The connection issue still persist.
if you reboot router with dynamid ip
the miner cant connect to ethermine.org pool
you need to manual close and relaunch the program to connect
70-80% of rigs have this problem occur
while some can connect after router reboot


i'm agree... The connection issue still persist.

I did observe this problem when my dynamic IP changed by the ISP. However in my case Phoenix 2.8c auto-recovered from the situation on its own.
It attempted to connect to the main pool several times waiting 20 sec in between and then after 3 or so failed attempts successfully connected to the next pool from my epools.txt.

Possible workaround: Add second (or more) pool(s) to the epools.txt list. You can add the same pool there twice.
Example of epools.txt:
# Ethermine.org
# Main pool listed in the config.txt file: POOL: eu1.ethermine.org:4444,   WALLET: %WALLET%.%WORKER%, PSW: x, WORKER: , ESM: 0, ALLPOOLS: 0
POOL: us1.ethermine.org:4444,   WALLET: %WALLET%.%WORKER%, PSW: x, WORKER: , ESM: 0, ALLPOOLS: 0
POOL: us2.ethermine.org:4444,   WALLET: %WALLET%.%WORKER%, PSW: x, WORKER: , ESM: 0, ALLPOOLS: 0
POOL: asia1.ethermine.org:4444, WALLET: %WALLET%.%WORKER%, PSW: x, WORKER: , ESM: 0, ALLPOOLS: 0
POOL: asia2.ethermine.org:4444, WALLET: %WALLET%.%WORKER%, PSW: x, WORKER: , ESM: 0, ALLPOOLS: 0

might works but other address will have different geo location which has higher ping time thus higher stale share...

upgraded from 2.8c
stale share of 900MH/s mining rigs down from 3-4% to 1% now
share from 7XX to 8XX now

reconnect problem.
while phoenix work best and have lower stale shares
only the problem is the connection problem.
first if miner cant connect the pool at the first time, it will not connect forever unless you close the miner and double click a new miner again
second sometime if lose connection to the pool while mining like say after a few hour, it will also not connect forever unless you close the miner and double click a new miner again
you can duplicate this problem by reboot modem or router
please resolve this
....
    From the log it seems that there is really no connection and the miner is trying all pools one by one. However there were some substantial changes in the networking code of 2.7c because of the new Solo/GetWork mining support, so we will double check this.

maybe you can set the watchdog to restart miner if the miner can't connect to the pool after 5 minutes, thats easiest fix
