Proxy IP Settings for EtherCenter: ETH Mining Pool Connection Configuration Proxy IP Tutorial

Why do miners need proxy IPs?

Recently a lot of miners brother asked me, digging ETH mining pool old drop line how to do? In fact, eighty percent of the IP is marked by the mining pool. Mining pool server is not a fool, the same IP dozens of machines connected to dig, immediately give you a sticker!Abnormal Traffic LabelingThe first thing you need to do is to use a proxy IP to get the job done. Using a proxy IP is like putting a vest on a mining machine, each machine wears a different vest to get the job, and the pool can't tell who's who.

Last week, a Yunnan mining boss, 20 mining machines all use the same public IP, the result is the mining pool to limit the number of connections. Later changed ipipgo's dynamic residential IP, now each machine independent IP, arithmetic statistics have never gone wrong.

Choosing the right package is a technical skill

The ipipgo packages look like a lot, but there is actually a trick to choosing them. Drawing a focus for the guys:

Hands-on agent matching

Take the HiveOS system as an example, follow the steps correctly:

 First generate the API key in the ipipgo backend
curl -x socks5://user:pass@proxy.ipipgo.com:32000
https://api.ethermine.org/worker/stats

Be careful to putuserChange it to your account ID.passFill in the exclusive password. Don't copy the port number, each region gives different ports.

There's an easy place to fall:Always choose the right type of agreementETH mining pools generally use HTTP protocol, if you choose socks5 by mistake, the miner will not be able to connect until dawn.

A practical guide to avoiding the pit

1. EncounterConnection refusedDon't panic, it is likely that the IP is overused. Dynamic residential IPs start at 1G of traffic per month, and we recommend that you turn on a traffic monitor in your miner's settings.

2. Mining pool showing high latency? Try ipipgo'sTK LineIn addition, the cross-border routes have been optimized.

3. Remember to add a -proxy-randomize parameter in the mining machine configuration, so that the proxy IP switch randomly

Things Miners Always Ask

Q: Will using a proxy reduce the computing power?
A: A good proxy can boost the speed instead! Last time I tested ipipgo's cross-border line, the latency dropped from 380ms to 90ms!

Q: How do I respond if my IP is blocked?
A: Immediately go to the ipipgo client pointEmergency IP changeButton, three seconds to cut new IP

Q: How are IPs assigned to multiple mining pools?
A: It is recommended to use different IPs for different mining pools, such as Singapore IP for Asian mining pools and Germany IP for European mining pools.

Say something from the heart.

This proxy IP thing is like a condom for the miner, it doesn't feel like it's there, but it's there in a pinch. ipipgo'sDedicated Static IPIt's a bit more expensive (35 bucks/month), but it's suitable for the main miner to be tied to for a long time. Don't save this small amount of money, one day the mining pool will block the IP and cause the earnings to plummet, that's a big loss.

Lastly, I'd like to remind newbies: don't try to buy a pheasant proxy for a cheap price! Some unscrupulous merchants sell shared IPs, ten miners squeeze a single IP, die faster than not using a proxy. We mining is about the long term, choose a reliable proxy service provider, it is worth the money!
