it would be pretty fantastic if I could access my funds....i feel like every wallet update is playing russian roulette

I added a chain server and have been having good luck with that.

I am in the processes of setting up a dedicated chain server. Will post the IP address shortly.

added it....and....surprise....still doesn't work

it would be a surprise if it worked  :P

Try to add this node if you have problem:

network_add_node "188.138.107.159:1776" add

Since this is a fork with some protections against the client connecting to an old fork we probably need to wait for the seed nodes to update as well.

My connection also died with about 1 and a half days left to sync.....groan

We need 0.4.9-a

Mine is broken again too.

After giving it a seed node it started re-syncing. Number of connections quickly went up to 8 and stayed there. When it hit about 2 days to go it suddenly went back to "Not connected".

After reinstalling it for the 11th time...it looks like its actually syncing now....let's see if it continues

It's an issue with the wallet...bugs galore

I am running three nodes with over 250 connections in total .. but all of the nodes reached their 'max_connection' ..

It doesn't seem to be an issue with seed node slots.
Mine has 150 connections out of 400.
Just the client cannot sync on some blocks. Fresh resync doesn't work. You need to sync 4.8 and then reindex data-dir.

My seed nodes fill up within minutes.  Its a good thing they crash every once in a while to give new people a change to connect.  The connections issues I have is with my delegate with inbound connections turned off.  I get maybe 1 or 2 connections but never get more, and then I lose those and don't reconnect.

Adding nodes worked for me this time. I guess I was too late for the one posted earlier.

Yeah.  The seed nodes fill up fast.

Mine still has slots though... It must be something else.

Yeah.  I have been having a harder time getting connected and syncing since 4.8  I've been having to run my delegate on my laptop, to prevent crashes or disconnections from making me miss blocks.
