Petition signed.Wallet syncing questions:
Is it possible (we need a volunteer) to check the clean (after deleting config, nodes, wallet etc.) installation of Windows ZIP packge?
Does the Wallet sync out-of-the box or not?
Questions about wallet syncing are quite often... can we sort it out for good?
I made a total reinstall of my computer 3 days ago, and my wallet was NOT syncing out-of-the-box using the .zip-file. I had to create a .conf-file since it wasn't any in the zip, and then add the nodes I mentioned above manually to get connections to the network.
Would be good to get feedback from more people though.
I've tried just about every addnode on the forums for noble and I cannot get any connections to the network. I'm not sure how to make sure a port is open as I'm sure that is the problem I am having with many of these coins.
Thanks for the suggestions!
Check your firewall? I synch without even a config file at all. No nodes needed.
It is being allowed through the firewall, I have also attempted turning them all off and opening the noblecoin client but I still am unable to connect to any nodes
Tired of leaving all my noble on exchanges/pools lol
Send them to me I'll hold them for you!
Seriously though, do you know how to use netstat? You can open a cmd window type netstat -an
Then open another cmd console
Open wallet
then type netstat -an again in the second console and compare the 2 to see what connections are attempted bye the wallet.

Thats the output after opening noble client and using netstat in the command prompt. Does SYN_SENT mean it is being blocked by a firewall?
Thanks for the help!
I believe 55884 is wallet port so it looks like you are trying to connect to 2 ip's and not getting a connection. Yes syn_sent means your system sent a handshake to that port on that address and is waiting on a response.
I just pinged both of those ip's and neither gave a response.
Post your addnode list and make sure you conf file is in your appdata/roaming/noblecoin directory and it is named noblecoin.conf
this is my path for example.
C:\Users\LicheLord\AppData\Roaming\NobleCoin\nobleCoin.conf
I am currently connected to these nodes by default. you can add them by hand if you want.

I don't think your wallet is finding your config file.
