How to get syncthing to actually start syncing

[Luke]

Well, its a bit hard to tell without a log. Regarding your ethernet question; have you updated the kernel ? 

Pipe to logger and come back with what you have - create this script (suggest you set it to start at boot): 

Code:

#!/bin/sh

export HOME=/home/ubuntu
export STNORESTART=1
setuidgid jb /home/jb/bin/syncthing 2>&1 | logger -t syncthing
