Hello all! Just started mining with AwesomeMiner with MiningPoolHub. It appears that AwseomeMiner isn't switching algos based on my settings. In Options-Profit Switching, I have it set to 45 minutes and my worker is listed correctly (username.worker name) but I've noticed where it will mine the same coin for hours.

In MPH, I have my Worker Login, Worker Password and Job set to 'Account's default job'.

Am I missing something?


Even If I manually stop the miner and restart it, It will go back mining the on the same algo (even if a different one is listed as top one to mine on MiningPoolHub).
To get insight why the profit switcher selects a specific algorithm, right click on the miner and select View Details and go to the Profit switching tab. Please note that these hashrates and profit estimates are based on what is defined in the Profit profile. They may not match the actual hashrate and profit. If they are not matching, please use the Benchmark feature or manually edit the profit profile to ensure they match, otherwise the profit switcher may select a less profitable pool.


Thank you for your response. I've seen the same behavior even after running a precise benchmark when using 'all combined', but I will try it again. Under profit switching, I have my interval set to 60 with the profit switch threshold set to 15%. Im not even sure if this is a good setting or not. What do you (or others) recommend for these settings? Also, when benchmarking, Algos like Cryptonight or Quark don't seem to give me benchmarked results after running the test. (5 GTX 1070 Ti, GPU: all combined and precise benchmark).


Thanks again for your time and assistance.
