Well, I finally get my Solo Mining setup working. I put a 120mm fan in front of the Compact F and now its very cool (about 42°C). Didn't thought that would affect cooling that much. Without cooling at 200Mhz it's to hot to even touch the heatsink. Now it's running at 400Mhz. Maybe I go a little bit higher the next days.

But now I've found another problem with my setup. the latency to kanopool is quite high. As I'm from Germany, I use the server in the Netherlands. So I started some ping tests:

Code:

maik@ubuntuserver:~$ ./stratum-ping us-east.stratum.slushpool.com:3333
...
avg 109.028696ms

maik@ubuntuserver:~$ ./stratum-ping sha256.eu.nicehash.com:3334
...
avg 25.584321ms

maik@ubuntuserver:~$ ./stratum-ping stratum.antpool.com:3333
...
avg 20.263655ms

maik@ubuntuserver:~$ ./stratum-ping solo.ckpool.org:3333
...
avg 97.443751ms

maik@ubuntuserver:~$ ./stratum-ping nl.kano.is:3333
...
avg 246.267585ms

Maybe it would be better to mine with my own bitcoin node? But my node is bitcoin core 22.0 wich doesn't work with cgminer Undecided

Which bitcoin node version uses kanopool?

Um, you must be doing something terribly wrong with your internet or there's something wrong with the program you are using to test.
If you are using a VPN or Tor or other similar delay on your data, then that's a really bad idea and the cause of your terrible latency,
and on top of that, your ping values are meaningless since they will change regularly when using such connections.
If this is the case, then yes please don't mine on KanoPool with those added delays.

From the German (frankfurt) node to the Netherlands (amsterdam) node in only a 7ms ping.
Again, if you are getting a 246ms average ping, then you are doing something terribly wrong with your internet.

I tested again with normal ping in cmdline and it shows avg. 12ms to kano.is. with the stratum ping tool it shows 140ms. so there is something wrong with this tool obviously.
I have a FTTH connection and using it without a VPN or Tor so this should be good. cgminer is running in a ubuntu VM on my home server.
