Only wallet on default port can work as node.
Add port 7685 to router manually, because in current version removed UPnP.
I added these nodes but it didn't help it to sync. Can someone upload a bootstrap?
Maybe we can use
www.crypto-city.com as an official site for bootstraps?
Just because I want to learn about this more, I'm not running what might be a node so I don't think this applies to me.
But in login page of router and when I go to port forwarding and add it has an IP set up. I mine with some ASICS but do not know much about adding ports and such. I'm using Windows 7. In my netgear setup area, it has me determine what Service Name (FTP, HTTP, etc) and a server IP address with the first three numbers filled in. "Port 7685" does not look like and option for that address. 192.168.1. is the type of address I'm using. I'm probably mixing apples and oranges but that is what my router is first presenting me.
Why did this all change a month or two ago?
To trouble shoot the sync issue, check you have the latest version 2.3 of the wallet.
Then delete everything out of the .BottleCaps folder except wallet.dat and BottleCaps.conf
in BottleCaps.conf edit it to look like below (you will need the rpc setting if you're solo mining)
#rpc
rpcuser=x
rpcpassword=x
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=8385
# nodes
addnode=65.102.140.118
addnode=65.102.140.122
addnode=178.128.53.162
Save the file and start the wallet. It should start to sync up now. It can take a few minutes to connect up to the peers at times, so leave it run for a bit.
if you still have any issues let me know and I will get a bootstrap up for you.
