I got my L3 from Eastshore.xyz one week ago. It is currently mining on antpool.com (around 1.3 LTC/day), but I could not manage to get it working on nicehash. Is anybody doing it?

I tried using

URL :  scrypt.eu.nicehash.com:3333
Worker: [BITCOIN_ADDRESS]
Password: x

and

URL: scrypt.eu.nicehash.com:3333#xnsub
Worker: [BITCOIN_ADDRESS]
Password: x

But the miners says the status of the pool is "Dead"...

This is what I got from Nicehash after sending them all the info:

It seems that this Antminer L3 has issues with mining anything but pure Litecoin. Obviously Bitmain did a bad job in implementing the software/firmware of this miner. You might want to contact them and let them now about these issues.

Any help will be appreciated


I am running a DC with L3s.
I can confirm that the following will work:

You must use a (/) between 3333()#xnsub for this miner.

URL: stratum+tcp://scrypt.usa.nicehash.com:3333/#xnsub
Worker: [BITCOIN_ADDRESS]
Password: x
or
URL: stratum+tcp://scrypt.eu.nicehash.com:3333/#xnsub
Worker: [BITCOIN_ADDRESS]
Password: x

IF solo mining:
Drop the (/#xnsub) and use your Litecoin wallet address not a Bitcoin address or a exchange deposit Litecoin address.

URL: stratum+tcp://stratum.solo.nicehash.com:3333
Worker: [LITECOIN_ADDRESS]
Pssword: x

Try and advise.

Note that in the status tab, "/#xnsub" is mising. But I connected to de L3 by ssh and confirmed that the used config file includes it:

Seems that my L3 is "hardcoded" to work only with antpool!!!
