my weekly 168hr of mining payout has gone from .17 ETH to .11 ETH over the last month. Is the mining difficulty causing this? Anything we can do to bring it back up?

It's purely based on the difficulty. In the last month the difficulty has sky rocketed. Only way to make up for it is to add more GPU's to mining as the difficulty isn't going to go down at this point. I went from 32 GPU's to 40 GPU's and that got me back to where I started a month ago. Good luck!
