Miners not connecting to the pool?

One of my D3s was running low hash rate so I rebooted and since then my miners won't connect to the pool. Are there any issues at the moment. This has been a problem for the past 4 hrs and I have rebooted several times but the mners are still not connecting? Do you have any suggestions? Thanks

Be patient and wait.
There is a worker limit in place last I checked, so you have to wait patiently for a queue to get in and mine on the pool.

Now that they have announced the expansion to the pool, hopefully they can increases the worker limits and eventually re-open the registrations to new peoples as well.

Copy the settings from the first miner to the second miner is all that needs to be done.

If no worker name is given with the password n=worker or a duplicated name used, the duplicated machine will toss out a unique worker
ID like 4434-23232-32335634-8567845. It will say 1 error...the workers name is already in use, but will give you hashing and credit for shares anyways.

if you want to get rid of the worker name error, make sure each miner has n=workername in the password.
Make Miner1 n=worker1, have miner2 password n=miner2, have miner3 password n=miner3....so on and so on.

Same issue with me, I have an older miner and have been able to connect to other pools without any issue.

But for some reason my account shows no live miners. I swear I have everything as it's supposed to be.

Is there any trouble shooting guides or information to get my miner in the pool and active?

I am asking same thing.

Yestrday, I connect 3x D3 to prohashing pool, and till now I have no data to earn anything.
All I can see is this:

I did enter all data in setup, and also D3 is configured OK, with: pool (prohashing.com:3333) and username & password.

Any clue? Admins? @chris sokolowski

you either do not have a=x11 in password field or it needs d=256 added

Probably not, yes. Since in "password" field I did insert my password only.

Can you write, what I should write in password field? With example, please.
Thanks a lot!
