Hey folks.  

im trying to switch from nanopool to slushpool.

Nothing is working with slushpool.  

error im getting:
connected to zec.slushpool.com:4444 failed

I am thinking it is slushpool issue, but want to touch a feather here in case i missed something.

I have tried the following:

miner --server zec.slushpool.com --user USERNAME.workername1 --pass z --port 4444

miner --server zec.slushpool.com --user WALLET.workername1 --pass z --port 4444

miner --server us.zec.slushpool.com --user USERNAME.workername1 --pass z --port 4444

miner --server eu.zec.slushpool.com --user WALLET.workername1 --pass z --port 4444

miner --server us1.zec.slushpool.com --user USERNAME.workername1 --pass z --port 4444

miner --server eu1.zec.slushpool.com --user WALLET.workername1 --pass z --port 4444

this is the only help they offer:
