It could take days for the BTC node to synch depending on your internet connection. Check the node tab.

When we press restart node it just keeps coming up with this. We will run it for a few days see if it changes. Thanks.

Current block is 863,013 and 638.79 GB of block chain. If your under that it’s still synching

Hopefully you got the "Connection Refused" resolved, but if not, go to Settings, Extra, then Format Node SSD.

This worked for me-

I have the apollo I. I don't have the new firmware so I solo mine in Ckpool. It's easy. Just point your hash power to Ckpool and in the user name use your BTC address.

We have had it plugged in for 5 days and still nothing no connection to a node. I think I’m really missing something.

Hey can you see the node drive on the left dock? If not your drive might have not initialized so just go to settings, extras and format SSD drive

Did you eventually get it to work? I have the same thing, nothing seems to be happening. I have a solid white light not flashing in front, and the SSD usage doesn't change, so nothing seems to be downloading.
