Wireless connection is generally a bad idea for mining rigs. You need fast responses to reduce stale shares. Wireless can give you spiking latencies and could be the cause of why your rig is sometimes displayed as OFF.

I will change "Stability" to "Connection stability", which this actually refers to.

I've never had an issue with it, but I'm adding 8GB more ram to the rig in a few days so I think it will be more stable with regard to your site. Connection wise it's 100% stable. I just have everything else clocked down so low that the added traffic from your site may have pushed the wireless too far on the machine itself.

You could have 2 ratings. Something like a ratio of declared speed to actual speed, since you seem to be monitoring both. And having a maintenance button that stopped monitoring so doing maintenance doesn't count towards our numbers would be nice too.

I've been doing tests, and I think the only way I'm going to be able to be stable on your site is to run a long ass cable out to where my rig is. I'll do that tomorrow. I believe I have one long enough, otherwise I'll have to make one. I should be stable by tomorrow... is there a way to reset my connection status number when I make the change tomorrow so I can start fresh again?

I never have any issues mining, just with the status on your site. Pings to the rig from my computer are 20ms and under, with a couple 400's here and there, and pings to google.com from the rig itself return 5 - 10ms, with a few random 500's, no drops. But I'll wire it in, that should fix all connection issues. It's possible Linux just doesn't work well over wireless, because no other device in the whole house, mobile, tablet, or desktop, ever have issues downloading, streaming, or online gaming. I even stream movies from my computer, over wifi, to my xbox, and it never skips once.

I blame Linux.
