QUESTION The Maxpool is registered, but the mining command don't work?

ANSWER

First, you need to ensure that you have registered with a Maxpool:

You can register on the Maxpool website: [https://maxpool.org/auth/register](https://maxpool.org/auth/register)

Note: After registration, If you are not use the abelminingscript.sh script for mining, Please remember the username and password in the user panel. The mining commands for Maxpool's two mining pools are:

```shell
./abelminer -P stratums://<username>:<password>@emily-service.abelian.info:27778
./abelminer -P stratums://<username>:<password>@fiona-service.abelian.info:27778

If everything looks good but you still get a "failed" login error, Please complete registration on the Maxpool website and read the 'Quickstart Guide' section.

QUESTION Unable to login a certain mining pool in the Maxpool dashboard?

ANSWER

Could try changing the DNS settings to 8.8.8.8 or 1.1.1.1, and clear the browser and system DNS cache.

This will help verify if the DNS change has taken effect and what IP address the user's device is using.

Open the "Terminal" application in Windows, and enter the following command to clear the DNS cache:

ipconfig /flushdns

If user using macOS or Linux, Please use the curl command to check if the connection is normal. Example: Test access "Fiona" pool. Remember to replace USERNAME and PASSWORD with your actual credentials.

curl --location 'https://pool-fiona.abelian.info/v1/pool/signin' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
    "username":"USERNAME",
    "password":"PASSWORD"
}'

QUESTION Unable to log in to the original Abelian Foundation pool (pool.abelian.info)?

ANSWER

The original Abelian Foundation mining pool (pool.abelian.info) has currently stopped providing services, but the website is still accessible, and the URL has changed to: https://legacy.maxpool.org/home. It is strongly recommended to migrate to the Maxpool mining pool!!!
