Which mining software are you using? I am using cgminer with a Falcon getting 27 to 30 mhs and almost never get a reject, usually 100% efficiency,
and my settings look like this: cgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3333 -u xxxxxxx -p n= --chips-count 128 --ltc-clk 328 -S //./com3
and that works great for me, of course you will need to know the number of chips count for your miner and the correct clk and com port...
Hope this helps.

you can pull that many MH off of a falcon? I actually own a few of these (well sold as that anyway)... I use bfgminer though... To be sure there are no markings on this chassis save for the little green chinese sticker... Draw on these pieces is about 500~600 watts depending on clock.... just curious if there is another kind of falcon. I get a steady 20 off of them typically.

This error means that the miner is submitting zero difficulty shares. One cause is, as suggested, that the miner is designed for a different algorithm.

Try checking the "a=" password argument to make sure that you're mining the correct algorithm for this miner. It's also possible that this miner requires a static difficulty using "d=." If you're still having problems, feel free to send an E-Mail to contact@prohashing.com and Chris will be happy to help you troubleshoot.
