First post. Long time lurker. I need help. I ended up with 10 gridseeds (5 chip) to get my feet wet with altcoins. I've read the quoted post and my numbers are still way off. Clevermining is reporting just under 600KH/s and cgminer is telling me I am hashing at over 4MH/s. Obviously I am doing something wrong...

I am making this post as a summary of issues with some ASIC miners having lower hashrate than expected to link it from the OP:

Short version

If you have ASIC miner and your 24-hour hashrate average reported by CleverMining is lower than expected, then you should try to setup a manual difficulty based on these rules:

- if your miner have 16 chips or more, multiply your miner MHs * 32 and round up to the next diff value. E.g. 3.5 MH/s miner with 16 chips: 3.5 * 32 = 112, round up to 128.
- if your miner have 32 chips or more, multiply your miner MHs * 16 and round up to the next diff value. E.g. 12 MH/s miner with 32 chips: 12 * 16 = 192, round up to 256.
- if your miner have 64 chips or more, multiply your miner MHs * 8 and round up to the next diff value. E.g. 28 MH/s miner with 128 chips: 28 * 8 = 224, round up to 256.

Remember that valid difficulty values are powers of two: 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192, 16384, 32768, 65536.

Please never use difficulty lower than your MHs * 8.

Longer explaination
[removed]

How long has it been since you started mining on the pool, you need to give it some time to "stabilize". It needs time to create a good running average of your workers performance.

Looking at the mining instance it says your best share is 4.71K, so I figure you haven't been mining very long on the pool.
