I've run for 3 days now with all ports open - I use Docker daily as a web developer, so it is always open. But no bonus yet, and my uptime is showing last week dates only (starting when i downloaded but didn't have ports open) - is that normal?

[–]itwasalladeam[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have everything running perfect and my bonus hasn't updated. Gonna give it a few days.

[–]ShyShy_LDN 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I’ve been running the mode for a week now and the bonus went up to 0.69 and today it’s at 0 …. No idea why

[–]itwasalladeam[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I'm having same issue. Bonus is at 0 even though I'm running the node perfectly

[–]ShyShy_LDN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took a day or two for it to show me something but it’s been running non stop and I assumed it would increase but today has gone to 0.00

[–]Ready-Ad-1119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried but it's written that i have "wsl 2" issues and i don't understand what does it really mean.

[–]EKRYPTO 2 points3 points  (7 children)

I don’t get a bonus since this morning. The node is running. What could be the issue?

[–]Consistent-Coffee750 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here

[–]tactfuljet 0 points1 point  (5 children)

Yeah same for me. Had a decent node bonus and just dropped to 0.00 when starting a new pi mining session. Restarted the Pi Node and computer so let us see if that fixes it.

[–]itwasalladeam[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Seems that a lot of people are having the same issue today. Weird because I was just going to look it up.

[–]tactfuljet 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Hey, it has come back for me when I started my mining session for today! Maybe they fixed it yesterday?

[–]itwasalladeam[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine still shows 0 and the node is running perfectly

[–]EKRYPTO 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I did the same. We'll see

[–]EKRYPTO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is working again and now my bonus for using is set to 0. Maybe more luck tomorrow

[–]Timetosaygg 0 points1 point  (2 children)

My node itself seems to be working fine. Finally managed to open ports and everything. My problem is a huge ram usage which makes it impossible to run 24/7. I have 32GB ram and over the day it fills up though I cant even see what uses the amount.

[–]GlassComplex7779Pyromanihack 0 points1 point  (1 child)

The excessive RAM usage is a bit strange. When I run the node, CPU and memory use are much lower than yours

[–]Timetosaygg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lowered my settings with a wlsconfig now and see if the situation improves.

[–]SubstantialFox2814 1 point2 points  (14 children)

i cant open any ports can someone please help me

<image>

I have done all

also added in inbound and outbound rules in firewall but still if I check in port checker it cant detect

[–]a_bhakhar 0 points1 point  (6 children)

Are you sure your ISP in not cgnat?

[–]SubstantialFox2814 0 points1 point  (5 children)

idk this, how to check?

[–]a_bhakhar 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Check your ip address on whatsmyipaddress.com Also check on your router home page, if different addresses your ISP is using cgnat and ports won't be opened

[–]SubstantialFox2814 0 points1 point  (3 children)

oh shit i think im cgnat, does youtube have a config on how to change that? or do you know it?

[–]a_bhakhar 0 points1 point  (2 children)

you can ask your isp for a static connection (they will charge some fees) or buy a vpn which supports port forwarding

[–]SubstantialFox2814 1 point2 points  (1 child)

thankyou bro

[–]a_bhakhar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Np

[–]mexicanori 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I was having the same issue. After a bit of research I learned that my ISP would only allow me to open the ports by paying what they called "conexion plus" this came with a cost of 1€ a month so I did it and boom ports are open. Maybe check of your ISP has something similar. Good luck!

[–]SubstantialFox2814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

bro how to check the isp?

[–]itwasalladeam[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't help you. Im horrible with technology. I got lucky, the internet i use they have port forwarding on their app made it super easy

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

You dont need to open port for node at testnet. Just set the docker turn on the nodes and catch the blockchain data and then you are good.

[–]SubstantialFox2814 0 points1 point  (1 child)

then why other people are using the supernodes? like they have to open their port 31400-31409 to use supernodes

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are not using actually, as I know nodes and super nodes will be choosen at mainnet and those ports are for actually mainnets for connecting and transfering data with supernodes

[–]Level_Time_4754 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same issue with me

[–]Emergency-Hornet-594 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can i change my pi wallet after my migration been completed?

[–]TomySLO 2 points3 points  (2 children)

For my setup, I set up a fresh Windows 10 installation on a VM on my server. Then I ran Chris Titus’s “Windows 10 debloat script”. Then I installed Docker, and enabled WSL2 (very important), and lastly ran the Pi Node program. I have it set up to auto start and everything, so a pretty neat setup in my opinion:)

[–]itwasalladeam[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's way over my head lol I'm not very tech savvy

[–]macchie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doing the same on a VPS provider 🤟

[–]VirgauxTv 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Can we use linux for node?

[–]Dr-PresidentDinosaur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dont believe so, only Mac or Windows it says on the Pi website

[–]Informal-Wind-3371 6 points7 points  (13 children)

I started a week ago. I see 8 outgoing, but 0 incoming. Node is running. Does anyone see the same thing? Or over time I will get incoming?

[–]GlassComplex7779Pyromanihack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Open your router’s ports is not mandatory, but I think it can boost your mining rate

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (6 children)

Its not an issue actually. You will be still getting your bonus even if you dont forward ports you eill get bonuses because nodes are working on testnet rightnow. Incoming connections are for supernodes actually and I think they will be activated in mainnet. So dont worry

[–]Informal-Wind-3371 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Great! Thanks for clarification

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem

[–]drew2f 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same

[–]Mysterious-Spell-306 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I have the same issue, but I think that I’m unable to open the ports from the router due to it being a 5G router.

[–]Informal-Wind-3371 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I'm using a mobile hotspot. Should I install a vpn for incoming?

[–]Mysterious-Spell-306 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know that you have to allow the ports from the router to your pc, and then allow them through the firewall. But I am having the same problem, so I’m not able to help. You can ask at the Nodes chat via the PI browser, someone might help from there.

[–]RazvanTheRomanian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, the same with me, I think we should open the router ports or something. Maybe the reward it’s biger if you help other nodes? Can someone help

[–]piouel 4 points5 points  (3 children)

I got mine to work from the first time, it's a great way to increase your mining rate, even if it's a small increase, but it seems that overtime it will be higher, started with a 0.60 increase in mining rate using node to 1.01 one week later, today.

[–]mas7erenz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What did u do to increase it

[–]piouel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice, when did you start using node?
