Suggestion : Build in fault tolerance #28

If the node which the Nano wallet is trying to use is not available or not responding as expected could the wallet query and dynamically change to another Supernode?

The benefit being clients are not dependent on a single node when several hundred now exist

Hi,

Yes, after 10 fails (~10s) it could select another node if you want. For now when a node is down it just keeps trying to connect to it.

The benefit being clients are not dependent on a single node when several hundred now exist

You are not dependent of a single node as you can switch for any other you want via "node" in navbar.

Only team nodes are in the nodes list but I will add Supernodes soon.

Thanks @QuantumMechanics

I was trying to suggest a dynamic shift in the wallet client to another node rather than manually changing in the Node navbar. This is based on a few problems be reported by users in Telegram channels
