Hello world, I need your help !

Just reinstalled Win7 64bit.

I downloaded the Dogecoin Core 1.10 ( dogecoin-1.10.0-win64-setup-unsigned.exe) and I wanted to use the copy of my old wallet.dat

When I launch the dogecoin-qt.exe I have this error: "couldn't open socket for incoming connections (socket returned error 87)" then "Failed to listen on any port. Use -listen=0 if you want this."

I added -listen=0 parameter to the dogecoin-qt.exe shortcut from my desktop and I was able to run it.

Unfortunately I still have problems: "0 active connections to Dogecoin networks".

I downloaded even the the bootstrap.dat from https://bootstrap.chain.so/ but my dogecoin wallet is still 54 weeks behind... Sad  The installation stuck at block 957001

In order to solve my issues, I did these without success:

- searched on Interned for help: no solution founded for my problem
- read docs about Dogecoin: the Troubleshooting section didn't help me too much
- asked for help on Reddit.com : NOBODY reply to meShocked
- firewall checked: OK, I even forwarded port 22556
- socks5: I don't use proxy connection
- created a dogecoin.conf file (which I didn't need it before on the old Dogecoin Core 1.08, the wallet synced properly) :

addnode=162.246.5.128:22556
addnode=104.236.149.112:22556
addnode=68.203.198.73:22556
addnode=91.121.172.69:22556
addnode=37.59.19.37:22556
addnode=83.87.162.162:22556
addnode=122.57.103.228:22556


- added the -listen=1 in .conf file : still no connections
- ran from Debug console the command: addnode eu.bootstrap.dogecoin-foundation.org:22556 onetry : still no connections

Have no ideas how to solve this mess.  Sad

BTW: I had the same problem with my Bitcoin Core installation too !!
