Indeed it is. We are planning on releasing a two part video series on mining in the near future. Hopefully this will be more useful to people like you :)
thanks but the old way was more efficient why do we need to install the wallet on every pc we want to use it just for mining and if this possible please show us how we can do it
I already have a monero wallet in the cloud, my configuration would be simple mode? Because I want what I mine to be automatically sent to that monero wallet (using Linux).
hello I download the wallet advace mode and the node is not getting conect it and is the last version and also is not an issue with the antivirus how I can fix it the connection?
Thank you my friend. Do you have any idea why my payouts have decreased since enabling huge pages on linux... The hashrate has increased but the frequency of payouts has decreased. Could this be because difficulty is rising in P2Pool?
I'm not sure this will be related to huge pages. The fact your hashrate has increased is a good thing. The hashrates of the main p2pool chain and mini have both decreased recently. Do you know which chain you are using? Have you checked P2Pool.observer to see what is going on?
@@MoneroGuides I am using the Mini chain. Since asking the question my payouts have resumed at more regular intervals perhaps it was due to --disable-dns-checkpoints --enable-dns-blocklis? If I run into further problems with mining I will take a closer look at p2pool.observer.

Hi thanks so much for this, really helpful. I have followed guide and set up everything - It allows me to mine, however I have been unable to receive any incoming connections. I am unable to access my router, however I do have PIA VPN which allows port forwarding. Can I still receive incoming connections with this VPN, without accessing the router? - Could you advise please? Also, I have left the miner on for 24 hours and not received anything yet, are incoming connections required for mining? - I would like to set them up in any case if possible to help the network.
I'm on linux and have some weird issue I don't know how to fix where the status will just be stuck on "starting p2pool" Solo mining works fine. I followed all the steps in the video except for installing the monero-wallet-gui straight through pacman using the default repositories. Any ideas? I have already tried disabling the firewall in my router
please don't disable your firewall, this is bad idea! without knowing the version you are using, i can't really help. please follow the guide and you should be fine.
On average how long should it take to find a block? I've tried the observer several times over the past 2 days and nothing is showing. Is 1553 H/s good or bad?
i have an old intel 6500 on an ancient HP office computer. only about 1000 h/s on that one and takes multiple days to get a reward. my ryzen cpu has much better hashrate and it takes 1-2 days to get a reward. in rare cases it might take 3 days. i guess the higher the hashrate the more frequent the payout. im not sure about this though
