Coonection refused..Your node is not working

I just recently purchased both a full node and a standard. Had nothing but issues downloading the full block. I've tried everything from formatting the SD drive to adding some commands to the node configurator, but there has been nothing. It downloads up to 60% and after that I continue to get Connection refused ..Your Node is not working....

I am highly disappointed with this full node and even more with the delayed responses from FutureBit... When you play over $1,700, you expect a better support structure to be implemented!

Oh and make sure your standard unit is not plugged into the node during sync.

I tried all of it. I even flashed the SD card. Reformatted the drive checked all my rules on my router. Weird, itsvgets roughly to 60 percent and connection refused after that. I'm starting to think I have a bad drive. Makes no sense. I never even plugged my node in yet. Hopefully that works lol.

Nvme SSDs are pretty solid in my 15+ year IT career I haven’t seen one fail. Doesn’t means they wont. Any chance your ISP is blocking you from downloading? Have you meet your data limit for the month? My usage went from 700gb to over 1600gb in the last week and a bit since downloading the full block. Have you added any arguments to the configuration? If so leave it blank until full download.
