Hey there,

I've been using a Raspberry Pi 3 B+ to run cgminer for a few months now, and I've noticed lately more and more that I'm having issues with my wifi continually disconnecting! This was an issue early on, however I resolved it by just pinging addresses continually and this seemed to keep to wifi active for a couple of months. This doesn't seem to be working now.

I've tried out most of the troubleshooting ideas posted online, however none of them seem to be working for me.

Anyone here had the same issue on there Pi 3 B+ and resolved it?

Cheers.

Not having any problems from mine. I've left my 3 b+ up as a pi-hole server and running wireless. If your wireless continues dropping on your unit I'd suggest going wired or reaching out to Raspberry support for ideas on it. Also make sure your OS is current (sudo apt-get update followed by sudo apt-get upgrade -y).

Are you running this in console mode (Stretch) or are you using the desktop model (Noobs etc)? If console mode only I have read many people running into issues on the 3 b+ going that route. However switching to the desktop model it worked without issue. I have all of my pi's set to run off Noobs booting to a desktop. I changed the login in config so that user Pi doesn't boot fully in, instead it'll boot up to a login screen. And from there I can remote into this Pi (or any of my others) from any windows machine to setup my miners etc. I've found this to be the most stable, issue free for me. I have instructions on this page (59) on how to setup xrdp so that you can remote into the machine from windows.
