I have 20 connections.

This one is causing the problem I think, the only one on an older version and you can see that the bytes sent/recieved are extremely hihg:

Code:
                                             
        "addr" : "192.99.13.67:50394",            
        "services" : "00000003",                  
        "lastsend" : 1459109854,                  
        "lastrecv" : 1459109855,                  
        "bytessent" : 183272754934,                
        "bytesrecv" : 9404197537,                  
        "blocksrequested" : 2,                    
        "conntime" : 1458895868,                  
        "version" : 70002,                        
        "subver" : "/Satoshi:0.9.1.1/",            
        "inbound" : true,                          
        "startingheight" : 48642,                  
        "banscore" : 0                            
  

There is no command to disconnect this node.

Is there an option in the .conf file to ban a node. Like opposite to "addnode=" ?

What I have had to do in the past, since there is no direct ban that can be done in the config file, is manually block all in and out traffic of that specific IP address.

The node should auto ban for sending crap data, but since it is not actually sending bad data, but just asking over and over and over for data, it doesn't trigger the ban for that IP.

I shut down the node for now. I was never mining, just supporting the network... Hope the developers release a patch for this.
