This error continues to pop up no matter what I do. I have read the FAQ here (https://github.com/trexminer/T-Rex/wiki/FAQ#what-is-the-instance-wasnt-validated-error) but I do not know what firewall settings to change to allow for validation.

When I run curl -k https://srv1.trex-miner.com in cmd, I get a timeout error there as well.

I currently have the miner automatically restarting when validation fails but this is hurting performance overall.

I suggest using a VPN or SOCKS proxy as well as DNS-over-HTTPS. T-Rex supports SOCKS natively for those who have ISP's which place bans on certain things like mining. 🙂

--proxy                    IP:port for connection via SOCKS5 proxy server.
                              Domain names are resolved through the proxy too.
--dns-https-server         IP:port for DNS server working via DNS-over-HTTPS.
