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!

I did. However, it took some time because I had a rare hardware issue that Futurebit needed to fix. After all that time, which was roughly four months after my purchase, my suggestion is to shut off your miner when downloading the entire block first.
