I have several computers at home. I can join all of them through a xmr proxy to be seen as a user but I have been told that to mine I need to join a pool. I know the advantages of mining through a pool but I want to try solo mining.

Can some computers going through a xmr proxy (seen as just one user) solo mine XMR without a pool?

Thanks in advance.

A proxy doesn't mine. You also don't need a pool to mine. A pool proxy needs a pool.

If you want to solo mine with a collection of your own computers, you have a couple of options. You could set up your own private pool or use XMRig on each computer and connect them directly to your own Monero daemon. Both of these options effectively have you solo mining with a bunch of your own computers.

when I went to the latest mining at xmr rig, it had me set up a mining wallet and started mining. I was trying to join a pool, I went online at xmrpool.org and after I chose a pool to join, I didn't see where to actually input my information. I think that the program just started going through the process alone.
