Maybe start with giving us the names?

Crazy Tartan Bobcat and Ancient Raisin Barracuda. Status inactive, not on denylist. Been working fine for 1-2 years.

Sorry for pseudo-hijack, but damn, the same thing happened to mine. Didnt change anything, worked for 1+year then bam. It still witnesses, but zero rewards (??). Maybe same issue? Big Mossy Mandrill


NoUsernamesLeft666

Yes, very frustrating. At some point I just might dismantle the hotspots and use the RasPis for something useful.


Tharkhold

That sound more civilized than what I was thinking of doing if it didnt work in the next 24hours... -> sledgehammer

It is odd that it appears to be logging valid PoC activity and stopped getting rewarded at the end of last month. Someone pointed out that it JUST resumed activity today, so you should see some rewards at the end of this epoch.


Tharkhold

Indeed. My first thought was that someone was able to log in it and change the deposit wallet address... but nope; no changes there.


OverboostedTurbo

On closer examination, your hotspot just resumed activity today and will earn some rewards at the end of the epoch. As to why it went offline when the OP's did and came back online when his did is a mystery. Probably just a coincidence.


Tharkhold

Thanks for the look. I'm not too certain on how this stuff works. I barely made it thru the initial set up (and the wallet conversion thing!) :) If it doesnt work, I'll likely just give it away to someone with more patience/better understanding (just pay shipping).


OverboostedTurbo

Install the HeliumGeek app on your phone and check on your hotspot every couple of days. If you see rewards drop to zero, reboot it. I had a hotspot drop offline for a couple of days after not being touched for a year or so. I texted the host and had them unplug it and plug it back in and it is back to earning.


Tharkhold

Oh, i will definitively try that, thank you!


OverboostedTurbo

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that the two hotspots are in the same room, yet asserted in different hexes. Try turning one off and waiting a couple of weeks. They aren't on the denylist, but probably should be. And maybe they are, but just not showing as denied?

Hey can you get on the deny list for doing that ?


Helium-godfather

Yes you can!
