this is going to sound like a total noob question, but here goes:

does the internet connection speed have anything to do with my accepted hashrate for mdidlecoin? I have the rigs connected wirelessly through a wireless range extender, that is wirelessly connected to my actual modem/router. I have had no issues with this setup on other mining pools, with my hashrates being reported through the pools accurately (meaning very similar to what my cgminer client reports).

I've noticed that the hashrates reported on middlecoin though are roughly 20% lower than what I expect them to be. My internet is cable internet, but is the slowest speed option available through my provider. If connection speed is an issue, I will upgrade the internet speed, as I would make up that extra monthly cost in about 1 day of mining. If the internet speed is not a factor though, then I will forego it.

Thanks Kiss

Your cable modem speed should be fine but the multiple wifi hops could have some effect.
Bandwidth isn't much of an issue with mining through stratum but latency can manifest in your accept/reject ratio. Multiple hops across wifi bridging can introduce latency. But even then, it shouldn't be all that bad. Also it will depend on which coin we're mining at the time. Faster coins will get you more rejects if you're connection is laggy.
