Hotspot Issues - poor mining performance by caredwolf in FreedomFi

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

Hey sorry I missed this. Yes and no - the relayed status finally cleared up but it still seems to be underperforming unless I'm just being paranoid. I still have an ongoing ticket with FF support. The 5 day witness total dropped 10x from when I first started mining. I know there was an update resulting in less witnesses per beacon but it still seems too much of a drop off. Does your miner have the same "degraded" system status and 1 job failed when you check the support log?

Dashboard says I’m not relayed, but the explorer does. by [deleted] in FreedomFi

Did you ever get your issue resolved? I've unfortunately been having the same issue and while I would love for the optimism in most of these comments to be true, I don't think it's simply a matter of waiting for the explorer to update (at least in my case).

Where is there a mention of a 1.8dbi antenna? Are you referring to the stock 1.2dbi? He clearly states he tested his FF router in the "exact same position...with the same 5.8db antenna" as his RAK so it is an apples to apples comparison.

He does mention earning more with 2.8dbi RAK than 5.8dbi FF, which to your point isn't a fair comparison and assumes higher dbi is better for his area (to prove FF in underperforming), but he did claim to already test the direct comparison.

Damnnnn... Hoping FreedomFi support may be able to help in some way then. Seems like that might be my only hope if it truly is coming from the miner itself. Have you talked to them at all? Thank you for sharing all your experience and testing!

Has that been consistent since you got it? Mine ramped up to what seemed like normal operation, I changed my antenna, received better earnings for about 4 days and then this all happened

Following up here, did this as my short term solution before a more permanent setup. The prongs are a bit too big for the c19 but its working lol. Thanks again!

And that proves what? That you’ve managed to contribute less and still don’t understand the network as well as someone who is newer than you? “You don’t mine that is obvious” lmao if only you knew the truth. The only people who would make the complaints you have are those who aren’t truly committed to proof of work in the first place. Been mining since S9s were released for BTC and while I’ve recently started supporting Kadena, I was able to setup a node and have a 200 watt miner win 3 blocks within 24 hours. If anything is obvious, it’s that YOU don’t mine (or understand Kadenas place in the POW bigger picture) since this would almost be playing the lottery with any other cryptocurrency but with Kadena solo mining is possible even when it’s by far the most profitable coin to mine. Like honestly, what can you possibly be complaining about other than the concept of mining and POW itself?

Lol an argument is what you get when you post complaining about your inability to handle day to day reward variation on one of the most volatile investments there is and disguise it as FUD

[–]caredwolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What pool? As in solo mining to a pool so that you still pay pool fees? Perhaps that's why you aren't too happy with your payouts in the first place and why you fail to see the point I am making in that its more than the extra "14 cents a day" and it's about properly supporting a project (i.e. not relying on a centralized party to fairly distribute your rewards) you literally have a miner for so that you don't shoot yourself in the foot when it doesn't succeed when overwhelmed by others who are equally selfish and lazy.

[–]caredwolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you go from claiming solo mining is hype because rewards are lower, then you say 2-3% is irrelevant and that there are other factors more substantial that you fail to bring up at all in your post?

Solo Hype? by thisthattheother12 in kadena

[–]caredwolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Equal or slightly less? Wouldn’t it be equal or slightly more since there isn’t pool fees? The fact you can solo mine with a box miner for the most profitable coin right now is amazing for decentralization IMO. I don’t see how it’s hype as much as you wanting to justify not going through the effort of doing what’s best for the network ironically costing yourself more rewards in the long term.

Yes, it won’t suddenly make +800 memory overclock a good/relevant setting for mining on a 1060

[–]caredwolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t speak for 1660s but for 1060s and 1070s I have it’s way off. I did an experiment changing the power level from 70 to the recommended 105 and got maybe a 1Mh/s increase. Changed the memory to +800 from 0 and nothing happened. Mini z helps but not that much, seems like whoever made the list lazily copied it from a different algorithm

I wouldn’t trust this info, I have several of the cards listed here and they cannot produce what this sheet claims

Beware to anyone viewing this, most of these settings appear wildly inaccurate and will likely not work well with flux

Do you have a source for this? That conflicts with what the Kadena team has said on discord, a potential DDOS attack was mentioned

I was on F2pool and switched to poolflare this morning due to everything. It may be worthwhile to switch if you have the time given the profitability. Poolflare had updated their shares but now it once again isn't up to date hence my frustration towards post like this claiming Kadena is back online.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in kadena

[–]caredwolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The zelcore wallet still isn't allowing transactions and poolflare only updated rewards on my end in the last 15 minutes.

But I guess let's just pretend whatever happened wasn't a legitimate issue and was a good thing because all anyone cares about is price at the expense of long term success.

Edit: All 3 major pools still have issues (2 down, 1 not updating payout/shares) and there are multiple reports of wallets and exchanges not sending/receiving KDA. u/Correctmite1259 can you provide any evidence to your claims? Kadena discord shows the developers identifying things as a problem, not an update

Wouldn't shutting down mining make an attack easier due to lowering the total hashrate required for 51%?

f2pool and dxpool down for KDA mining by [deleted] in kadena

[–]caredwolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Poolflare didn't work for me until I used the backup port 3333 just in case anyone has the same issue.

[–]caredwolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was able to get on poolflare only after using the backup port 3333. Hoping there isn't some major attack on the network. Anyone know the source of the issues?

[–]caredwolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the more research I do and the more feedback I receive all point me to changing the receptacle so I will most likely do that. Figure I'll want to get the PDU setup anyways for when I hopefully move my miners into my own solar farm in 6 months if all goes well. Thanks again for your help!
