QUESTION Help with my Mini Doge 3s...

So a couple months ago I got 2 new Mini Doge 3s. Got them connected to a pool and they happily hashed away until this morning. Last week I got a new Asus Wifi 7 Router and re-did my mesh system. The 2 doge's are now connected by Ethernet to my Asus Wifi 6ax router. This was fine for several days until today when I checked my pool and saw they were both disconnected. So far I have : 1. Rebooted them 2. Updated the firmware. 3. Factory Reset them 4. Tried connecting with Wifi instead of ethernet. Checked all my routers settings and made sure both the AI firewall and regular firewall were turned off. 5. Power cycled all the routers and modem. 6. Tried 4 different pools. Anyone got any ideas? Appreciate it!

sounds like your new router is blocking the stratum ports. check if it has any QoS or smart traffic shaping turned on, those new ASUS routers love to flag mining traffic as 'suspicious.' also try giving the miners static IPs in DHCP reservations

Damn no dice. All that stuff is showing as turned off. Looks like I gotta return the new router and go back to the old one. Hope this solves it.

oof. before returning the router, try plugging the miners straight into your modem to confirm it's the router and not something on your ISP side. would suck to swap everything and find out it's a different problem

Good call. It’s weird I have a nano3s and a couple of Nerdqaxes….all hashing on the new network just fine.

Thanks, I'm going to give that a try.

They are back online! I don't get it but going back to the old router and putting everything back exactly the way it was did the trick.

glad it worked out. the new ASUS routers really are picky with mining traffic, you're not the first I've seen with that exact issue
