If I have 10 of the same miners with all the same settings, how come sometimes not all of them can connect to your pool? Sometimes 8 can connect, sometimes 6, sometimes 9, and etc. But I don't see a stable 10 miners connected to your pool constantly and for the ones that don't connect, it goes to my back up pools? Does it have to do with too many connections coming from my IP address? Or some kind of spam protection you have?

It's not the miners issue, because if I set hashrefinery.com as my main pool, all 10 miners connect to the pool successfully and constantly. Same success happens with miningpoolhub. It just seems like an issue with zpool. I would like to set you as a primary pool but the random miners not connecting at all is bothering me.

Any help would be appreciated.

I'm really not sure why it would have any problems. There are no limits on stratum, unless I explicitly ban your wallet address, then all your miners get blocked on the firewall. I've have weirdness on my baikals as well, not seeing some of the algo's ports as alive... but, I can telnet to them just fine from the actual miner so I'm really miffed why this happens. I've not setup any automatic limiting that would interfere like this...

Yea, that's why I'm clueless too with the random connections. Just stuck on what else to do because hashrefinery.com and miningpoolhub don't have these issues with my Baikals. If I set all 10 miners to hashrefinery.com, they all connect, same with miningpoolhub. But when I set all 10 to zpool as primary pool, not all 10 connect and some fallback to backup pools, and it's always not the same miner's that are falling back to backup pools too.

For example, if I power down all 10 miners, and power them all back up, sometimes different miners can connect to zpool and some doesn't. So it's truely is random with them.

Would love to support zpool and set as a main pool. But it's hard to keep track of my miners when some are failing to connect and going to my backup pools.

@crackfoo After further testing, I came to the conclusion that it's something on your end or new hosting server doing something weird. I have tried 3 different yiimp based pools with all the same settings for multiple days, and all of my miners connect successfully to them constantly with no miner dropping out randomly. It's only when I connect to your pool that some miners drop out randomly and going to a backup pool.

I am still using your pool, but this random dropping out of your pool is a nuisance. I have narrowed it down to your pool, since it's not the miner's fault or else it would of experience the same issue on the 3 other yiimp based pools, but it doesn't.

Since you also have a Baikal miner, hopefully you will be able to figure something out because you can also test it with another yiimp pool to see yourself that it won't randomly disconnect.

P.S. I remember in the past, before your recent server changes/upgrade/overhaul, it never had this issue. Hope that info helps somehow.
