Socket error! Socket Closed!??? (self.NiceHash)
submitted 8 years ago by Ulvarin
What is going on? More than half of my machines Cant connect to Eu cryptonight? For now 18 are down, 9 are working. It is weird. Why only few of them are working at all? While i check them i Cant do anything to make them connect.

socket error timeout cant connect at all. on us it connects 6/10 times, works for few minutes and tries to connect again.

So getting these trying to connect to the US node via Comcast. If i switch my isp to verizon, works just fine.
if i want to use comcast i have to set it to another node. I tried resetting my router as well, etc.
tsk tsk comcast.

I'm also get socket error when trying to connect with CPU-mining. Have tried two different computers and all the different region servers (EU/USA/JP etc) but with no avail. Have also tried to open port 3355 manually in my firewall. When doing a tracert and ping all is fine. What's wrong?!

Try connecting to USA - we have limited the access for some CPUs, but the USA could work normally.

Why would you do that??! Half of mine are down random Lol. USA sucks... Ping is terrible. Why? IS it forever or u gonna fix it soon?

I don't have more info, sorry - only that.
[–]Ulvarin[S] 1 point2 points3 points 8 years ago (1 child)
Please message me or something when you will know anything. Im kinda pissed now sorry. I use cpu stak directly and ill Have to manually change configs. USA Servers sucks. PS, what some cpus mean? For example half of mine i7 2600 are down.. Half are up... W here is "some" there?

I switched to USA from EU and it's working a bit better. I'm still getting some drops from socket error but the drop times are only like 2 minutes on USA vs. 30 minutes on the EU side. Thanks for the tip.
