This report is also at https://www.reddit.com/r/EtherMining/comments/6xkau1/simplemining_os_with_5_or_6_gtx_1070s_makes/" rel="nofollow - https://www.reddit.com/r/EtherMining/comments/6xkau1/simplemining_os_with_5_or_6_gtx_1070s_makes/ Along with other people who are experiencing the same problems. Symptom: mining with this board causes network problems with wifi access points Full report: My setup, Ubuntu 16.04, ASROCK H110 Pro BTC+, Draytek Vigor 2860ac VDSL router to internet, Draytek AP-902 access point. 8 GPUs, 4 GTX 1070, 4 GTX 1080. 3 other rigs connected to the AP. Mining Zcash with EWBF to flypool. First try, the H110 rig connected to the AP-902. Kills the AP connection to the Vigor router. Though I can access the AP, and the other rigs from the H110 rig perfectly OK while it's attempting to mine. Also tried the DSTM miner, same result. Second try. Using a newly purchased Realtek USB wifi on a different channel to the one between the AP-902 and the Vigor 2860. Kills the AP to Vigor as soon at it starts mining. WTF!!! Third try. Configure a completely separate VLAN and SSID for the H110 to use, configured so each connection is isolated so it should not be able to affect the AP. Kills the AP <-> Vigor connection as soon as it starts mining. WTF!!! Even more bizarre is that other devices on wifi on the same channel as the AP<->Vigor, e.g an IPad are not affected. Last try. Turn off mining on the other 3 rigs. The AP stills dies as soon as I start mining on the H110. Conclusion. The ASROCK H110 is not fit for the purpose advertised. |

Seems very similar to issues that I have had as well. I am running Claymore Miner on Ubuntu 16 and anything attached to the same switch as the affected machine no longer has network access. I have detailed the issue in more detail here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/994466/ubuntu-server-flooding-network-with-mpcp-opcode-pause-packets" rel="nofollow - https://askubuntu.com/questions/994466/ubuntu-server-flooding-network-with-mpcp-opcode-pause-packets I have had 4 of these motherboards and this issue has affected all of them.

Same problem and situation . I have 3 of these rigs, 2 are completed builds and one is still in progress. ALL SMOS, DSTM 5.7, Zcash Flypool 2 Molex - each on own rail. Same PSU which powers the Mainboard. 1 SATA own rail same PSU as described in their guide. Rig1. Online Dec 2017 , 12 X EVGA 1060 SC, 1000 EVGA ; 750 EVGA; 4 GB Micron Ram, Celeron Rig2. Online January 20 1x 1080ti, 3x 1070TI, 2x EVGA 1060 OC, 6x EVGA 1050TI, 1300 EVGA, 850 EVGA 4GB Micron Ram , Celeron Rig3. 3x 1080 , 2x 1060 (in progress) , 1000 EVGA, 1000 EVGA, 4GB , Celeron Cat 6 ethernet run to all, 1 Gigabit Verizon FIOS, Rig1 - the original is the only one that (seems) to crash. But when it does, it floods the network and the entrire house goes offline. I have also tried VLANs and that doesnt work. The Thing is Rig 2 has never crashed. Not once. Rig 3 is a build in progress. no helpful data. I wish i could add more data, but i can say there has to be a fix for this. I am thinking about trying HiveOS if only on the main offender.
I cannot help but believe power is an issue here. I have changed all the risers on Rig1. perhaps relevant- i have noticed that if i put one of the rigs on a different coin / pool the crash does not occur (ran without crash for a month) |

" rel="nofollow - Grab WireShark or it's equivalent and tell us what "data' is flooding the network. Otherwise you're just guessing. Nicely I say that, 'k? |

" rel="nofollow - Thanks for the tip, i have wireshark installed and i did a quick test. 4 MB for 30 seconds of network traffic, is that even possible on a home network with ~40 nodes? i will need to set this up to save the logs to a spare 4TB drive i am not using. it will take me some time to read the guide and learn wireshark. its an awesome tool but packet sniffing is not my speciality.

" rel="nofollow - After some digging I must say I'm leaning towards this being possibly driver related or network infrastructure "faulty'. MPCP - Multiple Point Control Protocol The below page describes to a tee what is affecting ALL the Users here in this thread https://github.com/nwholloway/mpcp . Everyone here, are the firmware in you network switches/routers/AP's updated? Maybe the lot of you can post the NIC driver revision here to compare also. .... wardog |

Save your time. I got a handle on what's happening in my post above. I feel secure in saying you can uninstall WireShark and not worry using it. |
