I'm not sure I remember the blocked port. It's been a while. I"ll check through my settings.

Well, as of now the answer doesn't even say anything about a blocked port. "Network issues" could be anything.

<p>I have just started up my client <i>GUIMiner</i> for the first time.  It was downloading the block chain without any issue and got up to 99% where it has been stuck for the past 1 to 1.5 hours.</p>

<p>Is this normal behavior?</p>

No, it is not normal.  Which client, and what version?  Can you try shutting it down and restarting the app?

Gotta love it when a port is blocked. I was using GUIMine which ought to add some connection timeout stuff.

If it is fixed, you should answer your own question. If not, you should post more here so we can try to help.

# GUIMiner stuck at 99% Done for over 1 hour

(Asked by: username_0 on 2012-04-24)

I have just started up my client *GUIMiner* for the first time. It was downloading the block chain without any issue and got up to 99% where it has been stuck for the past 1 to 1.5 hours.

Is this normal behavior?
