Have tried this using Kano I mined there for nearly a 3 weeks when hash rate was low guess about 1.2 phs ...and again when giving a Spondoolies SP-20.
After a block that lasted 6 days I confess I changed pool...

Do you know anyone can help me increase my hash power???
LoL

Yes Kano opinion is always apreciated lets see what he has to say.

Well, he's going to suggest that you try kano.is obviously as its one of the best pools going and you can always have solo.ckpool as your back up, hell, maybe even a load balance even. That's rollin' the dice now!

This will give you the average expected time to find a current block:
http://tradebtc.net/bitcalc.php
Just can enter your hash rate as the pool.
So ... if your average expected time to find a block is 100hrs and you mine for 10hrs then ... you do the math Cheesy

Hi I know the odds are not with my side that is why I dont rent for longer periods
I runned solo for a week with my equipment 22ths nothing happened
so after some days I runned again with rented hash just to try it.
As said in the earlier pages you either need balls of steel and I add or steal electricity...
dont and cant have both selections so mine as usual under a pool.

Maybe kano can help here, but I think that you are better off overall with running the 22th on a regular pool and just renting a lot of hashpower for a short period of time.

FYI

While streaming Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978) I had CGMiner 4.9.1 close & exit twice while mining at solo.ckpool.org, I switched pools to bitcoind running locally and it's been going without exiting for about 30 mins now. I'm running the Windows build of CGMiner and it had been running for about 24 hours and only started crashing while watching the movie.

I haven't seen this behavior before, I just upgraded the miner to CGMiner from BFGMiner yesterday.

You've clearly run into that rare incompatibility between CGMiner, Windows and the streaming of a bad horror video on the same wifi network. Such unwelcome bandwidth harmonics only affects CGMiner 4.7 and higher. It is recommended that you downgrade CGMiner or switch back to BFGMiner immediately, or upgrade to Linux.

And count yourself lucky it wasn't a good horror movie. I bricked a whole stack of S4's binge-watching the Saw movies that way!

I streamed one of the Superman animated movies (low res off YouTube) last night and all the eruptors lit up again. I alt-tabbed out of full-screen to find the system had ground to halt, I even had no mouse action for a few seconds and CGMiner complained about lack of work but it didn't crash like while mining at solo.ckpool.org.

also pool must have restarted yesterday

Pool stats reported here:
http://solo.ckpool.org/pool/

Recent snapshot:

Code:

{"runtime": 2023818, "lastupdate": 1425386722, "Users": 167, "Workers": 389, "Idle": 146, "Disconnected": 17}

i.e. it's been up for over 3 weeks based on that runtime continuously so no restart. Next scheduled downtime is in 5 days as mentioned earlier for VPS provider security upgrades.

Now to figure out why my U3 is a ZOMBIE. It's always something...

Oh that one's easy to answer. Because the U3 is a steaming pile of shit. Keep downclocking/downvolting it till it's stable for at least 24 hours. Then unplug everything and restart it daily.

I had it stable for a week stock voltage/freq with the factory power supply, then got a new 850watt psu to use with the S1 and hooked the U3 to it as well. Messed around with overclocking, went as high as 800v/250freq, it ran stable for several hours, then ZOMBIE. Full reset it and everything else, re-zadig, and running stock volt/freq again, was stable overnight. Seems to only be stable at stock settings unfortunately. I see about 42-50gh out of it, was getting 60gh oc'd.

Hmm, that's concerning. Why would my wallet generate an address that's no good? I'll try the S1 with the same address my U3 is using, I know that one works.

I'd like to know what tool you used to generate invalid addresses? Did you copy-paste them or manually retyped them?

Thanks!

I used Bitcoin Wallet on my android phone, had it send the address directly to my email account, and I copy/pasted it from there. Not sure where I lost a digit in that process, but I'll assume it must be user error because I've used that walled to generate keys several times and not had an issue before.

Well I'll toss that address out. I generated another one and verified it was valid, thanks for the heads ups.

Figured out the rest of my issue, was a dns problem. Working on the pool successfully now, thank you.

double and triple check the typing. I am pretty sure I copied you exactly.

So if you are correct and I am correct. Then your wallet is wrong or blockchain info is wrong.
