This thread is meant to help users in KanoPool evaluate mining pools more carefully. Please share the most useful trust signals, warning signs, and the mistakes miners make when choosing where to hash.
This is more common than people think, especially with new firmware or rushed setup changes.
This kind of thread is useful because the same symptom can come from different causes. The best replies are the ones that show the exact setup, the tests performed, and what finally changed the result.
What helped me most was writing down the exact symptoms before changing anything. Once I compared the dashboard, local logs, and power behavior together, the real cause became much easier to spot.
This is a strong SEO-style topic because it matches the real questions miners keep asking again and again.
This is exactly the kind of question many new miners search for before they commit money or hardware.
I think the most helpful answers here are the ones that explain what to check first, not just the final fix.
A practical comparison with real setup details would make this thread much more useful for future readers.
It helps a lot when people include what symptoms they saw, what they tested, and what actually changed the result.
