I'm hoping someone can give me a quick solution here.

I'm trying to connect to slush's pool (or any pool at this point) using the stratum proxy running on one of my PCs.
I run the SP, restart my blade which points to the IP of the machine running SP and everything seems ok.
but no matter what I do I cannot get it to stay connected for more than 2 min. 20 sec. after that the blade resets and disconnects from the pool.
I did find a temporary solution which is to point my blade at a cloud-based stratum proxy which works great and nothing resets.
I would be content with that other than the fact that now my blades run at only 50% hash rate.
I'm not sure if this is because im using a cloud-based SP or not but i would like to find out.

I also tried very many times to run either BFGMiner or CGMiner with zero success.
I read and follow the instructions very carefully and still cannot make it work.

I just want to get these blades hashing at full capacity! =)

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Would any experienced miners care to help me out?

It's not just you. I'm having the exact same problem. I've tried bfg and Slush's mining proxy with the same result. All goes fine for several minutes then it stops. Tried building out a Windows server in my office where I have any and all resources availible to me and still getting the same result. Running out of ideas. Not sure why it's working for some but many seem to be having the same issue. Maybe someone can reach out to Slush???

Unfortunately it did not work. Same issue as before, starts off looking fine, BFGMiner starts ok, restart blade with proper config, acts likes its gonna work... Then at 2 min. it resets.
I tried BTCGuild and Slush's pool. I even tried multiple blades and ports. no matter what i do its the same result.
I know its not the blade because they hash just fine when pointed at the stratum proxy in the cloud.
I've been dealing with this for over 3 days now. Am I missing something here? I feel like a total idiot at this point.

How long have you let it go? I had a hell of a time getting my Blade working through any Stratum proxy. Worked fine if I pointed it directly at a pool via GetWork. Then I let it go overnight pointed at a Stratum proxy and it was fine by morning. I've read other such posts as well. Worth mentioning.

Thanks for the suggestion, thats good to know, i will let it run when i go to sleep tonight.

Although I have let it go for quite some time... problem is it keeps resetting every 2 min. so it never has a chance to get up to speed.

I also had no problem connecting to Eliguis pool using getwork, works just fine other than the fact that its super slow and hashes at like 20%.

Here is a screenshot of the same problem using BFGMiner:

Sure, run bfgminer as such:

Code:

bfgminer --http-port 8332 -o some.pool.com -u user.worker -p password

Then configure your Blade and point it at the IP address of the machine where bfgminer is running. That should be it.

Thanks for your reply!
