My wallet has been backed up. I deleted the client and the file in Appdata/Roaming. I re-downloaded the .zip and ran the client, still nothing.
Could it be something with UPnP? Should I try the SOCKS proxy?
EDIT 1:I installed the feather coin client (0.6.4) on a windows 8 laptop I have and it too is not connecting to the network. My location is Ottawa, Ontario.
EDIT 2:I need to try the 0.6.3 client again to confirm its not the client. Any download links available?
