Hello Guys,
I have an idea of bringing my own Mining Rig to my office/workplace to free my Electric Bill but I just want to know if anybody in this forum is doing the same way.
What problems did you encounter?

Talk to me please.. THanks

It's a great idea but internet connection in my office is filtered. It doesn't connect to any coin servers or whatever they have.
The wallet doesn't get synced and minergate like app also don't take the proxy connection.

My company was in IT field, it have many filters and firewall rules, proxy, etc.

What I did was, I use a PC at home create a VPN server. Because of my lab can access the internet so I set up my rig as a VPN cilent so it can access the minning pool. You may have some technical knowledge. Of course, you are playing the hide and seek game with the IT department so be prepare for consequence.

P/s sorry for my bad English, not my native.

Bad Idea for you I think its good for me and maybe I can allow myself bringing and doing IT or hardware stuff since I though people around me have no idea about crypto currency and mining etc. If I'm going to bring a Rig then they would have no idea what I'm up to.. LOL

Hi,
please suggest me a way through.
My office connection is filtered centrally using juniper web filtering and also fortiguard. The internet works only when I put a specific proxy and gateway.
It rejects many sites based on their scripts or for being listed.

I'm the boss of my room and no one cares what I do inside my cabin (I'm not monitored by any IT personnel).
I have decent working desktop with internal graphics card and good internet connection. I can add up external graphics cards if I succeed.
I'm already mining monero in my home. But it would be much more efficient doing that in office. (Though less ethical)

VPN software doesn't work. They block the internet when connected.
