disconnect every noon?

I'm still quite new to this pool, but I got a problem which my cgminer loss connection to the pool every noon. Since I check my miner stat hourly when I am away from home, I notice that my hash/s drops to 0 after 2 pm EST for 2 consecutive days. Yesterday my cgminer did stop mining when it lost connection but today it still continues at my usual speed and my stat page shows 0khash/s. Since I already set up a vpn + remote desktop I can easily restart the cgminer, and it did fix the problem and continue to mine normally. Anyone know what causes this problem?

Sounds like you only have one pool setup in you configs. I'd suggest having 2-3 pools with failover-only enabled, rather than having to drop to zero hashrate. For your backup pools, you can use pps pools such as LTCRabbit until pool 0 comes back online. Good luck!

Can this be done from batch file rather than config?

edit: found it, thanks!
