Hi,

Try this, stop the client and remove peers.dat and ban.dat file.

Edit your datacoin.conf file to only have one ip to connect to;  connect=45.63.115.238

restart the client

if you want to add nodes in the conf file, the following nodes are active at this point

addnode=148.251.2.141
addnode=89.72.246.21
addnode=54.37.46.84
addnode=94.130.64.167
addnode=92.206.158.6
addnode=151.80.96.105
addnode=83.161.158.205
addnode=212.125.247.47
addnode=140.186.218.230
addnode=31.131.65.221
addnode=185.78.136.251
addnode=40.83.220.117
addnode=109.168.57.228
addnode=144.217.255.89

if all else fail, try to reindex

create a short cut for your client and set the target

C:\.......\datacoin-qt.exe -reindex

start the client with the shortcut
