Hi, simple question, I hope. Is there a base usage of internet using ASIC miners? I have a KD6, KD5 & L7… I want to ensure the machines are getting all the internet they need, but I currently only have the service at my house and i’m building a shop to house the machines and want to ensure the best performance possible. Thank you in advance for your thoughts and knowledge!

Your concern is the latency more than your bandwidth typical packet sizes are small so it is about the latency of your service that impacts how many stale shares you get.

ok, I appreciate that… don’t know much about the latency… so my internet access is line of sight… supposed to be up to 25Mbps down load… but noticed an issue recently and have work order in to check it out… I will ask about the Latency. Thank you.
If you know the IP for the pool you can do a ping test to that IP and it will return latency results for that specific connection. If you can I would try and set the DNS your internet is using as often the DNS of a provider is slower and this can impact latency.
