Hello,
i am using the braiins pool stratum+tcp://eu.stratum.braiins.com:3333 with my futurebit btc miner.
after some times, all my hashrate is forwarded to this pool : stratum+tcp://btc.viabtc.com:3333 username : portforwarded.futurebit
My miner is not corrupted and i see any changes in my configuration files. it's probably a men in the middle redirecting my url.
Any help please.

How long has it been happening and how long have you been mining with this miner without a problem?

Which miner are you using? The full package Apollo or the Standard Apollo?

Are you using a VPN?

I am using my full package Apollo since August without any problem, and i am facing this strange behaviour since November 11, i am using a NordVpn with my personal laptop, but no advanced configuration to use a VPN for the miner on my side.
This is the reply from the braiins pool support team:

It's hard to say from here. It's possible that perhaps it is defaulting to an old setting.

My advice would be to make sure it has the latest firmware (a fresh install may be a good idea), make sure your local network is secure and change any passwords/log in for the user interface/firmware. You may want to consider using a VPN also.
