+
+## Wallet
+
+Before starting, you already need to have a wallet configured and
+working. The pool needs to know your wallet address to be able to send
+payments there. See the [Accepting Monero guide]({{ site.baseurl
+}}/get-started/accepting) for more information.
+
+## Profitability
+
+Before mining, you should decide if it is worth it or not for you. You
+have to decide this for yourself, based on your power costs and the
+hardware that you have available. There are many sites, such as
+[CryptoCompare](https://www.cryptocompare.com/mining/calculator/xmr)
+that allow you to enter your miner's speed and power draw, and it will
+show you the profit (or loss) per week/month.
+
+## Downloading The Required Software
+
+The first step is to downloading the miner and P2Pool software onto your computer;
+
+* You can download XMRig from: [XMRig.com](https://xmrig.com/download)
+* You can download P2Pool from: [P2Pool Github Repo](https://github.com/SChernykh/p2pool/releases/latest)
+
+## Configuring P2Pool
+
+1. Open port `37889` in your firewall for better connectivity. (Optional)
+2. Run `./p2pool --host NODE_IP_ADDRESS --wallet WALLET_ADDRESS`.
+
+* It's suggested to run your own node, if that's the case `NODE_IP_ADDRESS` should be `127.0.0.1`.
+* `WALLET_ADDRESS` must be your main address but not subaddress. (Main addresses start with `4`, subaddresses start with `8`)
+
+3. Wait for the synchronization, It should take no more than 5-10 minutes.
+
+See the [official docs](https://github.com/SChernykh/p2pool/blob/master/docs/COMMAND_LINE.MD) for more details about P2Pool.
+
+## Configuring XMRig
+
+Run `./xmrig -o 127.0.0.1:3333` to start mining.
+
+If you see green messages saying that shares have been accepted,
+congratulations, everything is working!
+
+See the [official docs](https://xmrig.com/docs/miner/config) for more details about XMRig.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Anti-virus keeps removing XMRig
+
+Some anti-viruses flag XMRig as malware because it is often deployed
+to infected computers to mine without the owner's consent. As it is
+your computer and you are configuring the miner to mine for you, it is
+safe to add XMRig to your anti-virus whitelist.
+
+### Cannot read/set MSR
+
+On some CPUs, XMRig tries to increase performance by disabling certain
+features like your CPU's instruction prefetcher. These operations
+require root/administrator, so try right clicking xmrig.exe and
+running it as administrator, or running `sudo ./xmrig` on other
+systems.
+
+### Algo not known
+
+Find the line in config.json that says `algo: null` and change it to
+`algo: "rx/0"`. By default, XMRig expects the pool to tell it which
+hashing algorithm to use.
+
+### Huge Pages 0%
+
+#### Allowing large pages on Windows
+
+Taken from [the MSDN](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/database-engine/configure-windows/enable-the-lock-pages-in-memory-option-windows?view=sql-server-ver15):
+
+1. On the Start menu, click Run. In the Open box, type gpedit.msc.
+2. On the Local Group Policy Editor console, expand Computer Configuration, and then expand Windows Settings.
+3. Expand Security Settings, and then expand Local Policies.
+4. Select the User Rights Assignment folder.
+5. The policies will be displayed in the details pane.
+6. In the pane, double-click Lock pages in memory.
+7. In the Local Security Setting – Lock pages in memory dialog box, click Add User or Group.
+8. In the Select Users, Service Accounts, or Groups dialog box, add an account that you will run the miner on
+9. Reboot for change to take effect.
+
+You may also need to launch the miner as administrator.
+
+#### Allowing large pages on Linux
+
+Firstly stop the miner (if it's running), run the following commands to enable
+large pages and then start the miner as root:
+
+	sudo sysctl -w vm.nr_hugepages=1168
+	sudo ./xmrig
+
+You may have to increase 1168 depending on how many NUMA nodes your
+CPU(s) have.
+
+#### Allowing large pages on macOS
+
+Huge pages are not supported on macOS.
+
+### Balance Not Increasing
+
+P2Pool uses <abbr title="Pay Per Last N Shares">PPLNS</abbr> system,
+which means that you only get paid when a miner on the pool finds a
+block. If the pool you are mining on is small, this can take a few
+days to weeks.
+
+Additionally, any blocks found must mature before they can be paid
+out. This takes 60 blocks (approx. 2 hours).
+
+## Getting Help
+
+An active Monero mining community on Reddit is
+[/r/MoneroSupport](https://www.reddit.com/r/MoneroSupport/). You can
+also join [#monero-pools on
+Libera](https://web.libera.chat/?channel=#monero-pools) or Matrix (#monero-pools:monero.social).
+
+## Going Futher
+
+* [Consider using Tor to connect to the pool](https://xmrig.com/docs/miner/tor). This hides mining
+  activity from your ISP, and prevents the pool from knowing who you are.
