I still have 0 connections after an hour even with the entire list of nodes.
the config file should be named "Ember.conf" right? Or is it "Embercoin.conf" ?
Look if you have a peers.dat in the same directory, delete that after shutting down the wallet. Then restart.
I just did, not result unfortunately, most of the time only 1 connection then back to 0. One year left to sync. Other wallets work fine on the same pc. Any idea what to do? Maybe a copy of your nodes list?
May be you are on the wrong old chain. Did you update your wallet to the latest version and did you follow the instructions that came with it (incl. nodes/peers)?
