My cgminer started falling back to a backup pool and no longer connecting to the Waffle EU server. I see in my firewall logs that it tries to connect to 206.223.224.225:3009. Is that address related to Wafflepool and how so? It shows on whois lookup as a residential cable in Montreal, Canada. If I restart the cgminer it connects to Waffle EU normally but the same thing happens after a while.
While I didn't keep track of which IP my miners were previously connecting to during the 8-9 hour drop I did restart them and things seem to be connecting to the 192.241.211.125 address now (uswest).
Any theories for what might have occurred?
