Hi folks.. I picked up a new GoldShell LT5 Pro but I'm not able to configure it to Prohashing. Can only select one of the available pools dxpool, f2pool, poolin, easy2mine... doesnt allow me to apply prohashing configuraiton.. anyone familiar with the issue? How do I configure to Prohashing.. ? Any help would be appreciated!

Could you describe more about what you mean when you state "available pools?" Where is this list of available pools?

the list i believe is on the web interface after logging into the miner software via a browser. try upgrading to the latest firmware via goldshell website.

If its like the Goldshell miniDoge interface, you should fist unlock the interface. On the miner add screen where you said you see buttons for dxpool and others, do you see a line says URL you can type in, and below username and password.?
Plug in the lines from the configurator

Folks.. thank you so much for your responses. I realised the "stratum+tcp" automatically getting prefixed to the pool address... so I just had to remove it from my input and keep it to only "prohashing.com:333" .. that fixed the issue.

So, I connected my mini doge miner and I see that it is mining LTC sometimes, I assume it gets the doge too? and the switching algorithm accounts for the doge?

Yes. A cool feature of some scrypt algorithm coins is they can be merged mined, meaning shares your miner submits can count towards mining multiple coins at the same time. That's why you can't
technically solo mine Doge here, because you actually merge mine it with Litecoin. Between that and the Proswitching feature, profits are pretty effectively optimized.
