Hey @gmarcotte3 , try to change the operating node. tools > edit node config > change the host to custom and try https://nodes.thetangle.org:443 or https://field.carriota.com:443.

Does the error message still appear?

[gmarcotte3]

doing that makes my balance go to zero, do I have to wait a long time before the thing syncs up? how do I know when it is fully synced up? status bar not very informative.

Hey @gmarcotte3 , attach some new receive addresses. Does the old balance come back?

[gmarcotte3]
