I have ran a few wallets before and added some nodes in a config.
Tried all posted a few pages ago and in op and still no connection on Window 7 64 bit.
I would recommended not putting the add nodes in the config. put them in the help/Debug window one by one. might be tedious but i know for a fact that works and has very little chance to fail. please keep me notified.
So should we just delete the conf file all together and add them all through debug? Cause I am starting to think this is a Win7 64bit bug. My son running windows 8 he has zero problems, I cant get any connections at all.
