Miner appearing offline - Frustrating

xonlythebravex · July 28, 2021, 8:36am

Hi all,

Im relatively new to mining and have a rig with 13 GPU’s. On occasion the miner seems to hang and shows offline. This requires a hard restart on the motherboard to get it up and running again.

I have checked the logs but there isn’t anything in them to suggest what the issue could be. I thought the rig may be losing internet connection as im using a TP-Link power line adapter but I have setup a script to ping google.com and if this fails, the script automatically reboots the rig. It seems that after a reboot the miner never starts or does start as on the physical monitor it just hangs and I cant interact.

Sometimes the rig can be on all night, and day and not crash but then will crash for no reason. Ive never really had a full straight week without some issue with it being offline.
Ive done a lot of research on the overclocks, and nothing points to that being the issue either. Im mining Ethereum with ethermine using nbminer.
Any suggestions would be great. See attached screenshots.

Just to add I rarely get any invalid shares and I am using the Hashrate Watchdog.
Just been checking the logs abit more and discovered that the rig reboots but then cant resolve api.hiveos.farm and then hangs. Not sure why this is happening
