  Possibly it could be menthioned in the geting started /store guide that siac exists, but I can see the benifit of not doing it. Hereby keeping the text shorter and as simple as possible. Anyhow think about it.

  The renter/ folder is about all you need, just move that from one computer to the other.

  @kennyb That is awesome that it started working, who would figure just a simple fresh install fix's it :). I would say it took 48 hours to show on siapulse. Glad you got it fixed bud.

  Announcing with a domain name

  Been doing a bit more reading on this.

  I found lots of old forum threads where Taek is talking about hosts identifiying themselves by public key rather than IP address.

  This makes it sound like announcing with a domain name is not neccessary.. Or won't be neccessary in the future.

  What I'm struggling to work out is if this code is already in the apps or if it's just on the roadmap.

  Can anyone confirm if renters will still be able to find me after my IP changes, I'm using the latest version of the software (UI 1.0.2)

  Hi,

  I have set up an account on another computer - my laptop - but didn't save the new password generated by Sia. How can I clean up my laptop and start again? Each time I start again the option to create a new wallet doesn't exist but opens the new wallet and asks for a password I don't have. How can I get around this?

  Thanks

  Hi, thanks for taking the time to give us a shot. As you are saying, Sia is still experimental software. The 1.0 is a bit confusing because we are using sematic versioning - we've settled on the API and made a compatibility promise to our developers.

  Sia has protections against power loss, but currently there is definitely no way to recover your renter and host folders using just a wallet seed. In general, losing power should not cause you to lose your storage contracts or your renter files. I'm not sure what exactly went wrong on your machine, but Windows in general is much worse at providing safety against power-loss than Linux (there's not much we can do about that - Windows just doesn't support the operations you need to make it safe without also making it extremely slow).

  For the near future, Sia does not have an easy way to share files. Once it does, you should be able to upload a small file and then have someone else download it from the same host in under 1 second, though it really depends on how big the file is and how fast your internet connection is. Optimized setups can probably get down to around 300ms, but again that's not going to be supported for a good while.

  Hi, Sia does not currently handle such large amounts of data very well. Over time, your contracts will stall, which is almost certainly what has happened here. We will have a few improvements in the next version (v1.0.2), and a ton of improvements in v1.1.0.

  Thanks for trying Sia out! Sorry that your data upload did not go well.

  Think I've found the bug when going through the host json settings log. I'll add supporting data at the bottom but would appreciate clarification.

  My constant announcement spend is due to Siac switching IP address' between my IPv4 and IPv6 address (even though I have a static address). I have no idea why every couple of hours it is unhappy with the previous settings it chose, but none the less it's gleefully spent a few thousand Sia for me, as each time it does this it sends a new announcement.

  As a temporary fix I've disabled IPv 6 in my windows network adapter settings, (as I need to use ipv4 to connect to other devices on my network through my browser) but are the developers able to implement a more permanent fix. I'm not sure how many others this will affect in the future, but can siac only recognise either ipv4 or ipv6 to resolve any future conflicts.

  Regards,
  Dan

  Below shows the host log constant entries switching between IPv4 and 6. It is just a snapshot as the whole file is very large. It's in it's origional formatting with newest entries at the bottom.
