Please share the topics, questions, and practical advice that would make Luxor more useful for miners, Bitcoin users, hardware operators, and people still learning the basics.
I ran into this after changing pool settings and thought the machine was the problem. In my case the miner was fine, but the network path was unstable and the shares started coming through only after I fixed DNS and restarted cleanly.
I like this topic because it gets closer to how mining actually works in the real world. A lot of people read generic advice and assume the answer is always hardware or always pool-side, but in practice it can be wallet format, DNS, latency, stale behavior, unstable power, or simple operator error. The more details people share, the more useful this thread becomes for future readers.
I agree with the general advice here, but I would also check the wallet address, worker naming, and temperature at the same time. A lot of people focus only on the connection and miss something obvious.
This is more common than people think, especially with new firmware or rushed setup changes.
For anyone still troubleshooting this, the most useful sequence I found was: confirm the wallet and worker format first, then verify the stratum target, then check miner logs, then look at temperature and uptime, and only after that start changing firmware or network settings. Doing it in a clean order saved me a lot of time because I stopped guessing and started isolating the real problem.
It also helps to separate theory from real-world miner experience, because many problems only show up under actual load and uptime conditions.
Threads like this can become excellent references when members explain the mistake, the symptoms, and the fix in a structured way.
I appreciate topics like this because they help newer miners avoid expensive errors and give experienced users a place to compare methods.
This is a useful topic because it gives miners the kind of practical detail that is often missing from generic advice.
I think discussions like this are strongest when people share exact setup details, what they tested, and what changed the result.
