Step-by-step Guide on Connect Antminer L3+ / L3++ on LitecoinPool.org
Step 1: Create an Account on LitecoinPool.org
Making an account on LitecoinPool.org is the first step in the mining process for Litecoin. Head over to the LitecoinPool.org website and click on the “Register” button on the top right corner. Your email address, the creation of a username, and a password must be provided. Once you have filled in the required details, click on “Create Account.”
Step 2: Create a Worker
Once you have created your account, you need to create a worker. A worker is a unique identifier for your mining rig, which allows you to track its performance on the pool. To create a worker, go to the “Dashboard” tab and click on “Add a New Worker”. Give your worker a name and a password, and click “Add”.
Step 3: Configure Your Antminer L3+ / L3++
You must set up your Antminer L3+ / L3++ to connect to LitecoinPool.org after creating an account and a worker. You need to access the miner’s web interface to do this. 192.168.1.1 is the Antminer L3+ / L3++’s standard IP address. You can access the Antminer L3+ / L3++’s web interface by typing this IP address into your web browser.
Connect your miners to the server(s) closest to you (most miners allow you to specify more than one URL for failover):
stratum+tcp://litecoinpool.org:3333 | (Europe) |
stratum+tcp://us.litecoinpool.org:3333 | (US East Coast) |
stratum+tcp://us2.litecoinpool.org:3333 | (US West Coast) |
The US West Coast address should be chosen over the East Asian address when connecting.
You can also access Stratum on port 8080 if your computer is protected by a firewall.
Mind that some software (notably some versions of the web interface of Antminers) requires you to omit the protocol prefix (stratum+tcp://) when entering URLs.
The default worker credentials are:
Username: | your_username.1 |
Password: | 1 |
On your account page, you can create additional employees with any names and passwords you like. Case affects both the username and the password. Never use your account password for any of your workers.
Once you are on the web interface, navigate to the “Miner Configuration” tab. Here, you will need to enter the following details:
- Pool URL: stratum+tcp://litecoinpool.org:3333
- Worker: yourusername.workername
- Password: the password you set for your worker
After you have entered the details, click on “Save & Apply.”
