Hi Bitcoiners! I am trying to run my own full node (Bitcoin Core software). I bought a normal PC laptop (13th Gen Intel (R) Core(TM) i5.13420H 2.10GHz, 16 GB, Windows 11 Home
and a Seagate 1TB hard disk to run it. I am running it in my house with the house's wifi.
In the beginning, the downloading and syncing are going well. The progress is around 1% per hour. I thought I would finish this process in about a week. However, starting around the 80% mark, the progress grind to a halt..like so slow (0.01% per hour) and I wonder what happened. I checked the Node window and found out that my machine can't find any nodes to share and download anymore.

Anyone knows/encountered this problem before? how should I go about solving this so that I can get my node complete. Should I upgrade my Bitcoin Core to version 27.0.0? Is it because I am running on a normal ip address so it can't access the Tor / Onion network? Is it because I am running it in Thailand and there are too few nodes? https://bitnodes.io/nodes/all/countries/1d/#google\_vignette
Any suggestions are appreciated!
