Ok, so I have my 841 set up and it's been working for the last few days.

A couple observations:

I work in a business where I record audio. I was thinking that I would just turn off the miner when I needed to record, however that won't be the case. Even with the settings that philipma1957 posted, that fan is so loud that I can't work in the same room while it's on. It's a one room office hahah. So, I'll just be mining when I'm not there. That will certainly impact my ranking.

Hi all!!
So for someone like me (small miners) never in the top 100 or even 200, just how long (if ever) would I have to wait for a payment?
Im just wondering if it would be like 4-5 months or are we talking years here?
Thanks in advance.
At the current hashrate, 4-5 years.

I'm currently ranked 480. I know there is ramp-up time and that the 841 has a decent hash rate. However, I only have one unit, and that one unit will be only running an average of about 14 hrs/day. It'll probably be years for me too before I see anything. I guess that's just the nature of the beast. I'll watch the ranking and see if this will be worth my while. I'm probably going to be moving from this office in 4-5 years. Oy.

I would mine here 6 days a week------ pool.ckpool.org

I would mine here 1 day a week------ solo.ckpool.org

Re: your recommended schedule: These are the two pools that I was looking at. I was wondering if there was a way to utilize both, and it's like you read me mind! I'll definitely do the 6/1 split as my original point of departure. Thanks again. I really appreciate it.
This probably involves scheduling using crontab to relaunch cgminer after changing its config, unless the Avalons expose such feature in their UI.
I'm curious how you're doing your scheduling Philipma1957. Are you using crontab or are there other solutions? Looking into it, I think I can pull off crontab but it's a little out of my experience. That said, I am doing this mad project to learn a thing or two...

I have enough gear scattered about that I dont have to shift.

When I had just one miner I would simply make a change on the miners GUI on Sunday morning.
