Hey guys, here is a quick config file fix that you may need to do once you download one of the various POS type coin wallets for windows. Alot of time you will need to add a config file that contains additional node connections to get your wallet to sync up and download the blockchain so you can start using it. Without this step your wallet is useless.
In the example I use in the video for Embercoin here are the Node connections from my config file:
addnode=121.139.121.198:10024
addnode=134.255.227.59:10024
addnode=136.243.60.19:10024
addnode=14.50.188.177:10024
addnode=14.50.188.180:10024
addnode=14.50.188.181:10024
addnode=14.50.188.183:10024
addnode=145.130.170.169:10024
addnode=168.1.142.114:10024
addnode=172.104.129.232:10024
addnode=175.196.203.209:10024
addnode=175.202.55.220:10024
addnode=185.165.168.137:10024
addnode=195.181.241.146:10024
addnode=201.242.24.60:10024
addnode=211.187.180.52:10024
addnode=213.136.75.129:10024
addnode=213.154.231.39:10024
addnode=222.105.169.47:10024
addnode=24.151.95.186:10024
addnode=37.72.28.176:10024
addnode=45.56.93.70:10024
addnode=49.1.175.116:10024
addnode=66.70.144.250:10024
addnode=70.187.57.150:10024
addnode=74.118.192.18:10024
addnode=84.208.137.165:10024
addnode=85.175.216.200:10024
addnode=88.148.11.141:10024
addnode=91.134.166.76:10024
Happy Staking!
Thanks mate, this was helpful.
I can't get anyway near 30 connections. I find, also that if you mess with it too much, the wallet does not like that.
Changed peers.dat, added all nodes and extra ones manually, with and without the []!!!
Nightmare.
I have 7 million emb, so far in 2 weeks, 2 rewards of about $100. Hey, not bad.
I have followed you.

Hey Mike, im glad this could help you out. Yeah the peers.dat file works for the EMB wallet. But if thats not an option than adding nodes is always your best bet. So you are up and running now? As far as the staking goes 7mill EMB is good. But I would have thought you would have staked alot more in 2 weeks. I staked about $300 worth of EMB in 6 days with only 800k coins.

I work on a yacht with shit internet speed. We are on VSAT. I assume that is the main reason for my troubles. Not going to be connecting to our fat internet in miami beach marina for another ten bloody days.
Fuck sake. You need internet speed correct?

Correct Mike, any type of disruptions with the internet will causing issues while staking. You need a constant connection. Some people use virtual servers to house their wallets if you dont want to use a local PC or table.
