Antminer K5 not working after 2 hours

Can’t post more due to new user restrictions

hey do you mine ADA? me and my dad like that coin and would be interested in mining it

Hey, please connect the miner back on so we can perform a network trace of it. This will be the easiest and fastest solution. Let us know that you connected it.

Easiest and fastest for who exactly? This customer who trusted your pool to run as expected and advertised? It’s not cool to take people’s money, then pay a reputable site with said money and expect everything to be kosker.

I tested my bitmain antminer k5 mining eaglesong on nicehash and ran into similar issues as you. here’s my write-up on my NH CKB nervos mining testing

It is the easiest and fastest way for all.

Eaglesong stratum works for all GPU miners without any issues.

K5 is a new device on the market, unfortunately we did not have an opportunity to test it out yet. There could be many issues like difficulty settings, wrong protocol used by K5 (some manufacturers use a bit different protocols for some algorithms. Z9 and Z11 are one of them), and may other possibilities.

You just don’t get it buddy. Your paying customers are not tools for your benefit. Hope I never see anyone else suggest pushing any hashes to that site.

Hello I tried it on f2pool and it runs stable. The problem is with NiceHash. Thanks for the tips now I’m happy about the K5 :grinning: close the thread :sweat_smile:

Well I am interested in trying out the Toddminer C1 on NICEHASH but will it be worth the effort? Ive not had any issues with Sparkpool what so ever. I did have the issue of not being able to connect to F2Pool. Is there a major difference between the pools and the payout for mining? I should be getting 4 C1 Pros this week in through DHL. I hope to have them all on the most productive pool, @VoskCoin whom do you suggest?

Any suggestions for setting up Toddminer C1 on NiceHash?

NiceHash the miner does not work; it works for 30 minutes or 1 hour and stops.f2pool is working nice

Please use our stratum generator: https://www.nicehash.com/stratum-generator

@NiceHash,its not work!!

Apparently Antminer K5 does not support extranonce subscription. We cannot tell the miner when we are about to switch it to another order, that is why you are getting disconnects.

There is nothing we can do about it, the bitmain should alter their firmware to allow xnsub support. These are our stratum protocol specifications and they should follow this: https://github.com/nicehash/Specifications/blob/master/NiceHash_extranonce_subscribe_extension.txt

Yes, everyone should be serving you. But, it’s really cool you wasted people’s times and money with your awesome suggestions.

Rocky please be more respectful, I understand you are unhappy with NiceHash and your experience with them but the continually bashing and toxicity is not the goal of this forum.

If you’d like to compile your experience into a review that’s one thing, but please stop harassing @NiceHash.

This company has and continues to be toxic to the ndustry. Just because they are a paid sponsor does not make that fact any less true.

You’ve more than said your piece, I want to look forward to getting onto this forum to read positive and constructive input — along with everyone else

VoskCoinTalk is going to be a better bitcointalk and a better crypto reddit.

Final warning

Ha ha, let me pose you this question… Would the term shitcoin even exist if it was not for this right here?
