It seems that my DigiByte wallet doesn't connect to DigiByte network and thus doesn't download the blockchain :S What could be the problem?
Could someone help me please? I don't have any problems with other wallets but for some reason this one doesn't connect :O It's permitted to go trough firewall so that shouldn't be the problem.
Have you tried to add nodes?
addnode=74.208.230.160
addnode=31.220.25.91
addnode=184.155.218.183
addnode=24.119.23.61
addnode=70.196.193.231
addnode=198.98.118.241
addnode=142.4.204.115
addnode=23.90.191.58
If those don't help, you could also try adding:
addnode=84.27.153.252
I'll see about allowing more than 125 connections to enable supernode mode.
Edit: currently allowing 500 connections, though if my connection becomes too slow I'll throttle back to something sustainable.
Allowing a maximum of eight connections per IPv4 /24 subnet and 2 connections per IPv4 address to spread my availability over the network.
Where am I supposed to add these things...?
Also, I was afk for a while and when I came back I noticed that it had downloaded about half of the blockchain, but now it doesn't have a connection anymore :S
There should be a file called digibyte.conf (or you can create it) with the addnode= lines in there. (See the
first post of this thread for additional stuff to put in the config file.)
The location of that file varies, depending on your operating system. On Linux it's ~/.digibyte/digibyte.conf and on Windows it's in %APPDATA%/local/Roaming/ off the top of my head (someone correct me if I'm wrong)
As for the network connectivity, most people are behind a firewall or NAT, thus they severely limit the outgoing connections on the wallet. This means that there are only a few nodes that connect all those other nodes together. Once a node has reached it's limit of connections, they stop accepting new users until an existing user disconnects. In some cases there are way more users than 'slots' available on the nodes, which leads to some users not being able to find any available nodes to connect to.
