haha good thing it was a small order

lol, somebody is overpaying a bit; probably missed a zero

I do not know what to say, I tried both with firmware that smit with firmware ogiginale of, the fall of the same hash and also avendoxnsub activated, and then compensatory payments only the first time I had three payments in a day, never four, maybe because I was lucky to find 15 blocks, so at least there was written on the page of my s5 
2 very simple questions.
how many s-5's do you rent to nicehash?
what are you setting the password to?
the 15 blocks found means nothing as the person renting from you is not mining btc 1 s-5 can not find 15 blocks in 1 day. It is next to impossible odds for that to happen.
the chance of you finding 1 block on btc with 1 s-5 is:
1 in 2000 each day.
2 blocks is 2,000 x 2,000
3 blocks is 2,000 x 2,000 x 2,000
4 blocks is 2,000 x 2,000 x 2,000 x 2,000
by the time you get to 15 blocks it is a really big number .
You are getting little diff coin and it wreaks havoc with your gear. Too much work on the controller.
May I ask what country you are in?
please try westhash for 6 hours then try nicehash for 6 hours one may work a lot better for you.
other suggestion set your pass word to p=0.0104 you may get better results but really check the low end miners
low end is at 0.0106
if you go under by a little bit you may get stable results

It makes me wonder if you are not meting requirements. How much hash do you have pointed twords nicehash?
Also it's around 5 percent less than BTC so a lot will be pointing away from nicehash for the moment.
