The bitcoin mining since the beginning has attracted many geeks due to the simplicity of the cryptocurrency producing. In fact a minimal cost, (at least it was in early days of the BTC and other cryptocoins) it is possible to earn a real money just by running a single program. This, of course, cannot fail to excite the minds. However, unfortunately, not everything lasts forever. Now its production is so complicated, that it requires certain conditions.

First, it is almost impossible now to mine at least one bitcoin with an ordinary home video card. You need either join to the pools, buy space on the cloud service or buy your own equipment. Here, in principle, everyone chooses something for himself what more like it. In case of the cloud mining you do not actually run anything on your equipment – all done in the cloud. You just pay rent – in fact, invest and get a percentage.

If you are involved in a pool or buy your own ASICs for a solo-work, it already requires a bit more money. However, the first question that often beginners have is what should be the Internet speed for a mining?

On one device an average traffic is around 10 KB/s, so a simple LAN connection will suffice. In other words, any such a connection suitable, because the speed here doesn’t have strong values. The main thing is to make the signal stable, and its flow is not interrupted. Therefore, even a very fast Internet, but is constantly interrupted due to technical problems or congestion on the network will be much worse than a very slow but stable access.

If your channel is not particularly stable and can be interrupted suddenly for no reasons, we recommend taking the cheapest rate and a 3G modem from mobile operators as a solution. Connect the modem to a miner, run it and it is ready. Everything is simple as ABC.

Thus, the Internet speed is almost irrelevant for the mining. The main thing is a stable connection with the World Wide Web for long work of a program. If the network is constantly interrupted, you have to constantly be near the equipment and restart a program. To avoid this, choose a good, reliable provider if you plan to mine the cryptocurrency.
