any ideas on my problem? the -p was a typeo on my side, when you posted first.... i always put a -p x since none of the pools require a password..... again i have tried 4 pools no connection.
also just for testing purposes I will set it to 150 and not push it to 200, but it is on a dedicated POWERED 2.0 USB strip
