If you have trouble connecting to the network, and have followed the above instructions without getting anywhere, you are most likely to have encountered on of the below.
1. You are blocked by your antivirus
2. You are blocked by your firewall
3. You saved the bitbay.conf file in the wrong location or you saved it as a .txt file instead of a .conf file
Please check for that, and if you still have problems, let us know.
Edit: You need to restart the wallet after adding the conf file.
Hi Mate, thanks for trying to help. However, I checked all the above including the conf file and my qt wallet does not get any connection to sync :s I have quite a bit of BAYs and I want to get them out of the exchange however I can't. What else can I do? Thanks
I forgot to mention that installing somewhere else than default location can be the source of trouble too. If you installed to default location, I suggest you join us on slack

I downloaded the mkt client and it's synchronizing

however my blk001 weights 1mb does the bootstrap works here? where should I paste it? >bitbaydata? or bitbaydata>database
Cheers
Yes, bootstrap works. It was last updated a month or so ago. Bootstrap goes in same folder as your blk0001 file.
Use notepad, and write this:
bitbayd.exe -datadir=%CD%\bitbaydata -loadblock=%CD%\bootstrap.dat
Save as a bat file.
Dobbelclick it after saving to start it.
