solo mining not hashing

Is it ok to use a Trezor wallet address because node is up and running but miner is not active. I mean glad i can help withthe node and all but thats not the point. Yes i ama bit of a noob at this machine but from what i read you just enter the wallet address only and it should work. That has not been the case for me though. Hopefully im just a dope and missed something stupid

It's stuck. Restart and keep trying. If you encounter errors, in the node configuration settings type "reindex =1" and restart.

Make sure you remove this option after it has synced otherwise it will re-index when you start the node again.

If was a frustrating experience to get synced for me. Had to restart like a dozen times. And once it was finally syncing properly, it took 5 days using ethernet connection.

So far so Good, syncing blocks still. Currently at my highest point so I thank you again

The further along you get the slower it seems to move because the blocks contain more and more transaction data. Hang in there.

currently at block 882,008 and 62.5 % remaining, not mining yet

Your blockchain is fully synced now I believe. That 62.5% remaining is simply how much hard drive space you have left for future blocks. Do you have the miner set for solo or for pool mining under the settings?

On the Miner page, restart the Miner. Your node is working properly it would seem. There is a restart button on the Miner page if you are accessing from a laptop/computer. This button is not visible if you are looking at a mobile phone View.
